Don't Be A Dick with Gretchen Clark

In this week’s episode, Gretchen shares the very surreal, very emotional news that she is having a baby boy, and why this pregnancy already feels so deeply connected to Moose, motherhood, and the little god winks along the way. She talks about trusting her mom intuition, the sweetness of their gender reveal with Lennon, nursery plans, and the wild reality that motherhood can make you softer and mo...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen shares the news that she is pregnant, and gets very honest about what pregnancy after loss actually feels like.

G...

This week on DBAD… it’s chaos, it’s advice, it’s “what the hell is wrong with men?” energy. We’re kicking things off with Bear updates (because obviously he’s perfect and we’re obsessed), but then we spiral, in the best way, into everything from toxic relationships to internet drama to real-life “am I the dick?” dilemmas. We’re talking: -Love bombers and emotionally unhinged men (yes, we’re naming...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen shares the emotional, unexpected story of adopting Bear, the rescue dog who showed up at exactly the right time, looking almost impossibly like Moose and Henry combined. She talks about the moment she and Troy saw his photo, why it felt like Moose had sent him, and how grief, timing, fate, and love all collided in one very surreal day. From bringing Henry and Dalla...

She’s back in your inbox. Literally. Round two of Ask Gretchen Anything, and you did not disappoint. This week we’re getting into the messy stuff: the coworker you can’t stop thinking about (you know who you are), the best friend who’s lowkey draining the life out of you, and the guy who ghosted after saying he was “on his way.” Classic. Also on the table:   ∙  When “I’ve talke...

New format. Same energy. Way more chaos. Welcome to the very first Ask Gretchen Anything episode, where nothing is off-limits and the advice is… aggressively honest. You guys wrote in with everything, from “should I dump my boyfriend?” (spoiler: probably) to situationships that are making you feel insane, to those gut feelings you can’t ignore but keep trying to rationalize anyway. This is real ta...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen gets into something a lot of women feel but don’t always know how to fix, how to be more magnetic, more confident, and better at conversation, especially when postpartum brain, social awkwardness, or self-doubt make you feel like you’ve lost your spark. She shares the simple shifts that instantly make people want to talk to you more, from being genuinely curious an...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen starts with a little life update, sweet family time with her dad and stepmom, the dogs doing better, and a few very unfiltered thoughts on the internet’s latest chaos. Then she gets into something she knows inside and out: network marketing, social media, and why so many people are sitting on a huge opportunity without fully going for it. She breaks down the differ...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen is trying to bring a little more light back in. After a brutally hard season, she talks honestly about what Moose’s loss has reminded her of, who and what actually matters, why so much of the noise we stress about is meaningless, and how grief has a way of making everything crystal clear. She also gets into finding little “glimmers” during dark moments, how her def...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen is giving the real talk on how to show up for a friend (or sister, or family member) who’s postpartum, without accidentally making it harder for her.

She breaks down the biggest postpartum do’s and don’ts, like never showing up unannounced, never arriving empty-handed,...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen gets into the messy conversation about friendship breakups that nobody teaches you. Think of her as the honest but protective, blunt BFF.  She discusses toxic friendships, one-sided effort, and that “are we still friends or…?” limbo that can hit harder than a romantic breakup. She breaks down why it feels so brutal, how to spot when you’re giving way more than...

In this week’s episode, Gretchen gets real. She talks openly about the emotional and hormonal crash after miscarriage, why even the most positive people have off days, and what’s actually going on behind the highlight reel. She covers everything from letting go of what people think, money and work, to marriage & sex after babies, boundaries, and knowing when to walk away. It’s honest, groundin...

In this episode, Gretchen wakes up in a spicy mood and turns into the blunt big sister you didn’t know you needed. We’re talking dating men, being in control of your emotions, and how to keep your standards high without slipping into pick-me energy, over-explaining, or handing some dusty guy the remote control to your emotions. She breaks down what high-quality men actually respond to (self-respec...

In this episode, Gretchen tackles the myth of balance and the guilt that comes with trying to do it all. Motherhood, ambition, marriage, business, phones, boundaries, and the pressure to be everything, everywhere, all at once.

In this episode, Gretchen opens up about motherhood without a mother of her own, and the complicated mix of grief, love, anger, and healing that comes with it. She talks about breaking generational cycles, parenting yourself while raising a child, and learning to lead with presence over perfection. Raw, vulnerable, and deeply human, this episode is for anyone navigating motherhood, complicated fam...

In this episode, Gretchen says the quiet part out loud. Who you marry will shape your mental health, your ambition, your money, your children’s future, and the kind of peace (or chaos) you live in every day. She breaks down red flags that never turn green, why chemistry without character is a trap, and how settling doesn’t make you loyal, it makes you stuck. With big sister honesty and zero fluff,...
