Are you the one who freezes when things get uncomfortable, or are you the one who keeps pushing for an answer? In this Q&A solo episode of The Tamsen Show, Tamsen sits down with producer Johanna to answer the spiciest questions you have sent in, and she does not hold back on any of them. She talks about what almost five years of marriage to Ira has actually taught her about conflict, the cosmetic work she does and the work she has stopped doing, and an honest answer to a voicemail from a 51-year-old woman trying to figure out how to start dating again after a long marriage. In this episode, Tamsen answers: -How to handle conflict when one of you freezes and the other one pushes -How to manage your relationship with an aging parent without letting the worry consume you -What cosmetic work she actually does, what she would never do, and what changed her mind about filler -The wildest moment she has ever had with a follower in public -How long she was single after her divorce, and how she knew she was ready to date again -Whether she would ever go on a GLP-1, and what shifted her perspective If you have a question you would like answered in a future Q&A, send it our way.
