We respond to a question about how to tell a 14-year-old the truth about being conceived through egg donation, and explore the ripple effects of family secrets. We also respond to a listener who’s unsure how to end a long relationship with her hairstylist, and why those breakups can feel so personal. And we hear your thoughts on our advice from episode 1. Plus, Since You Askers weigh in: When it comes to being on time, what’s your view?
