It’s time for another replay! This was one of my most popular episodes in 2023 and I think it deserves more attention. It is all about what I learned during and after my last breakup. In some ways the experience was a breath of fresh air as I got to see the efficacy of my methods. I hope you will find it useful.

The lessons I cover: 

-It can hurt to lose something that isn’t good for you. 

-You are allowed to keep the positive things that someone, even an ex, reflects on you. 

-You are allowed and SHOULD toss out the things that someone says from a place of hurt. 

-Breakups really bring out the worst in us! 

-You are not obligated to stay friends with or continue doing favors for anyone you have broken up with.
