Breakup to Blessing

Breakup Healing Mistakes: Why Gym, Journaling, and Retreats Aren't Enough Ep. 143


Listen Later

Are you months or years post-breakup and still feeling worse than the day it happened? You're not alone. So many people tell me they're doing all the right things—going to the gym, journaling, talking to friends, maybe even booking a retreat—yet they still feel stuck in pain.

In today's episode of Breakup to Blessing, I'm diving into why actions alone aren't enough to heal, and what's really missing when you feel like you're "ticking all the boxes" but not moving forward.

We'll explore:

  • Why support from friends can sometimes keep you stuck instead of helping you heal.
  • The difference between healthy venting and reinforcing a victim mindset.
  • How to journal in a way that actually brings clarity, self-awareness, and growth (instead of just rehearsing your pain).
  • The science of affect labeling and why naming your feelings reduces their intensity.
  • How to shift your mindset so your healing practices truly work for you.
  • Why the people who transform most after heartbreak aren't the ones doing the most, but the ones willing to change how they think.

If you've been working hard to move on but still feel weighed down by the past, this episode will help you understand why—and how to finally shift things.
