After a weekend of tornado watches near Dr. Naomi’s home, she and Jordana examine what rattles them both the most, especially when it comes to the unexpected and uncontrollable. But the storms in Dr. Naomi’s hometown aren’t the only thing brewing! The Overshare this week gets into the dirty topic of jealousy when one woman spills that her BFF’s new, very cool, boyfriend is making her a little envious. In a complete 180, the Betchicist of the week comes from a listener who is trapped hearing weekly rants from their brother-in-law about his marriage, which has them feeling at a loss of how to escape the awkwardness. Speaking of chaos, Dr. Naomi helps set an intention for a Betch that is increasingly overwhelmed by the prospect of robots replacing all human interaction, and the hosts touch on the ever growing importance of making time for connection with others. It wouldn’t be an Oversharing episode without a few Triggering scenarios and so Jordana and Dr. Naomi close out the episode with a little look at work/life boundaries and a friend and soon to be god parent that would rather scuba dive than celebrate their new god-child.

Did I Ruin My Relationship? I Read My Partner’s Journal
Jordana and Dr. Naomi discuss parenting styles when it comes to a child’s extracurricular activities and reflect on their own experiences from growing up. Things get juicy when the Overshare reveals that a listener has invaded her partner’s privacy by reading his journal and now she needs help deciding how to feel and what to do next. Should she tell him? Should she let it be? The hosts discuss and Dr. Naomi brings her couples therapy experience to the situation. The Betchicst this week poses the question of whether or not “outsourcing” help with parenting means you are not maternal enough and explores the many styles in which we can choose to raise our kids (should we choose to have them). Dr. Naomi helps a listener set an intention around her dating anxieties and helps remind us all that self love and direct communication can be the keys to finding inner relationship peace. The Episode closes out with the Triggered segment with a gossiping therapist and a listener who needs some perspective on how to manage her long distance friendship better.
