Have you ever felt a pang of grief during the holidays? The sixth episode of our 12 Days of Podmas on the Five Years Time is a candid exploration of that very feeling. I, your host Grace, unpack the emotional intensity that comes with memories of past Christmases and loved ones no longer with us. This is not just a conversation about grief and loss, it's a deeper, more nuanced discussion about how we reconcile the nostalgia, joy, and sadness that permeates the holiday season.
What does it mean to grieve for past memories, places, and the relationships we've left behind? In the first section of the episode, we delve into this. I share my personal experiences of navigating through a season of celebration with a heavy heart, along with the coping mechanisms that have been my anchor. I also touch on something many might not expect: my journey with psoriasis. Here, I provide some practical advice for managing the skin condition during winter.
But it's not all about the heaviness of grief. As we progress, we shift our focus to the livelier traditions of the holiday season. We talk about my favourite holiday drink, the whiskey sour, and even offer variations of this classic cocktail that you could try. While acknowledging the mix of emotions that the season may bring, the episode serves as a reminder to celebrate the present while honouring our past. Join us as we continue our countdown to Christmas, and let's keep the conversation going in your DMs. Christmas is about connection, after all. So, let's connect.
