Are you looking forward to being with your family over the holidays? Or are you dreading the next family get together?
Family drama can not only ruin the holiday spirit, it can create unnecessary hurt and division in a family that’s felt for years to come.
John and Lynn designed this episode to help you identify the pain points that lead to family drama:
Unrealistic expectations
“Hot topic” conversations
Complex family logistics
Strained relationships
This episode offers strategies to help you cope with potential family drama such as:
Setting boundaries
Practicing self-care
Focusing on the positives
Engaging in fun activities
Taking breaks
Accepting family imperfection
Limiting alcohol consumption
Seeking outside support
Having your own family holiday
This is the first episode in our new series “Keeping Your Sanity Over the Holidays”, and will allow you to prepare for (or avoid!) family drama and enjoy some holiday spirit.
