This week, Janelle is talking about the kind of moments that make you pause and think… did that really just come out of your mouth?

It starts with a very real decision. Whether or not to invite extended family to her daughter's dance competition, knowing there's a history there, and knowing that what should be a fun, supportive event can easily turn into something else.

Because sometimes it's not just about showing up. It's about the energy people bring with them, the comments, the expectations, the way everything somehow becomes about them.

From there, Janelle shares some of the most inappropriate, invasive questions her followers have been asked by in-laws… and it quickly becomes clear that for a lot of people, this isn't rare… it's a pattern.
