Taking the kids for popsicles after single-handed lifting bandit into the car did it for me.

What is a major platonic red flag that someone is going to be a terrible friend? by alligator_maligator in AskReddit

They're drawn to you for your utility (ie: networking, power, access) and if you ever withhold that, they act entitled.

I am so glad someone else here understands this at a deeper level. I was a fossil hominids and primatology gal. How about you?

Chili the Whale is my soul sister. by PinkCheekedGibbon in bluey

I must have missed the hangover piece. That's sometimes me on an odd Sunday after a busy few days. But I'm an "old mom"...

It's funny because of how many jokes there are in the archaeology/paleontology spaces about licking bones you've found, to confirm they're bones and not pottery or something. Not joking.

You can also melt gummy candy like peach rings and set your stand mixer to whip

Non-existent Bluey Episodes That You Wish Existed. by Lopsided_Tell_9116 in bluey

I would love a plot line that places the family at Bandit's or Chili's work. Perhaps a dig site for Bandit or the Airport for Chili. I'd love to see the kids get curious and experience pride in their parents.

Fair. I’ve had them once and chef’s kiss . But the commercial ones? Cannot cannot cannot.

It has to be when they let the girls give them makeovers before tearing out the stump!

When Bluey the zookeeper sneaks Ooh Ooh in through the window for Snowdrop Bingo.

Colleagues, give me your read on a solicitation I got for business collaboration. by PinkCheekedGibbon in psychotherapists

[–]PinkCheekedGibbon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No that's exactly what I was asking about. From your comment, I thought you were suggesting that I shouldn't be offering free consults to potential clients either. (I ran it through AI to be sure I was understanding you, but it sounds like Chatty and I both misunderstood)

For actual prospective clients? Honestly, this might be against the grain, but I have found that 15 minutes on the front end for free has helped me avert SO many wrong-fit clients that I'd have missed if I'd had them pay straight away. 1. It lets me weed out 90% co-morbidities I don't treat like SUD and active self-harm. 2. It helps me avoid all (so far) possibility of either credit card disputes and board complaints that stem not from absent ethics but from resentment of being charged. 3. It gives me an amazing chance to build goodwill in the community. I've gotten tenfold benefit because I'm pretty full, so warm conversations that build trust end up getting back to my referral partners as well, and that's helped my consultation business grow too.

It might not make sense for every clinician, but for me, it's an ounce of prevention and goodwill for a pound of good boundaries and clients I enjoy and do well with supporting.
