Summary

Jordana and Dr. Naomi are back to regularly scheduled recordings after Jordana welcomed her baby girls and the two hosts are already plotting their next IRL hangout with the entire gang. An overstimulated mom overshares her guilt after forgetting a friend's birthday and fears her apology didn’t smooth things over as she had hoped. An expecting Betch is blindsided when her bestie stakes claim to a wildly common baby name, forcing her to choose between her friendship or her child’s namesake. A single mom dealing with an ex-husband who seems to exist purely to test her blood pressure asks for an intention she can repeat when he inevitably pushes every button she has. A woman who runs a 5K for pediatric cancer is side-eyeing a close friend who has ghosted her donation requests for multiple years. Finally, a childfree Betch is triggered that her dream wedding is being derailed by other people’s children and wonders if she’ll ever get over it. Learn more about your ad choices.
