- The Currency of Being UsefulWhat happens when being useful becomes more than something you do and starts becoming how you understand your value?
In this case file, I follow that question backward.
Through childhood, marriage, motherhood, caregiving, and the strange currency of being the person who can always handle it, I start looking at the difference between being needed and being loved.
This isn't a resolution.
It's evidence.
Facts before conclusions.
Curiosity before certainty.
Evidence before assumptions.30 min - Who the Fuck Is Jilted Girl?So who the fuck is Jilted Girl?
Fair question.
After nearly twenty years away from dating, I came back with questions. About dating. About men. About myself. And apparently, I decided the reasonable thing to do was get a microphone and start investigating.
This is the introduction.
Not the polished version. Not the dating résumé. Just the woman behind the case files—and why I'm here in the first place.
Dating is the laboratory.
Identity is the mystery.
Welcome to Jilted Girl.19 min - Start HereBefore there were case files, there was a question:
What actually happened?
I thought I was investigating dating; then the investigation started looking at me.
Start Here is the beginning of Jilted Girl: the experiment, the evidence, and the question underneath all of it.
Facts before conclusions.
Curiosity before certainty.
Evidence before assumptions.
Well... this should be interesting.16 min

From the publisher's feed
Dating is the laboratory. Identity is the mystery.
Jilted Girl began with a question I couldn't stop asking:
What actually happened?
Not what I hoped happened. Not what I feared…
Jilted Girl began with a question I couldn't stop asking:

happened. Not the story I constructed at two o'clock in the morning because someone didn't text me back. What actually happened?
So, I started looking at the evidence. I thought I was investigating dating. It turns out dating was only where the investigation began.
Jilted Girl is a first-person investigation into the stories we inherit, the stories we tell ourselves, and the strange ways they follow us into love, family, loss, identity, and the choices we make without ever quite knowing why.
There are case files here. Men and messages. Mixed signals and questionable decisions. But there are also childhood stories, old assumptions, unexpected patterns, and moments when the evidence points somewhere I absolutely did not expect.
This isn't a dating advice podcast. There are no gurus, no ten-step plans, and no pretending to have all the answers. We're going to look at what actually happened.
Facts before conclusions.
Curiosity before certainty.
Evidence before assumptions.
And if the evidence changes, so does the working theory.
Sometimes it's funny. Sometimes it's uncomfortable. Sometimes it gets surprisingly personal.
But that's the investigation.
Don't solve mysteries that time will solve for free.
Well... this should be interesting.
