Summary

Dr. Naomi opens the podcast with an admission that she got a little sucked into social media recently after her daughter’s school had a student-led event that sparked some debate in the local community. Feeling abandoned, a new mom needs help crafting a text to an old bestie because she isn’t making the same effort as her other pals. Seeking a Betchicist, a future bride is left distressed after trying to plan her bachelorette via text and Jordana brings her group planning skills to the table. A social media addicted listener is in need of an Intention because she knows her desire for Instagram likes is bordering on unhealthy. One listener is left triggered after an employee she recently hired suddenly quit on her while another Betch feels the same way about her brother taking all the family names for his kids. www.youtube.com/@OversharingPod Learn more about your ad choices.
