Stop The Internet

We’re so excited about our episode this week! Rebecca & Kelee had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Frankie Bashan, a renowned relationship coach and dating expert. Together, we read real-life dating scenarios where someone involved made an interesting choice. Then we debate if that person is hopeless and the relationship is doomed, or if they could be helped, and maybe they just need some therapy or some solid advice. 

After talking to Dr. Frankie, we feel enlightened, inspired, and so excited to share all of her amazing, professional advice. We hope you feel the same way after listening! Enjoy!
