Can y’all do an episode that is themed: nobody saw that coming, Just have stories with the most unexpected updates, like shocking updates. Love the podcast keep the wonderful guests and episodes coming.

IM SORRY WHAT. The nurse refused to get the on call Dr. and wanted to know. Her response was so rude and uncalled for! She strayed from being professional and decided to state her take that OP didn’t ask for. I agree, plenty of people in the medical industry go unchecked.

of course the nursing student defended the mean nurse. it seems like at least half of nurses are mean girls

Story 1: It’s not violating a medical professional’s consent to talk about things like that, it’s literally their job. If she came up to her on the street and started talking about her piercing that would be different. I really hope OP’s friend saw the thread and reflects on it because she has a problematic viewpoint for a future nurse.

For the first AITA story about the piercing, the nurse asked and she answered. The nurse’s response was very unprofessional. If she can’t keep her thoughts to herself, the nurse should not answer at all I missed Alejandra on the show. I really like hearing her mature and collected thoughts! 😊

For the boob job story that’s very typical “I’m 34 and dating a 20y/o” behavior

I went to the gynecologist to get an IUD. IUDs are extremely painful as it is but my doctor ended up putting mine in wrong which caused me to black out and vomit. I didn’t even ask for medicine but the doctor rolled her eyes at me, said that I was faking because “the pain wasn’t that bad” and told the nurse “oh great another college student wanting narcotics.” I have been afraid to ask for any kind of medicine from a doctor in fear they will think I just want drugs. I have never abused drugs in my life but she is not the only doctor to treat me like an addict. On that note, they shouldn’t even treat people with substance abuse issues badly to begin with. But yeah, it was a really terrible experiencing and when I went back to her a couple weeks later after severe pain, she refused to take my IUD out and prescribed me the birth control ring to go along with it. She also said that I had endometriosis and wanted induce early menopause on me when I was just 18. She gave me a bunch of pamphlets and I went home crying. My IUD ended up falling out a few days later and I was perfectly fine afterward. I never ever went back to her.

People were probably looking at the guy crying over his dog because they were worried about him! And the staff at the clinic are used to things like that. How could she have so little sympathy? Pets are so special, I feel so terrible for him.

That first OP's friend should absolutely not be a nurse if they are triggered by someone asking a valid question about their body to a NURSE. Literally your job to look at bodies unobjectively

My take on the baby wearing white to the wedding - the mom totally wants extra attention for the baby & her on the wedding day. She's 3 AND the only grandchild? The baby's mom might be too passive to wear white to someone's wedding, but she could totally achieve some 2nd hand attention from having the only grandchild/baby at the wedding. Especially if she makes her a "tiny bride".👀☕

For the one with the wedding, it’s not about the baby wearing white it’s the fact the mom feels so entitled to do whatever at a wedding that isn’t hers.

Thank u for helping that Hispanic man. I almost started crying. You don’t understand how immigrants don’t have a voice and are super confused all the time. (Bc of stuff like this) I would have 10000000 % reported that doctor

Asking TMI sex questions is literally in the job description for medical workers, no matter the field, but especially in the OB/GYN field. She was NOT breaking rules of consent AT ALL. It was so out of line for the friend to be saying she was crossing the line. The OB/GYN field is all about sexual health. That made me MAD.

That story about the dog with cancer is sooo relatable. My father once told me it wasn't appropriate for me (at the time 12yo boy) to cry in public. Recently when my cat died (cancer) I couldn't be there for him, it happened really quickly and I was at school 75 minutes away and I wasn't in a position to leave until later in the day. I had to hold tears back hours because I didn't want to make a scene. I had lost a family member that had been in my family since I was 4 and yet I was scared to mourn in public. We need to normalize crying men.

I’m doing my makeup while watching and I literally paused and stopped my makeup to write this. I cannot believe the AUDACITY of that girlfriend telling her boyfriend she is embarrassed of him for crying after finding out his dog has cancer. She must be a heartless person because what the fuck.

With the uncle story, the parents are not only doing a disservice to their child but also to the uncle himself. They are enabling him and eventually he will feel emboldened to act physically. They are leading him straight to a prison cell instead of helping him learn how to cope with his impulses.

Okay, the boob job story- throw the whole guy away. Being a woman who actually likes her body and now he’s withholding sexual intimacy from her because of a part of her that she’s confident about? He’s not a man, he’s a child. My heart is with her because she’s always going to have it in the back of her head that someone she liked, didn’t like them.

Wedding story is a total teachable moment for a kid - "we're going to pick a different dress for you, because it's SUCH a special day for the bride, and she gets to be the only person at the whole wedding wearing white. So we get to give her a special gift and help her day be amazing by wearing different colors." You can't manufacture those chances for your child to learn, so it pays to embrace them when they come along. Love love love the show!

I just wanted to comment about the story about the deleted text about the baby. Interestingly enough, I got pregnant by a man 7 years ago who didn’t want anything to do with me or the baby and blocked ME after I told him about it. Fast forward to now, I’m married to my husband who wants to adopt my son. The court made me hire a private investigator to find this man so I could have his rights terminated before the adoption could take place, despite me having proof of the texts that said he was blocking me and no contact whatsoever for over 7 years. There’s virtually no chance this woman would be able to keep him away from their kid, especially when he wants to be there and is willing to pay the child support.

The toxicity in l&d nursing needs to go. Here is a story. I was 20 when I had my kid. At 23 weeks, I was having extreme cramping. I was telling the nurse and she ask if I was drinking enough water. Or your probably having a uti. Nope. Those were real contractions and I dilated 0.75. My doctor heard her and asked if she was the doctor. To which she replied no. So my doctor say don't diagnose my patients then.

My dad's best friend started flirted with me at 12 and 20 years later still does. My dad doesn't care. It's so uncomfortable. Once he called me sexy at 14 when he was 55. I feel OP's pain on that one.

The wedding dress story happened at my wedding sort of and im still annoyed by it. A woman in my husbands family brought her 3yr daughter in white dress and veil and then proceeded to parade the kid all over and interrupt the wedding photographer to take photos of her daughter with me and my husband and every person and item in the wedding. It was so narcissistic. I then found out she does this at other ppl’s weddings too. Once she interrupted a bride’s walk down the isle to take a pic of the bride with her daughter

I was cuddling with my bf and listening. He grabbed my body and told me “I love your body, I’d never ask you to change it” it made me cry. I’ve had weight loss/gain so I have some saggy skin on my thighs and belly. I’ve considered getting surgery but dread the idea of the pain and money of it. I said “you don’t think I should get my fat removed?” He said “of course not. Didn’t I lay my face there yesterday? I love you for you. Don’t pay money to change yourself when you don’t need too” 🥺💕 I can’t believe assholes like the guy in that story exist. But I feel so lucky to have my bf. I’m seeing myself through his eyes, and it’s making me love myself. I know that’s cheese. It’s been an uphill battle my entire life with my body

I have had the same piercing for 10 years now and have had 3 kids and was never treated like this. I forgot to take it out when I went into labor with my first and the nurse just reminded me that we should probably remove it but it was up to me. There is nothing that fazes OB nurses in my experience, this nurse was out of line. For anyone that wants the advice, TAKE IT OUT FOR BIRTH! I tore both directions with my oldest and my cliterous was involved 🥴 it was easy enough to put the barbell back in after a week with it out. I personally wouldn’t use a retainer in case of tearing or someone hitting it or accidentally yanking it out. Childbirth can get pretty hectic and no one is watching for jewelry.

I wouldn’t be mad at a baby for wearing white Id be mad at the parents for putting the baby in white lol

Alejandra said something so important about “never planting the seed that someone needs to get work done”

As a nurse I'd say all legitimate medical questions should be comfortable to talk about. The only time I feel like I've had my consent violated was by co-workers, friends or family. No! I don't want to hear about you ball problems. You are not my patient and I don't want to talk about that.

The breast augmentation one struck a nerve for me. My college boyfriend chose the moment that I got home from having my wisdom teeth removed to lay there and ask me if I would consider getting a boob job. I was a mess, I had a rough surgery because they were impacted. I bawled my eyes out and he left me there recovering from surgery to go play beer pong. I was done. I dumped him and my roommate helped me recover from surgery. Come to find out, he swiped a couple of my pain pills while he was using my bathroom. Bullet 🚄 dodged 🔫 Edit: I did end up getting it done, 5 yrs later. But his ass never got to enjoy them. 😂🤓

from the uk and i've just recently left medicine because of things i saw firsthand that you guys discussed in the first story. i was reprimanded for taking time with patients, actually speaking with care, advocating for patients and trying to give them good care. i couldn't stand it, so i left. it's so unbelievably frustrating, because that takes a toll on the mental health of people trying to help people (which is why i decided to take a break initially) - it's awful. we aren't here to judge, we're here to HELP. but no one actually wants to, and when you do you're bullied.

The dog with cancer one pissed me off . When my girl died I was Howling at the vet, they had to take me out the back door .

Hypothetically, if you deleted a message 5 years ago from an ex, how would you know immediately that what it said was about his child... If she hadn't read it she probably wouldn't even remember doing it, let alone bring it up the second he finds out. That's my take.

As a mom with insomnia, this couldn’t have uploaded at a better time. Random bath at 3:00am and some ✨tea✨

The dog guy one made me so angry, my dog passed away last year and i couldn't say goodbye and i found out a few days later, i broke down at work, ugly crying; LOUDLY ugly crying, and no one dared to show anything but empathy, one of my coworkers teared up with me while holding my hand; my boss (who is an awful person) told me to go home to cry it out, gave me money for a taxi and next day asked me if i felt like going, even awful people have soft spots for pets, you have to be an special kind of horrible to react like that to your super vulnerable boyfriend. This is a posible traumatic event, how can you react like this. If someone tells you your friend is dying, of fucking course you're going to breakdown

My Golden Rule: never go down on a man before he has done anything for me. Haven't had penetrative sex or him go down on me yet? hahaha never. pull your weight my dude.

Hey for the last story, the guy did a final update in May; "It's quite a long story so the more condensed version is that I've met my daughter, my ex and I handled the custody and support agreement ourselves (still signed off by the court), we're both committed to making this co-parenting thing work and it's been going well so far. My wife and I are back at home and both excited about her nearing due date. We've decided to move on. The longer version: The last update ended with my ex threatening to fight me in court. Well, the lawyer I'd arranged suggested we give mediation a try and set that up with her lawyers and this mediator. Overall the mediation went quite shit and seemed to be more detrimental to us ever cooperating. We only had two actual sessions and both were just filled with unnecessary fighting and no resolution. Funny enough it was the chaos at the mediation that kind of proved to both of us we weren't interested in fighting each other indefinitely and she reached out late in the evening after the 2nd mediation asking to meet up the next day. In that meeting, we talked things out and listened to one another. Sorted through some baggage from our relationship as well as spoke about what exactly had been going on the past 5 years. Hours long conversation but it was totally worth it. We agreed that we'd make it work and put our daughter in the forefront. A meeting was arranged for me to drive over and see my daughter face to face and I did. At the time I wasn't introduced properly to her as her father and she obviously was cagey around this random dude around but it was still great seeing her that first time. She was/is seeing someone to help with my transition into her life and i've since been properly introduce to her and she's started calling me papa so things are going stunningly smooth and she's coping really well with it all. Plus my ex has floated around the idea that if she could find a job/better job where I am she'd consider moving so distance isn't too big of a problem though that's still a big if. For now, I'll just keep driving up to her until we're acquainted enough to allow her to make the trip to me. The last update on my wife left things at my sister posting about everything and my family fighting with my wife. My sister has removed the post and apologized to my wife although not sincere but still an apology. Still ongoing but attempts of reconciling my family and wife are going more or less well. My wife momentarily moved to stay with her parent to get away from everything for about a month but has since moved back to the house with me as we're soon expecting the birth of our child in the up and coming weeks. All extremely excited over that and we've worked through our issues. I'm sure most of you will be disappointed by this but I do 100% believe my wife and trust that she isn't some conniving person. She's still the woman I love and we're all to blame for the circumstance that led to this whole situation. All we can do is focus on the future. Big thanks to everyone who's offered their support and wishes as well as advice. I truly do appreciate all of it. And that's it. Signed off- a happy dad of (almost) 2"

My boyfriend and I love listening to THT together and then pausing and having our takes on the story. I feel like I have learned so much about him from these podcats. It also helps with our intimacy because we don't do "the deed" lol

As one of the multiple girls in my family who has been sexually groomed, molested, and raped by the “weird/ funny uncle” in the family, the family always makes excuses for these creeps. I wasn’t the first or the last and it has been 10 years since he actually assaulted me, let alone the grooming, and I have told many people in my family exactly what he did to me, including cyber bullying and blackmail, and they don’t care because “he is family”… GIRL GO NO CONTACT. It was the best thing for my mental health.

The mom wanted everyone to assume the 3 year old was the flower girl, and assumed the bride and groom wouldn't cause a scene over it .and by asking he ruined her "plan"

I literally asked a nurse about my BELLYBUTTON PIERCING when I was pregnant and whether or not to use a retainer and she responded the SAME WAY. It made me feel terrible about myself 😔

The dog one got me. I worked in a vet clinic and we often had people breakdown during euthanasias. We had a couple come in to have their elderly dog put to sleep. They both cried. People should not police others’ displays of grief and despair. I’ve had a dog put to sleep and I’m pretty sure the whole vet clinic heard me bawling my eyes out. It felt like someone ripping my heart out.

For the baby in a white dress story It's not about being upset that the baby is wearing white to your wedding. The baby(like you all pointed out) would be happy in anything. It's the mom that made her wear white. That's why it's ick . It's not being mad that the baby is wearing wearing a white dress, it's being mad that the mom intentionally put her in a white dress.

My dog of 10 years died last month. I cried so hard and ao loud I thought my lugs were going to give out before I calmed down. I'm sure the whole clinic heard me. But my family, and the vets were nothing but supportive. My girl meant everything to me. I had a rough up bringing and she was all I had sometimes. My whole face was bright pink and I was physically weak walking out of there holding the box that my baby was in. Everyone was looking and honestly I'm sure they felt nothing but sympathy.

My babysitter who I’m still close with to this day asked me to be her flower girl! I was 19 and so excited hahaha everyone loved it!

The story with the wife deleting the message from the ex: my God, what an awful story. This is an impossibly difficult situation. OP will never not resent his wife every single day for the rest of his life. She took a choice away from him, a life altering choice. BIG YIKES. The best thing she can do is give him space to heal. It's up to him if he decides to forgive her and she needs to understand that.

So for the 1st story, as a nurse myself, that’s is an absolutely unprofessional and disgusting response from the nurse and it should be reported. As for the friend, there is a reason she is ‘studying to be a nurse’ and not an actual nurse. You learn the most once you have your license and are out of the floor yourself and anyone who is an actual professional in the friend can tell you that was completely inappropriate. As for the wedding dress story, I will be wearing a black dress but only my closest friends know that and our wedding invite will explicitly say no white dresses despite that. I’m fine with simple black dresses for guests if they want, since they won’t know what I’m wearing, but EVERYONE knows that the automatic rule is don’t wear white to the wedding. The OP handled it so well, however the wife is completely in the wrong. Yes it a child so I would not be threatened, however the bride was appropriately asked prior and said no. They reason it’s not ok is because the child at 3 doesn’t care about what she is wearing and the mother KNOWS that rule of no white dresses and thinks that her opinion is more important than the actual bride’a and her event.

Nurses/doctors *ignoring patient concerns and blowing off questions * Also nurses/doctors: "why do patients trust Google more than me??"

The part you mentioned where the doctor was really apathetic towards the stroke patient reminds me of my own mom. She was left paralyzed, couldn’t speak, couldn’t write, etc and all the doctors and nurses I met were so rude to her and the home health care nurse she had abused her and even outside of a health care perspective people in general were rude and I hate this lack of empathy people have. That might’ve been the 40th stroke that doctor diagnosed that day but that doesn’t mean you can just roll your eyes and be annoyed

OK this nurse does not work at an ophthalmologist office. For her friend to say that talking about a piercing in her genital region is violating an Obgyn nurses consent is the stupidest shite I’ve ever heard.

The second story makes me so angry. My uncle SA-ed me when I was little. He has bipolar and it really pisses me off when they bring up the fact that he has mental illness and life is hard for him. While I can empathize with him and what he goes through I am always reminded of the fact I have PTSD now because of him and his actions. (I also have Borderline Personality Disorder from other familial trauma). I have made the decision as an adult to stop seeing him, since he is also violent. This might be my trauma talking but F*ck OP’s family. It’s ridiculous this whole mentality of “well let’s just wait for something bad to happen.” And even when something happens people turn a blind eye. I only know of ONE person who established boundaries and pressed charges when their child was SA-ed by a family member, AND their family refuses to see THEM not because they pressed charges. Family shouldn’t equal a “free pass” to SA. NOTHING should ever equal a “free pass to SA”

Flower girl stories... one of my best friends had their 2 great grandmas be the Flower girls! It was hilarious & so fitting to their personalities.

I was in a car crash and needed to get my neck and upper chest x-rayed, I have piercings on my chest and when I asked the nurse about it she was EXTREMELY professional and sweet, she laughed gently and said no I should be fine. That is how the first story should have been handled. They are NURSES AND DOCTORS?!? She wasn’t inviting them into her bedroom life, she was asking a medical question about her body and since she’s having a baby, and they are assumably doctors and nurses in that specific field who are tending to a lady’s bits all day, it shouldn’t have made her that uncomfortable??

The girlfriend who was embarrassed by the boyfriend crying: 1000% sure this is a taught behavior. Likely was told repeatedly at an early age something like "look at everyone watching you cry" as a way to embarrass her into stop crying in public. To be clear, it doesn't justify her toxic values

thank u for using translating services 💓 Im a medical interpreter and work on the daily with thousands of doctors and nurses. Every patient is always thankful for the services provided towards them with interpretations. Everyone deserves the right to not have a language barrier interrupt their health care❣️

In relation to the last story. My boyfriend found out his ex is pregnant about a month after we started dating. I would NEVER do anything to prevent him from speaking to the ex or him seeing his child. If you love someone you want the best for them. Deleting it is so selfish.

About the flirty uncle story: It depends on what kind of mental illness is present. In cases of hypersexuality or sex addiction or a mental disability that affects the recognition of boundaries, it would make some sense why he’s very sexual/flirty in general interactions - *BUT* if those traits influence the people around them negatively in a „not feeling safe“-way (not in a „I’m uncomfortable with seeing symptoms of mental illness“ way) then the caretakers are *obligated* to guide them and talk about boundaries and consent. This should already be a part of their treatment as well. Having a mental illness is a reason but not an excuse for the caretakers of the affected to not do their job.

honestly Alejandra is my all time favorite guest like i’ll even rewatch the episodes with her i value her opinions so much

Ok we got our recent Lauren episode, we got our Alejandra episode today, now we just need the triple threat back!

Yup... When I went to my first baby doctor appt i brought my husband (bf at the time) in the room bc i was terrified. During, the male gyno went on a rant about me potentially lying about the father... While my husband (who is the father) in the room. I was horrified and embarrassed he would eben assume that. Quietly told the nurses station after i never want to see that man again

I’ve been re-listening to some pods and Alejandra is so cute because she speaks as if she’s not sure if she’s “right” but usually she’s 100% spot on 😭

For the last story, I 100% believe the wife read the message and got scared that the ex would baby trap her future husband and destroy her ‘future’ with him. But even if he did read the message I say that the ex would just want child support and not him based off the fact he said he was a terrible boyfriend to her.

"I've never cried that way, even as a woman" the misogyny is coming from inside the house

I literally was on the verge of tears hearing the story about the guy and his dog. I have had to experience my husband putting down his dog, who he has had with him for 13 years. I had to hold back my own tears to allow him his time to grieve and hold her as she passes. A dog/cat or any animal is not just a pet, they are family as you both put it. Loss is loss, pain is pain and I'm so sorry that man did not have the support he needed at that difficult time.

The first red flag of the boob story was that a dude in his 30s met op at 17 going on 18 😬

Alejandra supremacy!!!! Love her takes and also how she talked about her first initial response vs validating afterward. I always talk about how your first thought is what you formed from society (“eww”/second hand embarrassment) and your second thought (no they’re able to do that/validating the choice/action) is what you yourself formed!❤️

My dogs are my babies and I would be bawling at the vet if I got that news as well. That’s like people who says “it’s just a dog” like geez, no they are practically my children who I’ve had since they were puppies.

My mom refused to let me go to where my dog was being buried because “I was going to make a scene by crying and make everyone else feel worse”. I was 12/13 and this was my family dog we’ve had since I was 2.

White dress to the wedding one: A) how stressful keeping the kid clean all day in white. B) it's a hand me down dress so it's not that big a deal to get another C) it's polite to ask and if that's how the bride feels that's how the bride feels 🤷‍♀️ Personally I wouldn't care but the husband 100% did the right thing

The first story GRINDS my gears. When I was pregnant it was peak Covid-19 and during the boom of pandemic babies, my doctor was always busy, but you better believe if I had a question they would do everything in their power to answer! This is a time of vulnerability and what you need the most is support, especially from your OBGYN or whoever is taking care of you during that time Also edit: why does a piercing, tattoo, or anything on your body dictate if you’re a good/loving mother😭

I took my cat into the vet when he was choking, literally struggling to breathe and I was a complete MESS. When they took him into the back my heart started racing and everything went black for a few moments. I was taken to the far back room, had a full panic attack with the kindest staff giving me hugs and water and checking on me almost every 30 seconds with updates on my boy. For anyone wondering, he is perfectly fine now, he has an obsession with plastic and my house is now on such a lockdown that I cannot even have plastic trash bag liners because he went so crazed not having any sort of plastic around that he might be able to find that he started eating things he normally would leave alone - including trash bags. It’s been a weird change, but pets are family and you cannot blame someone for how they react to their diagnosis or injury. The AITA Reddit says accept your label and she CLEARLY refused to accept she is TA.

I'm a 24M, im from France and since I discovered THT i realy watched everything from the most recent up to 8~9 months back, I really think it helps me to step back and grow (as a person/as a man) and I think it makes me evolve even if I already thought I was someone quite open-minded person

For the obgyn one- you can deny to talk to a nurse about things when you’re pregnant and only talk to a obgyn. It is perfectly normal to ask about all piercings pertaining to pregnancy and birth

Alejandra, look into PCOS. I’ve struggled with irregular cycles my entire life and was diagnosed in 2019. I was shocked.

This podcast really helps me in making informed decisions but also being able to understand different perspectives and I really think just that alone is important for emotional maturity

Time stamps because I don't know how to work them apparently lololol 00:01:53 : Story 1 The Nurse TW: SA !!!! 00:18:31 : Story 2 The Uncle 00:29:44 : 3 y.o in White Dress at a wedding 00:40:04 : BF mad about boob Job 00:56:40 : BF + dog at the vet 01:13:39 : Wife and text message...

Also just some advice for anyone who wants to talk to their doctor and the nurse is trying to get you to not to....just tell them it's a question your not comfortable asking the nurse, you'd like to only speak to the doctor about it

I missed Alejandra so much!!! I always like how calm and mature her takes are ✨ I loved this episode, thanks a lot Morgan for making my week AGAIN ♥️

At a friends wedding they had the whole traditional flower girl thing, but they had a grown man be a “beer guy” instead of having a ring bearer. He walked down the aisle with a small cooler handing out beers to the guests right before the start of the ceremony.

I seriously adore Alejandra! She's so fun to listen to, has great input and is literally the most stunning ever.

When I first read the little girl white dress story, my first thought was that the wife wanted her to look like the flower girl. Since there are no other kids attending, and they’re specifically not having a flower girl, I feel like her reaction to him asking makes her intention obvious. If it really didn’t matter, why was she so upset that he asked? Why is her wearing white such a big deal….. Unless she wanted it to be one. The wife must have wanted the child to stand out more, as if thats not gonna happen already being the only child there at all AND the only grandchild of all of them. I don’t blame the bride for not wanting it, even if to some its a bit much. And I would be very wary of the wife who seems to have made this her hill to die on.

No wtf. I’m a nurse and first of all you have a legal right to speak to a provider. Second of all if you’re going to be uncomfortable or judgmental about people’s personal choices with their bodies, don’t go into healthcare. Thirdly, not that she needs a reason to justify seeing a doctor, but if something goes wrong with this piercing it can lead to infection and further complications with pregnancy, and a serious infection can lead to death. 100% that nurse was in the wrong

Loved this setup a lot. Was watching before bed felt like we were all getting cozy

Hearing y’all talk about expectations for relationships really really helps me realize where I and my ex could have done it better. Thanks girlies

As a student nurse, this first story made me LIVID. It’s literally the job of the nurse to be nonjudgmental and maintain a therapeutic relationship. If she wasn’t comfortable, the nurse should’ve said that she doesn’t know and gotten a second opinion from either the doctor or another nurse.

THE UPDATE ABOUT THE TEENAGER DATING THE 30+ YEAR OLD MAN!!! I could cry, good for her. I'm so shocked that neither of you mentioned the 14 year age gap.

perfect upload time, currently recovering for giving birth n cant sleep. been watching this podcast all week nonstop

We need a dedicated episode for the absolute queens who leave toxic and/or abusive situations and hearing them thrive ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your channel keeps me so much company while I am home alone working late night hours, i’m always hoping for a new video and I’m so glad you enjoy doing what you do because I feel a bit less alone thanks to you 💕 Well actually I had never thought about this but you allow me to enjoy my alone time so much more and in a very different way, hugs

im right there with you girl. I caught some nasty flu or something, its not covid because i tested negative but omg im barely getting thu. Thank god you all uploaded. finally something to help sleep through the night XD

(TW for mentions of SA) For the first story: the nurse was completely in the wrong. But I’d like to add, while this piercing IS a sexual piercing, not all genital piercings are done for sexual reasons, for example: I got my nips pierced after I was assaulted. It was extremely healing for me, and not sexual at all. I did it to reclaim my body as my own and I felt incredible and confident and brave after, knowing that it was my body for me to do with what I please.

I’ve been a veterinary technician for 8 years now and have assisted in countless euthanasias, quality of life discussions and those hard, life changing conversations. I promise you no one in that clinic, aside from her, thought his reaction was “uncalled for”. I hope he finds better.

as a soon to be new grad nurse, the first story blows me away!! the purpose of medical professionals are to be there for support and to answer questions, about anything! the fact that the nurse called her trashy and the friend said she was the one who was being rude… unhinged!! i would never want my patients to feel uncomfortable with me and people like that give nursing a bad rep!

I work in the medical field and have seen and experienced situations where the medical staff was subjected to something they did not consent to, but those times were explicit and intentional by the patient, support person, etc. There are lines and boundaries, but a question regarding your body in an attempt to do the right thing by it is no where near “subjecting” someone to something they didn’t consent to. The patient didn’t pull down her pants and show her, she asked. She didn’t request that the nurse remove it or touch it, etc. I do think there are a lot of instances where medical prof experiences unnecessary and unwarranted situations, but how they react is very telling. Neither the nurse or the friend who wants to be a nurse should be a nurse 🤷🏼‍♀️

Morgan u n ur circle give me so much life

Just recently found you guys and honestly, these quickly became my comfort videos 😊❤️

I love these, makes me feel like I have some girlfriends talking about gossip 🤣🤣❤

She ASKED what her question was! She consented to hear about it by asking.

RE: Dog with cancer reaction. It sounds like the girlfriend was raised shoving emotions down. I bet her parents did not allow her to show emotion growing up. Does not make it okay at all just something I’m inferring

Yayyy! I've watched every episode since I discovered you guys, so happy for a new one to listen to while getting ready for work! Thank you guys for being you ♡♡♡

Oh man, the vet one. Kind of like what Alejandra said- the hardest I've ever seen my dad cry was when our 22-year-old bird passed away. This bird was like his best friend and grief affects people so differently. Public crying might be a little awkward to witness but have some effing compassion.
