Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Dr. Laurie Santos from the Happiness Lab here. It's the season of giving, and this year my podcast, the Happiness Lab, is partnering with GiveDirectly, a nonprofit that provides people in extreme poverty with the cash they need as part of the Pods Fight Poverty campaign. Our goal this year is to raise $1 million, which will bring over 700 families out of extreme poverty.
Your donation will put cash directly in the hands of these families in need. And they'll get to decide how to use it, whether that's school transportation, purchasing livestock, or starting a business. Plus, if you're a first-time donor, your gift will be matched by giving multiplier, which means more money for those in need. Visit givedirectly.org slash happiness lab to learn more and to donate.

Hi, I'm Radhida Vlukia, and I am the host of A Really Good Cry podcast. This week, I am joined by Anna Runkle, also known as the Crappy Childhood Fairy, a creator, teacher, and guide helping people heal from the lasting emotional wounds of unsafe or chaotic childhoods.
Talking about trauma isn't always great for people. It's not always the best thing. About a third of people who are traumatized as kids feel worse when they talk about it, get very dysregulated.

Chapter 2: What is the main issue Mick faces after his girlfriend's girls trip?
And this may be the worst part. Their answer was, it's not really our place to tell you. Oh, that's the worst. And that also makes me think the girls want him to know. Because if they were at his back, they would just be like, oh, what are you talking about? Right. They would lie to make him feel good, but they didn't do that. They put him into this limbo.
So as you can expect, Mick is totally freaked out. He's turned to us for advice because she clearly does not want to open up to him about it. We need to help bring down those walls. So, Brooke, what's your advice for Mick?
So easy. Really?
Speculate something even worse that could have happened. So then it's easy for her to confess whatever it actually is. So you say, listen, I talked to your friends. They said you had to tell me my mind's going crazy. Did you kill someone? Because that's what I'm thinking. You're going to jump right to murder. Then she feels comfortable to say, no, it's not.
Mick, are you comfortable questioning your girlfriend on a potential homicide? I think that's genius. I was scared of something else, but this is a much better way to break the ice on that, yeah. I'm shocked that you would actually think that's a good idea. Like, if I accused her of cheating, that's just an instant fight whether she did it or not.
No, but yeah, accusing her of murdering a stranger. If she didn't murder someone, like, where are you supposed to even go from that?
want to confuse her yeah she'll totally trust you exactly plus like accidental deaths happen all the time have you killed someone before me why are you so happy about sorry no let's not even get into it and frankly i don't think we should give any more advice after this so let's just let's dial adrian for you hopefully she answers our number thank you so much i would take a deep breath before you do this try to go in with a level head but we got your back if you need us i'm going to dial it right now here we go
Hello? Hey, it's me. How are you? Who are you? Like whose phone are you calling from? It's just like you haven't really been responding to me. So like I kind of figured maybe a different number would... Maybe give me the opportunity to talk to you because, like, I haven't seen you. And, like, I'm your boyfriend, so why won't you talk to me? Yeah. Sorry.
I am just kind of in the middle of something right now, though, but... Oh, like, okay. I'm sorry about that, but, like, I miss you. Like, again, you just haven't talked to me all week and... Like, usually when you, like, it's got to be the trip, right? Because usually you come back and I get to hear about, like, what you've done, and I just haven't, you haven't said anything about it.

Chapter 3: What are the signs that something might have happened during the trip?
Wait, what? Hold on.
No, it wasn't... I... Then what happened? Okay, okay. I'll tell you this. There was another guy on the trip who did pay a lot of attention to me.
Okay, I... Like, do I know him? No. He's kind of famous. What are you talking about? Famous? Sort of.
Well, it was two seasons ago.
He was on The Bachelorette. Okay, okay. So what? So he flirted with me. And? And it just made me question things. Like, if i settled and am i dating down because god he was like ripped oh god who are the other people listening are you on speaker with people nobody flirt with her she's He's very susceptible. I guess, yeah. So you're dating down? Hold on, Mick. Hold on. Hold on.
Let's help Adrian understand what's going on here. So you're on the radio. This is called an Awkward Tuesday phone call. The reason Mick is on with us is because he was worried about your behavior after you got back from the girls' trip. And apparently it was for good reason that he was concerned. So, like, nothing else happened. That was it. No, I told you, and I wouldn't do that.
I'm not that girl.
i'm not i'm not a cheater okay you're just one step shy that's kind of nice but she didn't do anything dating down that's like the part i can't get over like i said i said dating down question mark i was asking myself am i i wasn't saying that as a statement or that i decided that i'm just thinking about it i'm being honest with you you wanted honesty i'm being honest with you okay but you get how that would suck right
