Feeling the holiday blues? You're not alone. The festive season, although joyous, often brings with it an array of emotional challenges – from stress and loneliness to the burden of gift-giving. Together with my special guest, psychiatrist  Dr. Atasha Jordan, we're breaking down the complexities of mental health during this time.

Dr. Atasha lends her invaluable knowledge on the subject, helping us differentiate between holiday blues and depression. We delve into coping mechanisms for those dealing with loss as the bells jingle, reminding us of the importance of tailored support. In the face of the pandemic, we touch on the heightened stress factors and the importance of proactive mental health care. From a Christian perspective, we also explore the spiritual solace that can be sought in challenging times.

As we navigate this unique holiday season, we also address the financial pressures accompanying the spirit of giving. We provide helpful strategies for maintaining connections with loved ones, while also prioritizing health and safety. We wrap up our conversation by sharing personal strategies to uplift spirits during these trying times, recalling the simple joy found in childhood hobbies and activities. Tune in for a heart-to-heart conversation that will leave you feeling equipped and ready to face the holiday season, cherishing the moments with your loved ones and nurturing your mental health.
