How to Cope with Holiday Blues

The holidays are often wrapped in joy, celebration, and tradition—but for many, they also bring stress, emotional exhaustion, and quiet sadness. In this special holiday re-air of Choose to Challenge, host LaWanna Bradford leads a timely and compassionate conversation on How to Cope With the Holiday Blues. Joined by a powerful panel of mental wellness advocates—Vismaya Rubin, Teresa Wright Johnson, Wendy Watkins, and Lyn-Dee “Woobie” Eldridge—this episode creates space for honesty, reflection, and healing. Each panelist shares personal moments of experiencing the holiday blues and offers practical tips, tools, and mindset shifts they use to navigate life’s most challenging seasons. Who gets the holiday blues? Anyone—even those who love the season. Packed schedules, family gatherings, financial pressures, unmet expectations, and emotional memories can leave many people feeling overwhelmed and depleted. For those already managing mental health conditions, the impact can be even greater. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), 64% of people with an existing mental health condition report that the holidays make their symptoms worse. This episode isn’t about pretending everything is fine—it’s about learning how to care for yourself, set boundaries, and find light even when the season feels heavy. If the holidays have ever felt complicated for you, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone—and that support, tools, and hope are within reach.
