E125: Navigating Toxic Family Dynamics Around The Holidays

The holidays are supposed to be a time of joy, but for those with toxic family dynamics, they can feel overwhelming, triggering, or downright exhausting. In this episode, I’m sharing my top 10 tips for navigating toxic families during the holidays so you can prioritize your peace, protect your mental health, and even find moments of joy amidst the chaos.

From setting clear boundaries and limiting your time to having a foolproof exit strategy and creating your own traditions, we’ll dive into practical tools that help you stay grounded in tough situations. We’ll also explore the power of practicing empathy (even if just for a day) and how avoiding reactive behaviors can make a big difference.

Whether you need guidance on handling difficult conversations, ideas for protecting your energy, or just reassurance that it’s okay to say no to gatherings that harm your well-being, this episode will empower you to face the holidays with confidence and calm.

Tune in for actionable advice that will help you reclaim control over your holiday season while honoring your boundaries and healing journey.
