83. Blue Christmas

Marisol and Adam discuss the complexities of Christmas in the time of Corona.

The episode starts off with Adam and Marisol sharing favorite holiday traditions of quite, Christmas lights, church services, and music. Moving into current day, Marisol and Adam get vulnerable about their experience of anxiety, fear, expectations, joy, sadness, and anger surrounding Covid-19 at Christmas. They discuss the relenting variants that cause a whiplash of emotions in some and exhaustion and burn out in others and their perspective on how the pressure of the holiday can add to this.

Finding stillness, light, and peace Marisol and Adam hope for all of their listeners experiencing a blue Christmas, a little bit of magic this season. We hope this episode resonates with you.

Thanks for listening in, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year!

About the Podcast

Reading Aloud
Welcome to the Reading Aloud Podcast, a place where the creative, emotional and hilarious aspects of relationship communication are explored in real-time, by a real Married couple. Marisol and Adam are a married couple living in Asheville, North Carolina. Outside of the Podcast, Marisol is an entrepreneur, who owns SolReflection, a therapeutic image consulting firm (she's a style therapist) and Adam works for Dogwood Alliance, a environmental non-profit organization. After dating, marriage, and lots of travel, the couple went on a long fertility journey. That journey lead them to IVF, a tremulous pregnancy, post partum depression and an amazing life altering miracle kid, Neo (all while recording the ups & downs). These days Marisol and Adam are raising a toddler, navigating the surrogate process to add to their family, and starting the egg retrieval/IVF process again after a miscarriage. Tune in as the couple provides you insight into how they communicate, navigate and thrive through married life, parenting, being an adult, and living in the world today.
