Now let's dive in!

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

Whenever you're hit with a double-whammy of physical illness and depression, remember that psychology is, in fact, biology. Metacognition is the key.
Your pregnant sister-in-law was a wild child growing up and suffers from addiction. Would adopting her baby disrupt your own family's tranquility?
What's the most drama-free way to get your professional contacts on board with the changes you've made since coming out as transgender? [Thanks to Noelle Soncrant, the first visible transgender financial advisor at Northwestern Mutual, for helping us with this one!]
You just discovered your wife has a warrant for her arrest after neglecting to pay $173,000 in taxes your co-owned and recently dissolved business owes to the IRS. Now what? [Thanks to bankruptcy attorney Erin Hoskins for giving us some sound advice here!]
Your sister left her amazing husband for a man she finds more attractive — but who also exhibits controlling and manipulative behavior. He's pressuring her to have a baby despite her lifelong decision against it. How can you help her realize she's making a huge mistake?
How can you mitigate career setbacks while taking time off from work to travel?
