On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
- How exciting is jury duty? Listen as Gabe regales us with his personal trials and tribulations from the courthouse this week.
- You raised a son with severe behavioral problems despite years of therapy and interventions. After your husband's suicide, your son fabricated horrific accusations against you, triggering a criminal investigation and severing your relationship with your beloved grandson. Now that this grandson is nearing adulthood, should you risk reaching out?
- Your 65-year-old neighbor suddenly asked to borrow money twice in two days. When pressed, he revealed he's sending funds to a "longtime friend" — an architect stranded in Jakarta after an accident who just needs "one more payment" for surgery before flying to live with him. This is obviously a scam, but how do you save someone from their own delusion?
- You work on an understaffed hospital team providing essential services while shouldering impossible workloads. After implementing numerous improvements, your requests for additional staff are routinely denied. A new job offers better work-life balance but less pay — and your current employer just invested $15,000 in your professional development. Should you stay or flee?
- Recommendation of the Week: Morena Products Cashew Butter | Morena Products on Instagram
- You've ended the four-year relationship with your high school sweetheart after realizing your boyfriend — who complained about driving to see you and only made time once weekly — was planning to propose even though he could seldom be bothered to respect your boundaries or support your growth. How do you harness this newfound freedom in an empowering way without being overwhelmed?
