172. How to Navigate Grief and Gratitude During the Holiday Season

Send us a text

In this episode, we're exploring the complicated dance between grief and gratitude during the holiday season—a time that can feel emotionally conflicting, overwhelming, or even isolating after loss. 

I break down:
✨ Why it’s normal to feel both thankful and heartbroken
✨ Challenges the pressure to “just be grateful"
✨ Grounded strategies for navigating holiday gatherings, expectations, and triggers while still honoring your grief

You’ll hear gentle reminders about releasing perfection, embracing the messiness that this season can bring, and making space for hope, self-compassion, and whatever feelings are showing up. 

I'm here to offer encouragement, community, and practical tools to help you move through these weeks with a little more ease, presence, and emotional clarity. Don't forget to check out the first four episodes of this series, too!
