Had I known it was already being developed as a film starring Gwynnie (does she hate that name? Sorry Gwynnie if so, but that’s what I would ask to call you if we were coffee sharing pals), I would have never read it. Good thing that I’m somewhat of a pop culture ostrich, because I’m glad I read it. If your head has been under a rock too, “Strangers” is a memoir that details Burdon’s experience of her husband unexpectedly and unapologetically leaving their relationship and their family. It is set against the backdrop of ultra-wealth Manhattan whiteness and privilege with summering in “the Vineyard” (Martha’s of course), where being inconspicuously conspicuous about having gob loads of money is the defining cultural de rigueur. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8-bgtjc-87lbk-cmetg-baegc-y4bky-z8489-wfynz monthly 0.5 2026-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/f7706aaa-17cc-4b61-982f-63d7f997d73a/image-asset+%283%29.webp BLG - How We See Ourselves vs How the World Sees Us - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8-bgtjc-87lbk-cmetg-baegc-y4bky-z8489 monthly 0.5 2026-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/96024bfd-6e12-4b13-9da3-b755fb392df7/IMG_5257+%281%29+copy+2.jpg BLG - A Slow Burn…Coming Down From the Man - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/c3e3503e-7954-4879-b0d7-af2ec793aeb3/Screenshot+2026-09-29+at+3.23.51%E2%80%AFPM.png BLG - A Slow Burn…Coming Down From the Man - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/4bf81f76-84f5-4c88-93d8-fadb60d8561a/Screenshot+2026-09-29+at+3.24.13%E2%80%AFPM.png BLG - A Slow Burn…Coming Down From the Man - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8-bgtjc-87lbk-cmetg-baegc-y4bky monthly 0.5 2026-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/961679a9-f1bf-4fb4-8181-37a2e6127a16/Screenshot+2026-09-29+at+2.56.59%E2%80%AFPM.png BLG - Taking the Plunge - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8-bgtjc-87lbk-cmetg-baegc monthly 0.5 2026-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/1ed01f90-9a03-4fad-8d27-7f14bc5c969f/Screenshot+2026-09-29+at+2.36.41%E2%80%AFPM.png BLG - Shrink Rap: Where Psychotherapy and Hip Hop Meet: Jadakiss - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8-bgtjc-87lbk-cmetg monthly 0.5 2026-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/9e8e9a9f-ad13-46ea-9306-ec8af2840e5e/Screenshot+2026-09-29+at+3.20.39%E2%80%AFPM.png BLG - A Group for Dads Inspired in part by working with clients; sons and fathers of sons, of all ages, as well as the work of Michael J.

Well it was less of a question, but more of an imperative and a struggle to come to terms with it. Yes, I’d love to spend all day with my kiddo. And yes, that would probably cause some meltdowns, not just his, but mine too. But the idea or fantasy of it is wonderful. But alas, as I run my own businesses, it’s just not possible. (I’d be remiss to note that it's a privileged place to be able to afford daycare, especially in the HCOL city of Los Angeles.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/c654007f-6c11-45da-820d-f6e79c04c353/3a56c25f0968c5bf3350f7c7c9e3712c.jpg BLG - Embracing Daycare: A Journey of Parental Guilt to Understanding - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8-bgtjc monthly 0.5 2026-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/1f8001d8-ee63-484c-bd6a-615f71da2ff8/image-asset.webp BLG - Reflective Parenting: A Father's Perspective on Nurturing Emotional Intelligence - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd-9szb8 monthly 0.5 2026-09-30 https://www.brandongrosstherapy.com/essays/artem-m7zbb-agzcj-fnb2f-9xzmd monthly 0.5 2026-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa2dca742da28040081cdd2/e357480f-6e4d-4a7b-9b56-c3d6c571b0c8/IMG_1749.webp BLG - How Do You Receive Notes? - Snapped this photo at the beach.
