On This Week's Feedback Friday:

  • Passengers, please buckle up for the next episode of Where in the World Is Gabriel Mizrahi?
  • Your best friend in Sri Lanka — charitable CEO, pillar of the community — is being stalked by dangerous criminals because his mother borrowed money from the wrong people and can't pay it back. Now you're watching from afar as threatening calls and disturbing photos shatter his peaceful life. Can friendship cross oceans to save a life?
  • Your college buddy has a PhD in medicine and a horse farm, but somehow can't cough up the $7,000 he borrowed for his son's 'emergency' tuition. Between bounced checks and elaborate excuses, you're discovering that friendship and money mix like oil and water. How far does loyalty stretch?
  • Your 16-year-old daughter escaped abuse and found stability in your home, but the custody papers still live in legal limbo. With graduation approaching, you're torn between protecting her healing and securing her future. Is disturbing peace worth the protection she deserves?
  • Recommendation of the Week: What Matters Most: Living a More Considered Life by James Hollis
  • You're 40-something and madly in love with a man 20 years your senior, but he's still sharing a roof with his estranged wife while your family whispers about daddy issues. Between age-gap stigma and messy living situations, can love conquer family judgment?
