Issue XXXVIII - His #1, His Ride-or-Die (Eddie tries his hand at being an advice columnist answering: Can you change a person? Should I tell my spouse they’re unhealthy? Am I too naggy?)

Today, we will be discussing the delicate topic of encouraging a loved one's health without nagging. A listener reached out with concerns about her husband's dangerous weight and resistance to change, and we will explore whether or not we can actually change a person. Is it our job to do so? Is it kind to care, especially when the stakes are high? --- -Advice questions? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me here ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[e-mail]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-If you'd like to sponsor Doing the Best We Can (and why wouldn't you?), fill this out! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Newsletter,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ please and thank you ⁠⁠ -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send feedback + have your project shared⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Old newsletters and podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -Eddie's ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Threads --- --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/doing-the-best-we-can/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/doing-the-best-we-can/support Learn more about your ad choices.
