367: Dr. John Delony on How to Thrive During the Holiday Season and Keep Your Peace During Awkward Family Dinners

Podcast · November 22, 2023

This week, the holiday season begins, and along with that often comes wonderful holiday gatherings. But in many cases, those family gatherings might be awkward. If you’re headed into this week thinking, “I hate how politically charged family gatherings become. How do I dodge these situations?” or  “I love my family, but they drive me nuts at holiday dinners,” this is the conversation for you. But we can’t ignore the reality that for some of you, you’re hiding tears, thinking, “I am alone during the holidays, and really get depressed. I’d give anything to have a family dinner, even if it’s crazy.” Joining us this week is my good friend, Dr. John Delony. We’re going to have some fun, but we’re also going to equip you to step into this holiday season with confidence and empathy.

Healing What You Can’t Erase – My NEW BOOK!

I’m thrilled to tell you about my new book, Healing What You Can’t Erase: Transform Your Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual Health from the Inside Out, available everywhere books are sold on March 19, 2024.

In Healing What You Can’t Erase, I leverage my personal story of adversity, loss, and healing to teach you how to forge your roadmap to wholeness from the inside out. This path doesn’t rely on willpower, self-help, or self-healing, but rather the daily transformative power of the Holy Spirit engaged with principles of neuroscience, psychology, and Scripture. While the pain-filled memories from our past can’t be erased, we can experience psychological, mental, emotional, and spiritual healing that lasts.

Pre-orders will begin in January, but my publisher has graciously made a sneak peek of the book available to you immediately. Go to HealingWhatYouCantErase.com right now to sign up and receive a FREE sneak peek of the book before it hits stores in March.
