38. When it comes to the holidays, we all have different ideas about how they should go. Some of us love traditions, while others like to shake them up each year. There is no right or wrong way to do the holidays, as each of us gets the opportunity to create a holiday season that aligns with our values and feels like a fit.
What's your style of doing the holidays? Are you a bit of a Grinch or a Cindy Lou Who? No matter whether you choose to observe or completely opt out of the holiday season, realize it's your choice!
In this episode, we discuss:
- How our family approaches the holiday season
- What has (and hasn't) worked over the years in discovering our style
- Modeling healthy behaviors for your kids around the holidays
- Choosing which holidays to celebrate and how
- Using the holidays for reflection, connection, and planning
- Coping with all the mixed feelings that arise this time of year
...and more!
