This week on Disgruntled, we start with wardrobe malfunctions, dog chaos, and weekend recaps… and somehow end up unpacking the emotional Olympics of being the family peacekeeper.
Bailey shares a major life update (yes, that promotion 👀), Gill gives us pet-induced stress that no one asked for, and somewhere between home renovations and sibling group chats, we get honest about what it costs to be “the responsible one.”
We talk about:
• Promotions and what they actually feel like
• The emotional labor of keeping the peace
• When sibling dynamics never leave middle school
• Why some friendships are seasonal — and that’s not a failure
• And how to stop volunteering yourself for problems that aren’t yours
At some point you realize you’ve been holding everything together for everyone… and no one asked you to.
Maybe it’s time to come back to yourself.
As always, it’s therapy — but with less crying and more boundary setting.
