915: Mom's Crush on Star Has Gone Way To...

Jordan Harbinger
About this episode

How do you get your mother-in-law to understand the celebrity crush she thinks she's dating probably doesn't know she exists? Welcome to Feedback Friday!

And in case you didn't already know it, Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now let's dive in!

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
  • How do you get your mother-in-law to understand the celebrity crush she thinks she's dating — because of correspondence with his interns or AI — probably doesn't even know she exists?
  • An inappropriate teacher-student relationship in the making led to your hardcore porn addiction, which causes you endless shame and interferes with your spiritual well-being. How can you get a handle on what's become a harmful habit? [Thanks to clinical psychologist and addiction specialist Dr. Rubin Khoddam for helping us with this one!]
  • How can you overcome the self-esteem and confidence issues that have kept you passive your entire life now that you've got a healthcare job where snap decisions you make could mean life or death?
  • Your dad's such a narcissist that you worry more about what he thinks of you than what you think of him. Where can you find balance, here? [This segment is sponsored by BetterHelp. Big thanks to Haesue Jo, Head of Clinical Operations at BetterHelp!]
  • Being an open-minded, critical thinker means understanding both sides of an argument — not just nodding along when your biases are confirmed. If you're still listening after having your point of view challenged on a past episode, we thank you for playing along!
  • Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com!
