Family Matters feat. Family Therapist Vi...

Dear Media
About this episode

"One big happy family" isn't always the reality so we brought in renowned marriage and family therapist Vienna Pharaon to lay some truths on us about the issues surrounding romantic relationships and loved ones. We discuss not getting along with your partner's family and vice versa, your sibling dating someone you hate, dating someone with a lot of past trauma, how to handle shitty family members over the holidays, and more. We also catch up on Rayna's LDR, Ashley's latest doorman incident, and play a new game about freaky family traditions. We hope you enjoy!
