Home for the holidays

Briana Garcia hosts Home for the holidays, a practical and timely podcast born from a period when gathering indoors carried new risks and required fresh thinking.

The tone is grounded and compassionate, recognizing that the holidays are emotionally charged. By blending factual guidance with an understanding of social dynamics, this podcast serves as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to balance care with celebration, making it a unique entry in the Education and How To space.
