  • Millennial DILs Unite Here

    Love the content. Gotta work on getting rid of the background noise, text message tones, banging, etc. I feel validated every time I hear these stories and less alone. Y’all are my tribe.

  • I wish this podcast was around when I had young kids

    Janelle gets me and it sounds like young women are dealing with the same problems I faced 25 years ago with my mother in law. Janelle often points out that MILs who aren’t kind to their DILs shouldn’t be surprised when they find themselves without the access they expected. I’ve been married for 30 years and my in laws have never been kind to me. Now they’re 92 and have always, and continue to expect the family, now 25 of us, to revolve around them, cater to them, and tolerate endless mistreatmen... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

35 - Still Talking About… YOUR Questions
Q: What should a couple do when they disagree on no-contact with certain family members?
Drill down to the underlying reasons, confirm whether the behavior is disrespectful, and ensure there is a united front; if one partner cannot accept the boundaries, re-evaluate the marriage and consider professional help to resolve the fundamental differences.
35 - Still Talking About… YOUR Questions
Q: How do you talk to kids about limiting contact with grandma when the relationship is strained?
Explain the situation age-appropriately, focusing on the facts and how the behavior makes you feel, and reassure children that boundaries are about safety and wellbeing rather than punishment; keep the conversation focused on family harmony and model healthy boundary-setting.
34 - Still Talking About… Death By a Thousand Cuts
Q: So why don't you take me through the origin story of your relationship with your mother-in-law?
Melissa describes a series of microaggressions and boundary encroachments that escalated over years, including long drives across provinces, a lack of reciprocity, and the partner's mother wanting control over family dynamics. The core is learning to navigate chronic tension while maintaining care for the kids and the partner, and deciding how much effort to invest in repairing the relationship.
16 - Still Talking About… The Family Group Chat
Q: Give me the rundown on what happened with the family group chat and why you left it.
Sheena explains the pressure to rejoin a long-standing chat, her gradual withdrawal due to constant pings and the shift toward prioritizing real-life relationships and privacy for her kids, which ultimately led her to leave the chat and reassess how she communicates with extended family.
12 - Still Talking About… Emotional Manipulation
Q: Hey Janelle, I've been watching your podcast and wanted some advice. My soon to be mother-in-law has been saying rude comments for about a year and a half. What should I do?
Janelle discusses the importance of emotional boundaries and reassures the follower that they are not at fault for their mother-in-law's behavior, encouraging them to take space if needed.
