Navigating the Holidays with Tricky People - Episode 3 Artwork

Let's Sit With This

If you've ever wished someone would just talk about the hard stuff in a way that actually makes sense — this is that place.

Let's Sit With This is hosted by Kristen Callaway, LMFT, a licensed therapist in Edmond, OK. This podcast is for anyone who is getting through hard moments, healing old hurt, or growing into someone they're proud of.

Here we talk about the things that are hard to say out loud — anxiety, grief, trauma, relationships, self-worth, and the patterns that keep us stuck. It feels more like chatting around a campfire than sitting in a therapist's office. You'll leave with perspective, practical tools, and the reminder that you are not as alone in this as you might feel.

Pull up a chair, get comfy, and let's sit with this together.

You’ve named the tricky relationships. You’ve thought through your boundaries. But what happens when setting those boundaries doesn’t go the way you hoped? In this final episode of Navigating the Holidays with Tricky People, Kristen walks you through how to prepare for pushback—emotionally, mentally, and practically. She helps you explore the gap between the boundaries you want to set and the ones you’re actually ready for, and reminds you that quiet internal boundaries are still real boundaries. You’ll learn five ways to ground yourself ahead of time, how to spot manipulative guilt trips, and why even tiny steps forward still count.
This is your prep talk before you head into hard rooms—so you don’t go in unanchored.
