Am I Inconsiderate For Taking Care Of Myself Before Others?
Jordana recently celebrated her birthday while Dr. Naomi was off visiting a long distance friend and the two share about their very different experiences. The hosts also side-bar about the recently viral Netflix Documentary Unknown Number and if you haven’t seen it yet go watch it first because they spill all the secrets. A new mother and caring friend writes in asking if it's okay to not be there for someone when you yourself are holding on by a thread. Dr. Naomi gets real about a concerned wife and daughter who thinks her husband's mismanaging a vacation with her father and is looking for a Betchecist on the situation. After giving birth, one listener is at odds with her new body shape and seeks an intention for how to embrace this era of her life. A Betch is left speechless and a bit triggered after her friend ghosted her for months and blew off a trip, only to emerge from the woodwork with a new group of friends. Another listener is sour that her partner wasn’t applauding her recent weight loss only to discover he “hadn’t even noticed” and she is not sure how to feel about it.
