10 | Surviving the Holidays
from Burnout to Thriving · host Cecilia Mannella
Finding the holidays hard to navigate? It's okay to find ways to survive the holidays. We often think the holidays are full of magic and sparkly lights. But for many people, the holidays are a reminder of loss, grief, loneliness, and change. Struggling through the holidays is more common than you think - it usually comes down to all the unrealistic expectations we hold for this time of year. There's so much pressure to make the season magical that we often forget that Christmas is ONE day of the year AND we don't have to kill ourselves to get through it. In this episode, we cover the different challenges faced at this time of year and simple yet practical ways to survive all the pressure.
