It’s the holiday season, so get ready for family, friends, and great food. But are you also ready to talk politics? As we get together over the holiday, many of these conversations are unavoidable… as is the stress and anxiety they can cause. You may have even seen phrases like “political stress syndrome” being thrown around. Well, the struggle is real. In this episode of Y’all-itics, the Jasons turn to a mental health expert for tips on how to keep your holiday stress from spiraling out of control. She tells the Jasons she’s seeing more and more clients with political stress and the anxiety is impacting their day-to-day lives. And if you’re looking to add some emotional armor, she says it all starts with boundaries.

PS: keep this episode of Y’all-itics close during the holiday in case you need another listen to make it through that holiday meal!
