EP14: When Holidays Hurt Rewriting Old Wounds With New Boundaries and ReParenting

Описание: 🎙️ EP 14: When Holidays Hurt — Rewriting Old Wounds With New Boundaries

For many of us, the holidays aren’t just celebrations — they’re emotional time machines.

In this episode of (re)Parenting Radio, Lisa Watson explores how early holiday experiences shape people-pleasing, self-abandonment, and the pressure to perform — and how boundaries can become one of the most powerful ways we reparent ourselves.

Through her own story, Lisa reframes boundaries (or “guardrails”) as acts of emotional safety, not rejection. She shares how choosing not to participate in traditions that hurt her nervous system became the moment her inner child finally felt protected.

This episode is for you if:

The holidays bring guilt, pressure, or dread
You feel torn between honoring yourself and disappointing others
You’re learning to set boundaries without shame
You want traditions rooted in connection, not obligation

You’ll learn:
Why guilt often shows up when you’re doing something right
How people-pleasing is a survival response, not a flaw
How to choose authenticity over performance
Why boundaries are bridges back to yourself

💛 Mantra: My boundaries are bridges, not walls.
