Episode 11: If It’s Not Awkward, Is It Even Christmas?

Holiday traditions, questionable gift choices, and the kind of family chaos you only survive with wine.

This week, we’re diving headfirst into Christmas memories — the good, the weird, and the “why did we ever think this was a good idea?” From food that should absolutely be illegal to gift-giving mishaps that still haunt us, we’re unpacking the traditions that shaped us… and the ones we’re still trying to escape.

We also get real about fostering, chosen family, and how opening your home can completely rewrite the rules of what “family” looks like. Turns out, magic doesn’t come from perfection — it comes from showing up, burning the roast, and loving whoever’s sitting at the table.

If you’re navigating holidays, nostalgia, and the art of creating new traditions (without losing your mind), this episode is for you.

🎧 Laugh, reminisce, and maybe steal a tradition or two — because after 50, we’re keeping the magic and rewriting the rules.
