In this impromptu episode of Between Beauty and Heartache, Chassie offers a heartfelt message for those navigating the holiday season with a dysfunctional family dynamic. With Thanksgiving approaching, she encourages listeners to honor the emotional complexity of the holidays while also taking breaks to connect with the beauty and joy around them. Chassie shares the importance of focusing on what feels good—whether that’s safe friendships, moments of quiet reflection, or taking care of your body when emotions feel overwhelming or triggered. She also provides practical tips for staying grounded during family gatherings, such as stepping away to reconnect with yourself, looking in the mirror, placing a hand over your heart, and offering comfort to your inner child. This episode is a gentle reminder that self-care and self-connection are essential for navigating the emotional rollercoaster of the season.
Chassie references Yoga with Adriene in this episode as a helpful way to tend to your body.
Aundi Kolber is referenced in this episode. Just following her on instagram is a way Chassie feels encouraged, but she has many books and helpful resources for you to explore being softer with yourself.
