“I’ve been listening to HERself since the very first episode and for the most part I’ve enjoyed it. However, lately I just feel like I’m hearing the same message over and over and over again. Mental load, resentment, and challenges of gentle parenting. Maybe that is the goal, in which case, great! I’m just finding myself less interested because it feels like I’m not learning anything new. Also, sometimes I feel like it makes me look for problems in my marriage that actually aren’t there. Like, I’ll feel in a really good place with my husband (or “partner” as always said for some reason), and after listening I’ll find myself more critical or unhappy with him because there’s an undertone of “things aren’t fair for us women” that runs throughout most episodes. But hey, maybe I’m not the target audience and that’s fine! I’m sure many who already are feeling unseen benefit greatly from these messages. I personally would love to see some progression from the same topics and more growth.”
