287. Embracing “Good Enough” Holidays

Heather Avis

How do you handle the grief that comes with unmet holiday expectations? As we dive into the holiday season, many of us wrestle with the dream of a “perfect” celebration that doesn’t match reality. In this episode, we’re having an honest conversation about releasing those high expectations, navigating the challenges and grief that come with letting go of the idealized holiday image, and discovering joy in what is rather than what could have been. From coping with unplanned moments to redefining traditions and setting boundaries with family, we’re exploring how to create a meaningful, authentic holiday season that works for you. Don’t miss this heartfelt discussion!
