Today we’re breaking down one of the most powerful tools for reducing resentment, confusion, and emotional overload during the holidays: the Holiday Huddle.

A Holiday Huddle is a simple 10-minute weekly check-in that helps couples stay aligned during December — before the stress, assumptions, and misunderstandings hit.
Because most holiday conflicts aren’t about what happened.
They’re about not talking ahead of time.

In this episode, we walk you through the exact Holiday Huddle process we teach inside the Holiday Mental Load Breakthrough, including:
• Step-by-step questions for a weekly check-in
• How to avoid the “default parent” dynamic
• Why assumptions create 80% of holiday tension
• How to set realistic expectations for your bandwidth
• How to divide responsibilities using Lead + Support roles
• How to identify what needs to come off your plate this week
• How to plan for emotional load, not just logistics

This is the tool that keeps couples grounded, connected, and prepared — so you’re not running on last-minute panic or silent resentment.
