A holiday survival-ish guide, plus subscription sale ends THIS WEEKEND!
MY SUBSCRIPTION SALE ENDS THIS SUNDAY, DECEMBER 1ST! This is your final reminder, since I don’t want to add to the hellish influx in your inbox this weekend. UPGRADE NOW to a paid annual subscription and get 20% off—that’s $48/year instead of $60 AND it’s 33% cheaper than subscribing monthly.

I suppose it makes sense, holidays are lousy with emotional buttons, especially when it comes to our roles and relationships like motherhood, marriage, separation, and divorce.
I’m sharing some of my favorites from the archives—truly none of my holidays have been anything alike over the past 5 years—and below those posts are a few favorites from other writers too. This post might be too long for email so make sure to head here or here for the full version. There are even more holiday posts in the HSS archive, including a hangover cure. Yes, it works.

Happy holidays, everyone. Ready or not here we go—

You can find my work for brands here.
You can find me wasting time on Instagram and now on Bluesky too.
