The holiday season is *not* a free pass to wipe away toxic behavior and pretend all is well. So many messages tell us that “Because it's Christmas” we should make things right, even if it's not our wrong to correct. Sure, sometimes there are petty family squabbles that can be put aside in the name of love, but when it comes to whyte súprémacy, there is no free pass.

In this week's episode, I talk about how it's important to honor ourselves and our healing journey, to not give our power away, to break family expectations, and to set boundaries with everyone, especially that terrible uncle. Tune in!
