Notes From Session

Breakups aren’t just romantic—they happen in friendships too. And no matter the relationship, the ending can leave behind a heavy kind of heartbreak. In this episode, I'll talk about all the ways breakups show up in our lives, from the partner you thought you'd grow old with to the best friend who suddenly became a stranger.

We’ll explore:

• The grief of losing someone who was once your whole world

• Why friendship breakups can feel just as painful as romantic ones

• How to hold space for your feelings without judgment

• What it really looks like to start loving yourself again

Whether it ended in a blow-up or a quiet fade, you’re not overreacting. Your pain is valid, and healing takes time.

Let’s untangle it together.

Welcome to the very first episode of Notes from Session — the space where we get real about mental health, healing, and all the messy stuff in between.

Today we’re unpacking a big one: the pressure to perform your healing. It's easy to forget that real healing is slow, non-linear, and deeply personal. You don’t have to get it perfect to be getting better.

Whether you’re a new mom, a therapist, a caregiver, or someone just trying to hold it together — this episode is your permission to take off the mask and meet yourself where you are.
