Hi, Welcome to the young widow podcast and thank you for joining me today for Episode 20: Holiday Anxiety in Grief.
I am Britany your host and happy you could join today. Today I want to talk through Holiday anxiety – and why it is only October? It is so very normal in grief to experience anxiety – especially the first and second year WEEKS ahead of the actual holidays itself. So today we are going to talk about
- Why does this happen so early
- What kinds of things can be triggering
- What kinds of things can I do to plan for it
- What expectations should I have for myself and others
If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or like you’re stuck in this,, you’re not alone. I want this episode to be a real, raw conversation between us. No fluff, no platitudes—just some honest talk and actionable things that helped me and might help you too.
I know there’s a lot of pressure out there to feel a certain way or act a certain way around the holidays but we are going to break it all down
