Episode 2 - Big Beautiful Boundaries for your Holiday Season
from Shrink Rap · host Kristin Cook and Elena Roth
Buckle up, Buttercups, we're talking boundaries for your holiday gatherings. We’re getting real about boundaries—not the Instagram-quote version, but the lived, messy, human kind. You know… the ones that sound great in theory and then get completely tested the moment you’re in the same room as your family, your in-laws, or that one friend who still doesn’t quite “get it.”Join us as two therapists who are very much in the trenches with you. We talk through what boundaries actually are, why they matter more than we often admit, and how to set or maintain them without feeling like you’re ruining the vibe or becoming the “difficult one.” We also share what gets in the way for us personally—because therapists struggle with this stuff too—and how we practice boundary-setting in our own lives.With the 2025 holiday season on the horizon, we’ll look at the tricky situations many of us are already anticipating, and offer grounded, compassionate strategies you can take into conversations, gatherings, and group chats.This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being honest with yourself, kind to your nervous system, and a little more intentional than last year. We're glad you're here.
