Ep 181: Anger, Grief, and Gratitude: A Survivor’s Guide to the Holiday Season
Do you ever feel like you “should” be grateful, especially around the holidays — but underneath, you’re still angry, grieving, or exhausted?
You’re not doing anything wrong. You’re being human.
This episode explores how gratitude and anger can coexist, why both are valid, and how making room for all of your emotions can actually support your healing after abuse and during post-separation parenting.
In This Episode, We Talk About:
- Why this season can intensify conflicting emotions
- How anger can point to your deepest values
- How to use curiosity and a non-judgemental stance to allow the difficult feelings to coexist with gratitude and peace
- Grounding practices and reflections that allow you to connect with yourself
- How to create holiday traditions that reflect your current reality
- The power of emotional honesty
- Ways to hold space for hope without dismissing your pain
