Do You Feel Like You Have To Brace Yourself To Be With Family For The Holidays?
Maybe you already know who is going to set you off.
You tell yourself not to expect too much.
You try not to take things personally.
You promise yourself, This year, I'm just going to enjoy it...or survive it.
And then something happens.
Someone says the thing.
You feel left out.
The day doesn't look the way you hoped it would.
Or the holidays remind you of something you've lost—or something you wish you had.
And suddenly, you're right back in the hurt, disappointment, frustration, or longing you told yourself you weren't going to feel this year.
But what if experiencing the holidays differently didn't require your family to be different?
That's what I want to talk about with you.
Because I don't want to teach you how to just survive another holiday season.
I want to show you why these moments can affect you so deeply—and a different way to navigate them.
Here's What We're Going To Talk About
🔑 Expectations - Why do the holidays bring up so many expectations—even when you know better?
🔑 Pain - Why can being with family bring up emotions you thought you were past?
🔑 Joy - How do you make room for joy when parts of the holidays still hurt?
Save My SeatI Want You To Go Into The Holidays Without Having To Brace Yourself
Maybe you're hoping your mom will finally understand you.
Your dad will tell you he's proud of you.
Your siblings will include you.
Your family will accept the choices you've made.
Everyone will get along.
Or maybe you just want this year to finally feel the way you've always wanted the holidays to feel.
There is nothing wrong with wanting those things.
But what happens when they don't?
When someone says the wrong thing?
When you feel left out?
When the same family dynamics show up again?
Or when you leave wondering why something that shouldn't have bothered you so much…did?
What if this year could be different—even if your family isn't?
That’s what I’m going to show you in my free webinar.
Because I want you to be able to walk into the holidays without having to brace yourself for what might happen.

THIS WEBINAR ISN'T FOR YOU IF...
❌ You’re looking for a way to make your family change.
❌ You’re expecting a holiday where nothing difficult happens.
❌ You’d rather pretend everything is fine than acknowledge when it isn’t.
❌ You believe the only way the holidays can be different is if other people behave differently.
❌ You’re looking for a quick fix for complicated family relationships.
❌ You don’t want to look at your own feelings or reactions differently.
❌ You’re not open to trying a different way of navigating the holidays.
I Know How Hard This Can Feel—Because I’ve Walked It Too
For the last 15 years, I’ve worked with more than 4,000 people navigating emotional pain, relationships, and the moments in life that can feel really hard.
I’ve also trained more than 100 Compassion Method™ Consultants.
But I don't just teach it. I live it.
I’m 17 years into my own journey, and I know what it’s like to avoid the things that hurt, wish other people would change, and wonder why certain things affect me as much as they do.
I also know how different life can feel when compassion becomes part of how you navigate the hard moments.
And that’s what I want to show you.
Save My SeatThis Is About More Than The Holidays.
The holidays have a way of bringing a lot to the surface.
Expectations.
Disappointment.
Pain.
Longing.
Grief.
Joy.
Connection.
Sometimes all in the same day.
But those feelings don’t disappear when the holidays are over.
They show up in our relationships.
Our marriages.
Our friendships.
Our work.
Our parenting.
And on ordinary Tuesdays when something happens that hurts.
So yes, I want to help you experience the holidays differently.
But what I’m going to show you can go with you long after the holidays are over.
Because you can’t control what other people say or do.
You can’t make every relationship easy.
And you definitely can’t make every holiday go according to plan.
But you can learn a different way to navigate the moments when they don’t.
You don’t have to wait until you’re in the middle of a hard moment to figure out what to do.
Let’s start before the holidays begin. Save your free seat below.
With Compassion, Laura 🤍
