Sam & Sierra may not be therapists, but they will tell it to you straight (even if they aren’t). Each episode, they answer listeners’ questions with compassion, radical honesty, and all the relationship advice you don’t want—but definitely need. And no, it’s not always “just break up.” (Unless you really should!)

  • Locus of control

    I love everything about this podcast and look forward to listening every time it comes out. Thank you for your care, compassion and also the sweet hilarity! One small thing: that I offer with love: I’ve heard Sam in numerous occasions refer to a « lotus of control » but I believe you mean « locus » of control, which is is a psychological term that denotes where, in our minds when we are processing conflict, we locate the source of control (internal or external). Sending so many hugs to y’all

Her sleeping over for several days is totally disrespectful and out of order, especially if your new partner is not comfortable with it. It sounds like he’s not ready for a new re... more
