Boomers and Gen Z both agree these things need to go: 

1. Spam calls and texts
2. Hidden fees
3. Monthly subscriptions
4. Influencer content
5. Overpriced concert tickets
6. Clickbait headlines
7. Pointless meetings
8. Micromanagers
9. Shame around changing careers
10. Overpriced airport food
11. QR code restaurant menus
    

The Tinkerbell Effect: The gist? Belief itself can make things real. In the original tale, Tinker Bell only survives if people believe in her.
Psychologists have borrowed this idea to explain how belief can shape our reality…not just in Neverland, but in everyday life. From confidence boosts to better mental health, your mindset may hold more power than you think. Of course, like any kind of magic, the Tinker Bell effect needs to be used wisely. But when applied thoughtfully, it can be downright transformative.

We broke up, can I keep his mom? Jordan on Instagram DMs writes: My ex and I broke up over a year ago, but his mom and I stayed close. Every couple of weeks we meet for coffee, text about books, and she even invited me to her birthday brunch. My ex just found out and flipped, saying I’m crossing a line. But honestly, she feels like family to me, and we never even talk about him. Is it wrong to stay friends with her, or does breaking up with someone mean breaking up with their family too?

Second Date Update: Chris calls us to see if we can connect with Julie. They met at a networking event in SF recently and really hit it off! Lots of texting and funny banter and they FINALLY had dinner a couple weeks ago. Everything was going so smoothly (and he rarely dates so this is a big deal for him) and in the middle of dinner she said she "wasn't feeling well" and left abruptly. He followed up that night on text....no word back. Was it something he said about her daughter?
