On this episode of “Tommy Talk,” Tommy opens up about navigating grief during the holiday season. Many of us feel pressure to “get through” the holidays or pretend we’re doing fine.

Here are some practices that have helped me after the loss of my dear friend and mentor recently. For anyone going through their own grieving process this holiday season, this episode is for you.
