Holiday Harmony or Emotional Hostage? Setting Boundaries Without Ruining the Season

Holiday parties, internet trolls, and that one toxic relative at Thanksgiving… we hit it all in this episode. 🎯 Sara and Kira recap their packed end-of-year networking party, introduce a new segment called “What Is Stopping Our Scroll?”, and break down some wild online moments—from a woman driving three hours to confront a racist commenter at his job, to H-Mart discourse and calling out bigotry in real life. Then they dive into the bigger question: Do you really have to “let” harmful relatives be who they are for the sake of family peace? Or is it okay to set hard boundaries, skip gatherings, and protect your kids (and yourself) from racist, homophobic, or just plain toxic behavior? They talk: Holiday parties that actually work for parents Why “free speech” doesn’t mean free from consequences The pressure to “keep the peace” vs calling out harm Kids, boundaries, and breaking generational curses A little music & media joy: Olivia Dean, K-Pop Demon Hunters & 50 Cent-level petty 😅
