Dealing with the holidays as estranged parents can be challenging, but it's possible to navigate this time with self-care, communication, and thoughtful planning. In this episode, we explore the unique pressures and triggers of family celebrations to help estranged parents survive the holidays.
Remember, the key is to prioritize your well-being and the well-being of your adult children. I encourage you to seek support and make decisions that will contribute to a more positive and manageable holiday experience.
