Conversations I Heard This Week: Christmas Edition

Send us Fan MailIn this Christmas Week episode of Navigating Between the Lines, Maggie Feil reflects on the conversations she had — and overheard — during one of the busiest, most emotionally loaded weeks of the year. From exhausted moms in Target, to the pressure to do more and be more, to the quiet grief that can sit just beneath the surface in December, this episode is a reminder that a lot of us are carrying more than we let on.Maggie talks about mental load, comparison, simplifying the season, and giving yourself permission to opt out of what doesn’t feel good — all while holding space for joy, tradition, and perspective shifts that bring us back to what really matters.The episode ends with a special guest: Maggie’s nine-year-old daughter, Chloe, who shares her thoughts on Christmas, kindness, giving, and what the season is really about — followed by a rapid-fire Q&A that turned into one of Maggie’s favorite recording moments to date.A Christmas episode about slowing down, being human, and remembering that it’s not about what you’re doing — it’s about who you’re with.https://www.instagram.com/navigatingbetweenthelinesAI Chapters:00:00 Holiday Chaos and Reflections07:04 Navigating Holiday Emotions08:30 The Importance of Perspective09:09 A Child's View on ChristmasSupport the show
