Summary

Sometimes you just have to cry… on your own podcast. Jordana shares a moment of vulnerability and Dr. Naomi gives her some guidance for channeling that emotion in a positive way. Then a listener writes in to ask if she vents too much about work and family. How do you find a compromise when your decompression style differs from your partner’s? The Betchicist scenario involves talking sh*t about your MIL to your own mother. Why does it feel so good to gossip sometimes, and what should we do when it crosses a line? This week’s intentions are all about trying to establish stronger connections and resolving a fear of abandonment. Finally, they rate some Triggered submissions about a family deception, and stolen decorating tips. Check out our latest promo codes here: https://betches.com/promo Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello and welcome back to oversharing. I'm Jordana Abraham and I'm Dr. Naomi Bernstein. Hello. Hello. Happy Monday morning. I feel like you have something to tell me.

0:25.4

I mean like a little I don't want to say a little bit of a mood. I mean like a like a big mood. I mean, let's get it. I'm feeling like extremely irritable this morning. Okay. What happened? I don't I don't think really nothing like it's like it's like you know one of those things where I'm not even sure anything actually happened because I feel like under a normal circumstance. None of these things would bother me that much but for some reason every little thing is like making me very like angry

0:55.4

this morning and probably it's I mean I feel I came back I went to London with alien and Sammy that just co-bounders this week which was really fun but my sleep was like very disrupted and I came down with like kind of a cold type thing like a nasally congested thing so that was also impacting my sleep but then I came back to yesterday and I had like a nine hour sleep last night but I woke up this morning and I was just like

1:25.0

on a little bit of a warpath like like I went to go get like my coffee mug and it like wasn't where I put it it was because Mike had like unloaded it just moved in like a month ago and I guess he didn't know where I was put it so he put them back somewhere else and he was still sleeping and I was just like getting like I was like seething at something is not a big deal and then it was just like one little thing after the next and just like

1:51.4

but I knew that it was not any of those things but ever but I just I feel like there's like I'm like one little hiccup my internet was like not really working that well I'm one little hiccup away from like being a very bad version of myself

2:06.4

I feel it coming yeah brewing all right so maybe we could use this time a few minutes to just like get you back on track it's funny because I always do like people like to say I'm having a bad day

2:19.8

and a day is a pretty long time like you don't have to resign the whole day you could just kind of be like I'm having a bad

2:27.8

mini or a bad hour even and then kind of try to make the next hour better but sometimes when you get in your head like I'm having a bad day the only solution is

2:37.8

wait for the day to be over go to sleep and start over but hopefully we can get you to start over sooner than the rest of the day seeing us it's only the morning

2:45.8

I also do just 10 am exactly not even here I think there's probably something maybe even like a dream that you had or like sometimes there's

2:57.8

something even if it happened two days ago and you weren't really able to process it maybe because you were traveling or you were with friends I mean we don't have to necessarily dig into it right now but sometimes I feel like there's these like

3:10.8

brewing things that are bigger picture issues that you don't want to address and then the little things end up being the thing that's easier to address so I don't know if anything comes to mind but

3:23.8

I think it could definitely be that well on my mind I was like is it just like the sleep illness just like not functioning like in my normal routine thing or is it this like some unprocessed

3:35.8

irritations that I've sort of swept under the rug because I'm traveling and because it's like not an optimal time I don't know how do you unpack that if I had to guess I

3:44.8

say it's probably both I think it's like the what's coming up what's like there's a negative energy that's like filling you up to the chin up up and it's going

3:53.8

to you feel like it's about to come out and I think most of the time when that happens it's the perfect storm of

4:00.8

some bigger picture

4:03.8

interpersonal perhaps you know existential like big picture issue

4:10.8

that you didn't want to address then kind of you know the lack of sleep on top of it then having to you know

4:17.8

wake up first thing in the morning things are still not in their place maybe there's a little I always hate to say this and I know

4:24.8
