Is My Friend A Compulsive Liar?

August 18, 2026 · 1 h 6 min

Show notes

This week Jordana and Dr. Naomi are asking an important question: when everyone online claims to know the “right” way to do things, how do you learn to trust yourself? They unpack how social media thrives on activating our anxieties and why the most confident advice isn’t always the best advice. Then, an Oversharer gets an unexpected pre-wedding reality check when her parents remind her that it’s never too late to back out, but was there something they weren’t telling her? A Betchisist catches her friend in an elaborate lie involving a family emergency, a secret beach trip, and an AI-generated photo excuse that absolutely does not hold up under questioning. Dr. Naomi offers an intention for anyone stuck in the uncomfortable in-between after leaving something that wasn’t working but before finding what comes next. In Triggered, a mother-in-law learns that “all good” might not be the best response when you’ve completely ignored the baby’s nap schedule. And why an unsolicited financial advisor introduction may be one of the rare occasions when ghosting is fully encouraged.
