season 2: holiday anxiety, pressure & spending the holidays alone (again)

25 Nov 2025

Description

In this first episode of Season 2, I get honest about something I’ve avoided talking about for years: the holidays.Not the cute, cozy, Instagram version the real version.The anxiety, the loneliness, the pressure, the grief of not having the childhood holiday story you were “supposed” to have… the weird mix of nostalgia and sadness when December rolls around. And what it feels like to spend the holidays alone, again, as a single nomadic woman rebuilding her life from scratch.I talk about how holidays have changed for me, why they never felt like home, what I wish holidays actually looked like as adults and the power of rewriting the narrative. If the holidays make you feel heavy, tender, disconnected, or just plain weird… you’re not alone.Welcome to Season 2 after a year of NO CONTACT xoxo The unfiltered era.
