Suitcase Divas

Send us a text Holiday cheer meets hard choices, and we’re not pulling any punches. We wade into five real “Am I the A**hole?” dilemmas that hit every pressure point of the season: a mom skipping a ski trip while 22 weeks pregnant with triplets, divorced parents clashing over “two Santas,” a last‑minute Thanksgiving disinvite after a stepfamily slight, a young family refusing the Christmas Day tour to protect nap schedules and sanity, and a guest with a severe nut allergy walking out when the table wasn’t safe. We talk through what’s tradition and what’s pressure, why “family first” only works when health and safety come first, and how to create new rituals without declaring war on the old ones. You’ll hear where we draw lines on high‑risk pregnancy travel, why Santa shouldn’t become a co‑parenting scoreboard, how language can make or break belonging for stepkids, and what real accommodation looks like for life‑threatening allergies. We also untangle the classic group trip headache—money fairness, room swaps, and the one relative who expects everyone else to foot the bill—and share practical ways to set expectations before resentment takes the wheel. If your holidays feel like a juggling act of logistics, emotions, and competing needs, this conversation is a reality check and a relief. Come for the drama, stay for the playbook: scripts for saying no without guilt, simple safety rules for shared meals, and ideas for making magic at home when travel just isn’t it.
