Summary

What’s more relatable than having to deal with difficult parents? Jordana and Naomi start the week by revisiting their deepest parental fears from childhood. Then a listener writes in to ask how to deal with a father who refuses to consider the feelings of others, and a mother who often flies off the handle. How do you avoid turning into your own parents, and what’s the best approach to dealing with a difficult parent? Another emailer writes in with a Betchicist question about feeling jealous of your own sister’s happy relationship. Is it okay to feel envious of someone close to you even though you know you should be happy for them? Then a listener calls into the Oversharing hotline with some intention-setting about silencing negative self-talk and finding contentment in life. Finally, they dive into some Triggered submissions about getting shamed for a workplace affair, and another about delaying your own honeymoon.
