Holiday Stress: Finding Peace Amidst Addiction and Codependency

Navigating addiction & codependency amplifies the usual holiday stress.
The festive season is supposed to be joyful, but for those grappling with addiction or codependency, it can be anything but. In this episode of the Recovery Rebirth Podcast, hosts Jillian Maas Backman and Zach Mathers tackle the unique stressors that come with the holidays. From financial pressures and overscheduling to the emotional toll of family gatherings, they leave no stone unturned.
The winter months also bring the added challenge of seasonal affective disorder (SAD), which can amplify feelings of anxiety and depression already common in those on the recovery journey. Through a blend of personal stories and expert advice, Jillian and Zach offer practical strategies to help you simplify your holiday plans, set healthy boundaries, and discover moments of joy amidst the chaos.
They also discuss the often-overlooked impact of social media on holiday stress and provide tips for navigating relationships during this time—whether you're single, co-parenting, or in a new relationship. This episode isn't just about managing stress; it's about finding peace and creating a supportive environment for yourself and your loved ones. So, if the holiday season feels overwhelming, tune in to learn how to navigate these challenges with grace and resilience.
