I can relate to only one of the three Dr. Phil questions in the April 2006 issue: How do I stop comparing myself to my sisters and their idea of what success is? (the other two questions are: My 10-yr-old steals things from her friends, and I don’t want to be pals with my husband’s [...]

You Deserve Better

Sorry it’s been a while. In planning out this project and trying to make it fit in with the rest of my life (other blog, other writing projects, family, household work), I tend to forget how long the writing process actually takes. Over the last few days I had some deadlines I had to meet, [...]
Dr. Phil Helps You Succeed
Posted in Dr. Phil, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged balance, career, life, o magazine, personal, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9 on May 15, 2008 | No Comments »
The three questions to Dr. Phil in the Success issue (Sept. 2001) are nice and general, so they can be applicable to almost anyone, but they all fall under the realm of you having to define “success” for yourself. I do hope there are other articles that talk about helping you define success because I’m [...]
Getting Over Myself
Posted in Dilemma-LO, Dr. Phil, Self-Esteem, vol. 2 iss. 3, tagged Dr. Phil, o magazine, Self-Esteem, vol. 2 iss. 3 on May 6, 2008 | No Comments »
I haven’t been around for a few days–I’m sorry for that. Part of it’s because I’m still trying to fit this project in with some everyday work. The other reason is that I’m still licking some wounds from being kicked to the curb (figuratively) by Dr. Phil.
In the self-esteem issue (March 2001), Dr. Phil takes [...]
Give Me Some Bad Behavior!
Posted in Dr. Phil, vol. 1 iss. 6, tagged Dr. Phil, o magazine, vol. 1 iss. 6 on April 2, 2008 | No Comments »
December 2000’s Dr. Phil is all about odd male behaviors. Here are the three questions:
My husband’s really into internet porn–he’s got friends in sex chat rooms and gets a bunch of porn pictures via e-mail. Is this normal, or is it all right that I’m freaking out about it?
My husband has the TV [...]
Do Fights Show Gratitude?
Posted in Dr. Phil, Vol. 1 Iss. 5, tagged Dr. Phil, o magazine, Vol. 1 Iss. 5 on March 27, 2008 | No Comments »
Dr. Phil this month has three questions about fighting, which seems a little at odds with the issue’s theme, though I suppose you wouldn’t ask Dr. Phil how you can be more grateful.
The first questioner wonders if constantly arguing with your partner means your relationship is in trouble. Dr. Phil says that “arguing is not [...]
Trust, Respect, Friendship–Dr. Phil’s Finding Themes
Posted in Dr. Phil, Vol. 1 Iss. 4, trust, tagged Dr. Phil, o magazine, trust, Vol. 1 Iss. 4 on March 18, 2008 | No Comments »
After only four issues, I’m starting to get a little bored of Dr. Phil. There’s yet another question about spousal trust, another question about spousal respect, and another question about balancing friendships. The spousal trust topic has been talked about in three of the first four issues. Dr. Phil only answers three questions an issue, [...]
Who Holds the Power?

In vol. 1, iss. 3, Dr. Phil talks about relationships. In every type of relationship you have, you’re in charge–and he doesn’t mean that you can control the relationship, that you’re in charge and everything goes your way. No, he means that in every relationship, you’re either giving or taking and that you [...]
Dr. Phil Feels You

This month Dr. Phil wants to get to the root of your problems, which means you may be upset about something, but there might be a bigger/deeper problem behind the general fussiness. Here’s this month’s questions:
My husband won’t help clean the house. It really bothers me, and he doesn’t notice. What [...]
Dr. Phil Brings It
Posted in Dr. Phil, Vol. 1 Iss. 1 on August 18, 2007 | No Comments »
Since the beginning, Dr. Phil has been a columnist in the magazine. It’s a self-help magazine, but sometimes you need experts to help with some specific problems or you need to read some specifics to help you. At any rate, what’s a woman’s magazine without an agony column?
For the purposes of this blog, [...]
