The holidays are often painted as the happiest time of the year, but what happens when they’re not? In this episode, I’m opening up about the challenges of navigating the season when you're missing someone you love or carrying the weight of a tough year.

I’ll share the lessons I’ve learned from my own journey, practical tips to help you protect your peace, and comforting advice I wish I had during my first holiday season without my mom. Whether you're grieving, feeling overwhelmed, or just struggling to find joy, this episode is here to remind you that you’re not alone, and it’s okay to celebrate the holidays on your own terms.
