As the year wraps up, Joel and Luke dive into one of the most complex topics of all — family during the holidays.

From the financial pressure of trying to make Christmas magical, to navigating old family dynamics that resurface the moment you walk through the door, this episode explores how to protect your mental health, set boundaries, and actually find some joy in the chaos.

Luke shares insight into chosen family, loneliness at Christmas, and how the expectations we carry can make or break the season. There’s laughter, honesty, and a few home truths to close out Season One with heart.

 Life’s Bumps and Bruises — real conversations about being human.
