Is My Partner A Bad Gift Giver?
Show notes
Dr. Naomi admits that “self-care” is basically just doing your chores but romanticizing them, and she and Jordana swap what mundane tasks they find “healing.” After enduring a difficult pregnancy and trauma bonding with another new mom, a mom is feeling the friendship has run its course but doesn’t know how to gracefully exit the relationship. With Mother’s Day looming, one Betch is spiraling because her husband—historically allergic to good gift ideas—swears he has a “surprise,” which honestly feels more like a threat. Jordana also sets an intention for a listener deep in the TTC anxiety spiral, trying to reclaim some chill when her brain refuses to log off. Plus, one woman’s already-shaky nerves are sent into overdrive after a chaotic dog encounter—not because of the bite, but because everyone suddenly became a judgmental dog behavior expert. Lastly, a listener who got a wildly condescending work email is left wondering of their rage is justified, or if they need to take several deep breaths and draft a “per my last email” response… again.
