Listen "When Merry Feels Messy: Protect Your Peace, Set Boundaries & Stay Holy | RRWS Holiday Series EP 2"
Episode Synopsis
If the family group chat is already testing your salvation before the gift exchange has even been figured out…
you are right where you need to be.
Because some of us aren’t feeling all merry and bright this year.
It’s giving messy, bothered, and boundaries required.
In this holiday heart-to-heart, Natasha Elaine breaks down what it really means to stay holy and healed when your loved ones test your peace.
She’s joined by therapist Psalm McDaniels, MSS, LCSW, who helps unpack why family triggers hit harder during the holidays — and how to walk into gatherings grounded in grace.
💬 You’ll learn:
• How to say “no” without guilt or shame
• Why peace isn’t performed — it’s planted
• What emotional triggers reveal about growth
• How to set boundaries that still honor God
• The difference between performing calm and protecting it
📖 Scriptures to meditate on:
Romans 12:18 – Live at peace with everyone.
John 14:27 – My peace I give you.
Galatians 5:22 – The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace…
Isaiah 26:3 – He keeps us in perfect peace.
✨ Word of the Week: Peace
Not pressure. Not perfection. Just peace — the kind that’s already yours in Him.
