He shares openly about the trauma beneath compulsive behaviors, how shame thrives in secrecy, and why true freedom is found through inner work and relational honesty.

What if the reason your relationship feels off has nothing to do with your partner—and everything to do with a pattern you don’t even realize you’re stuck in? In this episode, Jillian breaks down the one habit that quietly sabotages even the healthiest relationships: keeping score. From romantic partnerships to friendships and family dynamics, scorekeeping erodes emotional intimacy and creates distance. Jillian explores why we fall into this pattern, how masculine and feminine energies often give love differently, and how resentment can build when those efforts go unrecognized.
