In this second episode of Navigating the Holidays with Tricky People, we’re talking all about boundaries—what they are, what they aren’t, and why they can feel so dang hard to set, especially around family. Kristen breaks down a simple metaphor that helps make boundaries more concrete, names common boundary myths, and offers practical examples for setting limits around your time, your body, your kids, and your space.
Whether you're thinking about leaving early, skipping the drama, or just quietly opting out of hard conversations—this episode will help you prepare for whatever gatherings lie ahead.
