On This Week's Feedback Friday:

  • Gabe finds Portuguese portals to be a-door-able and so-called "hot" yoga temperatures too cool for school. 
  • You're a Turkish woman who escaped conservative Muslim traditions, found love with an atheist Canadian, and now face the ultimate family showdown. Can you build bridges between two worlds without burning either one down?
  • After 12 years at your company, you suspect they're quietly orchestrating your exit while you consider taking leave to care for your Alzheimer's-struggling father at home. Is this corporate chess game actually your ticket to the sabbatical you secretly crave? [Thanks to HR professional Joanna Tate for helping us with this one!]
  • Five years ago, someone claimed your husband cheated with a coworker. You've carried this poison pill of doubt ever since, recently confronted the accuser again, but still have no smoking gun. How do you solve a mystery with no evidence?
  • Recommendation of the Week: Join a group fitness class to make friends in new places.
  • Your former yoga student β€” now imprisoned for violent crimes including kidnapping β€” sent you a heartfelt letter from behind bars. As a future therapist, you want to help, but as a human, you're terrified. Do you respond to someone who could be dangerous?
  • Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at [email protected]!
  • Connect with Jordan on Twitter at @JordanHarbinger and Instagram at @jordanharbinger.
  • Connect with Gabriel on Twitter at @GabeMizrahi and Instagram @gabrielmizrahi.

And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here β€” even one sentence helps!

miles to fall down at your Portuguese door, Gabriel Masrahi. These doors, man. These doors are out of control in this country. Europe knows its doors, doors and windows. Yes. You go to Europe, and then you come back to the States, and you look at your door, and you're like, this is my door. This is it? This sad slab of wood with a little hole drilled in it.
