The holiday season is here! Before you start freaking out about how to handle your dysfunctional family…Relax, I am here to help.

As much as I love a peppermint latte or a festive throw pillow, the holidays can be really rough. This week on Trying To Figure It Out, I'm dishing out my Holiday Survival Guide to get you through these next few weeks.

I share what Thanksgiving and Christmas were like in my family growing up with divorced parents, and I walk you through all the ways I've learned to cope when things start to fall apart over turkey and gravy. In this episode, you'll learn how to deal with your nosy aunt who won't stop asking you prying questions. You'll learn ways to protect your peace and set boundaries and how to make the holidays feel special even when your family doesn't look like the ones in Hallmark Christmas movies. Lastly, I spill all the details about the 25 Days of Christmas Instagrams that I'm (re)launching this year. Cozy up with your favorite holiday bevvy and enjoy!
