Welcome to “Deck the Halls, Not Your Relatives” – Episode #45 of Co-creating Peace – a podcast series about conscious communication and conflict transformation. 

Holidays are usually thought of as a time of gathering with Family and loved ones, and creating joyful memories. For some families, there is a different experience. Some people find themselves embroiled in family conflict during the holidays, and wishing they could deck one relative or another. Rachel Yarrington joins me to talk about why that is and what we can do about it.
