EPISODE 5 | NOVEMBER 10, 2026 | 12 MINUTES
The holidays are supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year. But they don't feel that way for everyone.
For some, this season brings joy and connection. For others, it's an empty chair, complicated family relationships, loneliness, or reminders of a life that looks different from the one they imagined.
In Episode 5, Sandy Kaminski explores why the same holiday season can feel so different for each of us—and what happens when we try to change how someone else is feeling instead of understanding their experience.
