Description:

If Christmas feels heavy this year, this episode is for you. Whether you're grieving a breakup, navigating your first holiday without your kids, mourning a loved one, processing a miscarriage, or simply feeling an ache you can't explain, know that you're not alone. The festive season can magnify both joy and pain, and it's okay if yours feels more tender than merry. I share my own experiences with loss and the reminder that grief and celebration can exist side by side—you can laugh with your children and cry in private, decorate the tree and miss the person who used to be there. This is your space to breathe, feel, and remember that however you show up this season, you're doing enough.
