Ali is joined by her mom (aka Mama J) from their girls trip to Costa Rica for a real, funny, and super practical convo about holiday logistics when you’re dating someone. They start with trip updates (a crab in the hallway, a fully gluten-free resort, and the upcoming “48-hour travel day &#43; cats” marathon), then dive into what listeners said in IG polls about where they’re spending the holidays, when people talk about plans, and what stresses everyone out most.Ali and Mama J unpack how holiday decisions actually get made, why spending holidays apart isn’t automatically a red flag, and how to communicate with your partner and your family without resentment. They talk about merging traditions, the difference between “the actual day” vs “the feeling,” and why being in your partner’s family space can feel like performing. Plus: a legendary Akavit story, Norwegian Christmas customs, and the surprisingly emotional power of something as small as a stocking with your name on it.P.S. The two Costa Rica hotels are Occidental Papagayo and Hotel Hacienda GuachipelinTimestamps: Topic talk begins at around minute 13.If you&#39;d like to hear our personal updates before everyone else as well as other exclusive content, join The Search Party on Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/findingmrheight" rel="nofollow">www.patreon.com/findingmrheight</a> .
