Note to All Listeners: Ghosting is defined as: The practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication (Oxford Languages). When you leave an abusive situation without saying "goodbye," it's not ghosting, it's "self-protection." When you quietly exit a relationship after a boundary has been violated, it's not ghosting, it's "self-respect."

Ending a relationship is never easy, but doing it with dignity and respect can make all the difference for you and the person you're breaking things off with. In this anti-ghosting episode, Gretta interviews relationship experts Dr. April Brown and Kanya "Coach Kay" Ford, who share their profound wisdom on how to break up nicely and not resort to ghosting. 

Discover:

• How to know if you should break up with someone
• Practical strategies to prepare for a breakup
• How to structure a breakup conversation with respect and clarity
• What to do about no contact
• How to heal after a breakup 

Dr. April Brown is a Licensed Mental Health Christian Counselor, National Certified Counselor, Certified Sex Therapist, Approved
EMDR Therapist, Gottman Level 3 Therapist, and a Qualified Clinical Supervisor. Coach Kay owns Love & Intimacy 101, LLC, a life, love, and intimacy coaching practice. Together, they co-host Bringing Intimacy Back Podcast.

What happens when someone vanishes from your life without a word? In this episode, host Gretta dives into the social phenomenon of ghosting with insights from researchers Yejin Park and Nadav Klein. Together, they unpack the latest research on ghosting, specifically YeJin and Nadav's study, Ghosting: Social Rejection Without Explanation, But Not Without Care. Surprisingly, some ghosts believe that disappearing without a trace is the kinder choice. While this doesn't justify ghosting, it offers a deeper look into the psychology behind it. Join us as we explore the emotional dynamics of human behavior in relationships and challenge the way we think about ghosting.

Gretta and Denise also touch on other possible reasons why people ghost, and how personal issues can lead to ghosting. This episode answers the question, "How could someone ghost?"
Aaaand, as a reminder, when you're ghosted, it's not your job to analyze your ghost. It's your job to take care of yourself. Knowledge is power, and this episode can help you identify unhealthy relationship dynamics.
