Okay, so I got curious about Lori Gottlieb’s husband. You know, the therapist and author of “Maybe You Should Talk to Someone”? I’d read the book, loved it, and naturally, I started wondering about her personal life, specifically, her partner. It’s that human curiosity thing, right?
First, I started with a simple Google search. I mean, who doesn’t? I typed in “Lori Gottlieb husband” and…well, not much came up. Lots about her book, her work, her son, but very little about a husband. That immediately made me think, “Okay, she’s private. Respect.”
Then I thought, “Maybe he’s mentioned in interviews?” So I dug into some of her older interviews, podcasts, and articles. I scrolled through transcripts and listened intently, hoping for some casual mention, a name, anything. Still, mostly professional stuff. She talks a lot about her experience as a single mom, which was fascinating and insightful, but it didn’t directly answer my original question.
I remembered reading somewhere that she had gotten pregnant and the father wasn’t in the picture, so I considered this might be the end of the line, the search was over, but I still wanted to know more.
I went on to read some more, digging deeper and deeper, and finally, I found out that she did get pregnant on her own, she did have a son on her own and that the child’s father was not in the picture.
Finally, I accepted the fact that Lori Gottlieb keeps this part of her life very private, and that’s totally her right. The search itself reminded me that even though we get glimpses into people’s lives through their work, there are always boundaries. And honestly, it made me appreciate her work even more, knowing she navigates these complexities of relationships and personal life, just like the rest of us.
