Licensed therapist Jessica Turner returns to the Four Bars podcast to share her expert insights on the complexities of family dynamics during the holidays. Discover the keys to mastering the often-challenging art of setting boundaries and maintaining communication with loved ones. We promise that by the end of this episode, you'll have a toolkit full of strategies for creating a supportive environment, whether with your biological family or your chosen one. Jessica also opens up about her transition from working with children to focusing on adult therapy, providing a unique perspective on how understanding human development can shape our interactions.

In our conversation, we put the spotlight on the importance of self-awareness and the role of storytelling in healing and relationship-building. Nostalgia emerges as a powerful ally in bridging divides and fostering genuine connections. As we navigate these themes, we also discuss the need to hold firm yet realistic personal boundaries without over-explaining or assuming negative intent. Jessica’s expertise helps us recognize when to step back or gently remind others of agreed-upon limits, ensuring a peaceful and rewarding holiday season for everyone involved. Join us and transform your approach to holiday gatherings into a more mindful and joyous experience.
