We’ve all got that family member we’re already bracing ourselves for this holiday season. For some people, the holidays feel less like a celebration and more like a cold plunge — get in, get out, and try not to scream. But you don’t have to match anyone else’s energy this year. In this episode, Ryan shows you how to prepare for people’s patterns, protect your peace, and lead the moment you’re in. You’ll learn how intentional questions can shift the tone at any table, how to avoid becoming someone you don’t like, and how to set a new standard for the holidays long before the drama starts. This isn’t about surviving the season — it’s about shaping it.
