This is the time of year when families gather to celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s or whatever holiday you customarily honor. How do you handle the stress of the holidays? Do you spend your entire holiday season rushing around to different family-member’s houses just to appease everyone? If you don’t go, does your family send you on endless guilt trips by trying to make you feel like you don’t care about them? Have you ever wondered how you could find a middle ground so you could stay at home and celebrate with your own family and, for once, enjoy your holiday time without alienating other family members or feeling pressured?
Mordant takes a night off as McFall, with his Guest Host, LaLa Zigfreid, discuss the trials and tribulations of “Family Matters” as Thanksgiving rapidly approaches.
Tonight Charles (McFall) shares his situation of dutifully suffering for years with demands from his family – eventually blowing up over the stress, the two years of silence that followed, and finally calling a truce that everyone seems to be able to successfully live with. Guest Host LaLa Zigfreid offers up her own experiences as an adopted child where she never felt a part of the family. LaLa goes on to share how she’s turning all her negatives into positives and getting so much more from her holidays than she once did.
