... The Conversation Nobody Wants to Have

Think your friends are the problem? Before you send that angry text, block somebody, or start another group chat called “Can You Believe Her?”… you might want to look in the mirror.

In this episode, Thera gets real—and a little ruthless—about the habits that can turn a good friend into a toxic one. From “brutal honesty” and emotional scorekeeping to jealousy, control, and the dreaded inability to say “I was wrong,” we're having the conversation nobody wants to have.

Because sometimes you don't need a new friend.

You need a new approach to friendship.

“Honey… before you blame another friend for walking away, ask yourself one uncomfortable question: Did they leave because they're toxic—or because they're finally tired of dealing with you?”

There is nothing wrong with loving your son-but when does a close mother-son relationship become too close?

In this episode of Dear Thyra: Real Advice for Weathered Women, Tammy tackles the uncomfortable topic of boundaries between mothers, adult sons, and marriage. From constant phone calls and surprise visits to mothers who expect to know everything happening in their son's life, we're talking about what happens when Mom has trouble letting go.

Because loving your adult child doesn't mean you get unlimited access to their marriage.

And wives? This episode has something for you too.

Grab your coffee, because honey...we're going there.

*Ladies, I'm about to say something that might make a few people uncomfortable...

Your adult son is not your husband.

You can love him, call him, check on him, feed him Sunday dinner. But if you need to know where he is, what he's doing, what his wife said, what they're arguing about, and why he didn't answer your third phone call today...

Honey, we need to talk.

Because when your son gets married, Mom doesn't get replaced...

but the boundaries absolutely need to change.

And if you're already clutching your pearls?

Oh, you're definitely going to want to hear this episode.⚡
