Can I Demand Family Members Not Post My Kids Online?
The ups and downs of puppy ownership continue for Jordana while Dr. Naomi is working to embrace that which she can not control when it comes to gardening. The Overshare of the week dives into the often divisive issue of whether or not to post images of children on social media when one Betch expresses her concerns with AI porn and online imagery. Continuing down the lines of “immoral acts,” a listener asks about the ethics of one couple’s choice to crowdfund a house downpayment in exchange for a wedding invitation and Dr. Naomi and Jordana have thoughts... Later, both hosts offer up some salient advice after a write-in asks for ways to get around a lack of self confidence when it comes to creative pursuits. The Triggered of the episode comes from a childless listener who was told she and her hubby are “not a family” and a new segment sponsored by American Home Shield, “Planting Roots,” discusses all the reasons house hunting alone is hard but a commendable achievement.

I Got Dumped Via Text, Can I Demand A Phone Call?
The demands of puppy ownership are weighing on Jordana and Dr. Naomi offers her some “advice” on ways to not only work with the new dog but to work on her feelings around it all. But the work this week begins when one listener opens up about a recent breakup she endured via text after a seemingly good few months together. Our Overshare this week comes from a Betch who is anticipating the loss of her job after a very eerie letter was delivered to her at work and Jordana and Dr. Naomi offer up empathy and tactile tools for getting through the anxiety of it all. The Betchicist of the week presents the question if “is it okay to tell someone that you won't refer them for a job?” after a listener is approached by a former employee they know won't be the right fit for a role at their new company. And the episode closes out with some Triggered submissions from two listeners who feel like their family members could have chosen different words for their comments.

Did I Ruin My Relationship? I Read My Partner’s Journal
Jordana and Dr. Naomi discuss parenting styles when it comes to a child’s extracurricular activities and reflect on their own experiences from growing up. Things get juicy when the Overshare reveals that a listener has invaded her partner’s privacy by reading his journal and now she needs help deciding how to feel and what to do next. Should she tell him? Should she let it be? The hosts discuss and Dr. Naomi brings her couples therapy experience to the situation. The Betchicst this week poses the question of whether or not “outsourcing” help with parenting means you are not maternal enough and explores the many styles in which we can choose to raise our kids (should we choose to have them). Dr. Naomi helps a listener set an intention around her dating anxieties and helps remind us all that self love and direct communication can be the keys to finding inner relationship peace. The Episode closes out with the Triggered segment with a gossiping therapist and a listener who needs some perspective on how to manage her long distance friendship better.

This week’s Betchisit continues the friendship theme when one listener asks how to address the elephant…erm… baby in the room that is causing distress in her circle of close pals. But anxieties with our friends aren’t the only thing keeping us up at night so Dr. Naomi helps set an intention for a woman who sends in a voicemail about her guilt around buying things she doesn’t need.
