Season 4 Ep 16: Express Yourself: Real Housewives, Inflammation, & Moms with Needs

In our newest Episode’s Poppin’ Culture segment, we discuss The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and the sometimes complicated nature of sibling-in-law relationships. Then, we do an Academic Deep Dive into new Psychoneuroendocrinology research titled, “Your Suffering is My Stressor: Proinflammatory Gene Expression Rises with Spousal Distress in Middle-Aged and Older Couples,” led by Dr. Stephanie Wilson at Southern Methodist University. Last up, in Good or Bad Advice, we react to TikToks on the difficulties of motherhood, making it look easy, and balancing our needs as parents with our need to prioritize our kids.
