It’s Complicated with Nicoletta Heidegger, LMFT: Rom-Com Vom
Episode description
In It’s Complicated, Meryl Streep is a thriving divorcée caught between her sleazy ex-husband and a soft-spoken architect. What starts as a steamy rekindling quickly turns into a chaotic spiral of questionable decision making.
This week, we're unpacking what It’s Complicated gets right about midlife sex, healing, and regret — and what it leaves out when it comes to agency and growth. Plus: how Nicoletta’s real-life work with couples and families adds context to the emotional wreckage onscreen.
