  • TOO MANY ADS

    Way too many ads! Especially for such short clips. Not a good user experience. Interesting content, advice, and perspective minus the rudeness and condescension. Being mean adds zero value.

  • You Were/Are Right

    I’m one of those women who did listen to you in the past, heard how things should be done but think I have a better way , I do it my way and regret not doing it the way it was recommended.

  • Scolding Isn’t Necessary

    I’ve never given a 1 star review for a podcast, however I listened to a few minutes of an episode and was horrified. It’s okay to disagree with callers; however, the scolding and condescension are completely unnecessary.

  • Not the same

    I’ve listened for years and found recently the monologues are waaay too much. I listen for caller experiences and Dr Laura’s feedback, but not much of that any more. So sad.

  • The amount of ads is truly insane!

    The ads now take up more time than the episode itself. I’m grateful for the ability to fast forward through all that mess. I hate being beat over the head with ads!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Family Stress Affecting Marital and Household Well-being
Q: What's going on?
The caller describes years of marriage with increasingly abusive behavior from her husband, attempts at therapy, medication issues, and a debate about whether to stay in the current city or move to protect the kids, while seeking guidance on how to proceed.
Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Fire
Q: What should I do about the conflict with my mother-in-law and setting boundaries with her involvement in family plans?
The approach is to acknowledge the situation, communicate boundaries clearly, and avoid letting her power plays derail important family moments; focus on what you can control and address behavior directly with the involved family members.
Reassessing Household Living Arrangements With Adult Daughter
Q: What should I tell my daughter about moving out and the timeline?
Set a concrete move-out date, discuss how expenses will be managed during the transition, and brainstorm affordable housing options until she finds a replacement. Communicate clearly that the boundary is your need for independence and privacy.
Deciding Whether to Stay or Leave
Q: What would be the point of leaving?
Leaving would be an option to stop feeling horrible and possibly find someone who wouldn't do this to her, but it's not guaranteed to improve her life; the reality is she may still face lifestyle changes and the need to be on her own, with or without a partner.
To Support or Not Support an Adult Child in Early Recovery
Q: What is the caller's main struggle in managing her son's recovery?
She grapples with prioritizing her own boundaries and avoiding enabling behaviors while balancing the desire to be there for him when he's ready to seek help.
