Torie breaks down:
-
Why so many adult children of toxic parents procrastinate holiday planning (and how that backfires)
-
How to build new holiday traditions that your family can’t ruin
-
Why your “holiday pie” needs more slices that have nothing to do with your family
-
How to set yourself up for a season that’s calmer, more grounded, and actually yours
