On This Week's Feedback Friday:

• It's our 400th Feedback Friday! But if you want to bypass Jordan and Gabe's reflection on this landmark that may only be important to us, skip on ahead to about 12 minutes and 20 seconds [00:12:20] into the episode!
• You're going through a divorce and during a heated conversation about past wrongs, your ex-wife accused you of pressuring her into sex throughout your marriage. But then you remember times she initiated intimacy while you were asleep. What does consent really mean in a complicated marriage like yours?
• You're a 19-year-old studying in the UK who finally discovered your passion for entrepreneurship after years of directionless procrastination. But your student visa explicitly prohibits starting a business. Do you transfer back to Switzerland and disappoint your parents, or suppress this newfound drive for two more years?
• Your younger millennial girlfriend is brilliant, but her communication style at work — complete with sing-song sarcasm about boundaries and not checking emails on weekends — is rubbing her Gen X boss the wrong way. You can see both sides. How do you tell her without crushing her authentic self?
• Recommendation of the Week: Star Projector (More options in the resources at the bottom of the show notes!)
• You retired at 48 after running a successful business for 20 years and now live comfortably off investments. But when people in your Midwestern town ask what you do, their reactions range from awkward silence to outright skepticism. How do you handle conversations about your unconventional early retirement?
