Unwrapping Joy

In this holiday episode, Toni and Hettie explore the tender territory of grief and joy during a season that can feel both magical and achingly heavy. They discuss how beloved traditions can unexpectedly trigger sorrow, why guilt often surfaces when happiness returns, and how we can "unwrap joy" through intentional rituals, storytelling, service, creativity, and connection. Blending personal stories, practical strategies, and gentle humor, they offer a reassuring reminder: grief and joy can coexist—and honoring both can make the holidays more healing and hopeful.
