EP 7 - Deck the Halls Not Your Family: Holiday Season Struggles

from I've Got Something To Say · host Kourtney

Send us Fan MailThe holidays are magical… unless you’re stressed, broke, grieving, overstimulated, or trapped in a room with relatives who ask wildly inappropriate questions. So basically, unless you’re a Hallmark movie character.In this episode of I’ve Got Something to Say, I talk about the very real hardships that come with the holiday season - forced cheer, family chaos, financial pressure, loneliness, and that strange expectation that you’re supposed to be thriving just because there’s tinsel involved. Spoiler alert: you don’t have to be.This isn’t a “count your blessings” lecture. It’s a laugh-through-the-pain conversation about why the holidays can suck sometimes, why that’s totally normal, and why surviving December deserves just as much credit as enjoying it. If you’ve ever cried in a Target parking lot or dissociated during a family dinner, this one’s for you. Reminder to Subscribe wherever you listen to Podcast!! New Episodes EVERY Friday! Facebook- I've Got Something to SayInstagram - @ivegotsomethingtosaypodTik Tok- @ivegotsomething2say
