Special Birthday Drop in Honor of G’s 50th!!!

It's birthday month for Glennon and Amanda, and if you’ve ever had a birthday that made you want to crawl into bed and also throw a parade and also cry in the shower and also text every person you’ve ever loved like: ARE WE OKAY?—welcome. You are among your people.

Because birthdays are not just cake day. Birthdays are a spotlight. A pop quiz. A referendum on: Do I matter? Am I loved? Am I seen? And if the answers don’t arrive in the exact form we imagined—texts, plans, enthusiasm, proof—our brains go: Welp. That’s that.

In this episode, we’re trying to name why birthdays bring so many feels—and how to make them suck less.

- Why birthdays can feel like a setup for disappointment

- Glennon, Abby, and Amanda’s best, worst, and most revealing birthday stories

- Why birthdays can feel like a test of your worth, love, and belonging

- How to drop the secret tests and actually ask for what you want

- Simple ways to celebrate each other all year so no one is waiting one day to feel loved
