In today's episode I interviewed Connor Beaton who you may know from @mantalks. He has been a coach to tens of thousands of men over his career and has really been able to not only get to the bottom of what men struggle with but has also found a way to impact them in a really significant way. In this episode we talk about what men struggle with, why men don't turn to community in the way they should, how men deal with breakups, and so much more. I also put this disclaimer in the intro but just because we're talking today about the struggles of men does not mean we are taking away from the struggles that women go through.

In today's listener episode I interviewed Lauren and heard about her relationship and breakup story that happened last year. She was with her ex for 7 years and about 6 years into the relationship she realized she was not happy but kept trying to ignore it so she could stay in the relationship. Ultimately she ended the relationship and finally went no contact. We discuss how difficult it is to end a relationship when nothing is innately wrong, how to find yourself single, how to rely on your support system and so much more.

In today's episode I'm interviewing Jake who has a really inspirational breakup story. His 4.5 year relationship ended 6 months ago, they had looked at rings and he pictured spending the rest of his life with his ex. Then a combination of things led to the breakup, and he talks about owning his part in the breakup, and how he worked through those things. He also talked about finding a life HE loved after the breakup instead of having life revolve around a partner. Jake's episode gives so many great insights.

I recently asked my Instagram community "if you were the one to end the relationship, why did you do it?" and in today's podcast episode I read through some of the answers. The purpose of today's episode is to give you a different perspective on the "dumper". It's easy to assume that the person who ends the relationship does so without much consideration, but I know that's not the truth.

I often talk on Instagram and the podcast that "acting as if" is the best way to move forward from the breakup when you don't fully accept the circumstances yet, but what does that mean? In this episode I talk all about how the best way to change your thinking is to first act as if and change your actions. What actions should you take when you're trying to move forward? What if I don't want to move on from my breakup? I answer all of that and more in today's episode.

In today's episode I talk about the phrase I respond to so many DM's and questions with which is "it's because you're human". I talk about how we hold ourselves to an unrealistic expectation when going through a breakup and don't take into account that we're human beings with a broken heart. This episode encourages a lot of self compassion and grace and is great for anyone who finds themselves questioning their emotions and reactions post breakup.
