In this episode, join Lisa and her friend, psychologist Dr. Kelly for some encouragement and peace. They talk honestly about what it’s like to move through Thanksgiving, holiday gatherings, and Christmas when your heart feels heavy.
Dr. Kelly offers practical help and hope with navigating relationships, loss, and healing.
