Oversharing

This week Jordana and Dr. Naomi are asking an important question: when everyone online claims to know the “right” way to do things, how do you learn to trust yourself? They unpack how social media thrives on activating our anxieties and why the most confident advice isn’t always the best advice. Then, an Oversharer gets an unexpected pre-wedding reality check when her parents remind her that it’s never too late to back out, but was there something they weren’t telling her? A Betchisist catches her friend in an elaborate lie involving a family emergency, a secret beach trip, and an AI-generated photo excuse that absolutely does not hold up under questioning. Dr. Naomi offers an intention for anyone stuck in the uncomfortable in-between after leaving something that wasn’t working but before finding what comes next. In Triggered, a mother-in-law learns that “all good” might not be the best response when you’ve completely ignored the baby’s nap schedule. And why an unsolicited financial advisor introduction may be one of the rare occasions when ghosting is fully encouraged.

Dr. Naomi returns from vacation with a story that proves parenting never really takes a day off. After an unexpected family emergency leaves their kids suddenly without adult supervision, Jordana and Dr. Naomi unpack what it means to rely on your village. Then they help an Oversharer navigate whether she should skip a friend's wedding, or keep living her life, when it falls in the middle of IVF treatment. They also weigh in on a Betchisist’s marriage strained by secrecy around marijuana use and ask whether the real issue is the habit or what's underneath it. The intention this week goes to a listener who wants to stop cringing at old photos of herself and embrace every version of the body that carried her through life. Plus, in Triggered, they debate whether one rogue couples therapist deserves to lose their license and whether comparing someone's baby to an alien from Men in Black is ever, under any circumstances, acceptable.

If you've ever wondered whether your emotions are trying to tell you something or just trying to start a fight, then listen up. This week, Jordana and Dr. Naomi dive into the surprising ways hormones can shape our relationships, from motherhood and perimenopause to the emotional rollercoaster of PMS. They help an Oversharer navigate the complicated mix of grief and relief after a miscarriage and unpack whether the voices behind fear should be used as guidance. Then they tend to a Betchesist who's struggling to understand why her long-term boyfriend won't share his location and ask themselves: Have we turned ourselves into Big Brother? This week's Triggered sparks a debate over whether public speakerphone conversations are ever acceptable and whether a surprise three-week visit from the in-laws is thoughtful or completely boundary-crossing.
