How Can I Forgive Myself For The Past?

Jordana is gearing up for the arrival of her two babies and turning to Dr. Naomi for a crash course in how to accept help from her in-laws. A listener is unpacking years of mom guilt over past mistakes with her son and wondering if there’s a way to make it right now that she’s actually done the work. One Betch is grieving a mother-in-law she’ll never get to meet and questioning whether she’s allowed to be sad about someone who passed before she was in the picture. After rewatching her gender reveal, a woman realizes she was fully out of frame from the moment and is now spiraling that she ruined the memory forever. Meanwhile, a child-free listener is losing it over coworkers who keep joking about all her “free time,” and another sister is officially done after receiving a holiday card that basically bragged about someone else’s fertility luck straight to her face.

Dr. Naomi then offers an intention for a woman whose anxiety shows up as catastrophic thoughts about strangers who don’t even know she exists. Another voicemail comes from a daughter still simmering after her father somehow forgot to mention her (and her brother) in his retirement speech, but made sure to shout out her deeply disliked stepmother.

An Overshare gets delightfully unhinged when a listener admits she wants to burn her whole life down and start over, and the hosts talk her off the ledge. After making a new friend on the tennis courts, a Betch finds herself distracted by said friend’s commitment to a bra-free lifestyle and debates whether it’s socially acceptable to ask for a little more support at their next hang. In a job where she’s constantly the bearer of bad news, one woman looks for an intention to keep her pre-doom anxiety in check. Elsewhere, a wife spirals over her husband telling a female coworker “I’d love you forever,” and a Betch trying to get pregnant tries not to lose it when her sister-in-law casually floats surrogacy before she’s even had time to panic properly.
