The holidays are a time of magic, love, and connection. Unfortunately, the crises in our lives don’t stop just because it is the holidays.
This episode is all about equipping you with the tools and language needed to gracefully handle situations with non-affirming individuals. We'll use the guide "The Language of LGBTQIA+" to understand the terminology your child or friend might use. Alongside this, we'll discuss the importance of maintaining presence with all kids, investing quality time with your partner, and nurturing a sense of gratitude to keep the positivity alive, even amidst chaotic times.
But there's more. We'll debunk common misbeliefs propagated by non-affirming individuals and learn how to respond to them. You'll discover how to provide essential support to LGBTQ+ individuals during the holiday season, and I'll share some self-care tips that have proved to be lifesavers during holiday crises. And last but certainly not least, we'll explore the transformative power of gratitude. Take the time to amplify the positive, find peace amidst chaos, and embrace the holidays in all their messy wonder.
Don't miss this heartwarming and empowering conversation - it'll leave you feeling ready to embrace the holiday season with open arms and an open heart.
