We are knocking on the doors of Christmas and trying to capture the magic, but not get sucked into the world of comparisons and feeling like we didn’t do enough for our family, friends, and especially our kids.
The holiday season ushers in lots of good stuff, like joy and memory making— but if we aren’t careful it can all feel like insurmountable pressure. We hope as you listen wherever you are on your journey- you’ll be reminded that the real magic of the holidays is spending time with your people. We hope you laugh with us this episode and are reminded— no one’s kids are going to therapy later in life over what Santa or the damn elf brought— so relax, make some hot chocolate, play some games and love your people.
