There is something about the holidays that makes everything feel closer to the surface. The lights, the music, the memories.

After divorce, the holidays do not just arrive. They land. And for many of us, they land heavy.

In this episode, I talk honestly about why the holiday season can feel so different after betrayal and divorce. We explore changing family dynamics, grief that resurfaces this time of year, decorating and traditions that no longer feel the same and the quiet emotional weight that comes with navigating the season after your life has changed.

If the holidays feel harder than you expected this year, this episode is for you. You are not broken. You are not failing. And you are not alone.

If this episode resonated with you, please consider sharing it with someone who might need it this season. And be sure to follow the podcast so you do not miss upcoming episodes focused on healing, motherhood, and rebuilding life after divorce.
