Joining us today is Kelly Benford, our Program Director. Kelly shares with us some tips and tricks for surviving the holiday season as a parent. With topics such as managing your stress, blended families, divorce/co-parenting, gift recommendations for kids, expectations and self-care, there is a little something for everyone to take away from this holiday-themed episode.

Perhaps one of the most important tips Kelly gives us is that positive stress is still stress, and it’s important to regulate your energy so that you can be there to help support your child in regulating their own energy during such a busy season.

Disclaimer- Santa is mentioned in this episode if listening around children.
