On shrinking getting renewed for season 4......

It's part of this general trend where they make popular series drag on forever, even after the show has come to a natural conclusion.
They were originally going to only make Shrinking 3 seasons long. And Season 3 brings the show to a natural conclusion. Paul, Alice, and the gay guys are all leaving Jimmy behind, and even Sean is leaving the backyard, granted only to move next door. Also, Matthew, who granted was only a character for one season, is moving as well.
Yet they're renewing it for a Season 4? This next season seems totally forced.

I mean, unless the season finale ties things up, there’s a lot unresolved.

As OP stated, the plan from Lawrence, Goldstein and Segal was a 3 season arc with each season representing a different theme - Grief, Forgiveness, Moving On. With the additional season, they had to add additional conflict and it has made the show more awkward than its original flow.
No need for S4. Wrap it up!

My wife loves this show, I watch it with her and I hate it. All the characters are assholes.

A few years ago it was Ted Lasso, Bad Monkey and Shrinking. Right now it’s Shrinking, Scrubs (2026) and Rooster.
He and Mike Schur are two of my GOATS.

Same. It might be the worst popular show on tv. I got thru 6 eps & bailed. I'm surprised Han Solo is in this trash.
