[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People like her appeal to women who like therapy, self-help books, life coaches, etc. … they want/need someone to tell them what to do. Sometimes it’s useful, but mostly it’s just obvious. [/quote]

OP here. Sure. My comment is mainly about the quality of her podcast which is low bar, because many podcasts are bad. I do enjoy self-help content. [/quote]

Well, if you are the kind of woman who wants/needs/likes getting “advice” from strangers who speak in obvious platitudes, then go for it. There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s not like you’re joining a cult.

The haters are just people who see through it for what it is. I’m an older Gen X who remembers the grip Dr. Laura and others had over some friends. Let’s just say those friends are the ones who have always needed therapy, guidance, help, etc.

Personally, I’d rather listen to a comedy podcast or something related to politics or world events. [/quote]
OMG, Dr. Laura! Such a creep and a phony drifter. She was so high on herself. At one point she called herself a prophet, in the Biblical sense. These guru types get inflated by success and often implode. I think Dr. Laura came to hate her audience. I always thought Suze Orman hated her audience too. [/quote]
