The Relationship Comeback

In this episode of The Relationship Comeback, I’m joined by Norm Thibault, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a PHD in counseling psychology and nearly 30 years of experience. He received his training from many of the top relationship and family studies professionals in the world. Together, we tackle some of the toughest challenges in today’s dating world: how to maintain a healthy self-view despite constant rejection, how mental health affects your capacity for real connection, and one major blind spot our culture has when it comes to building meaningful relationships. Whether you're taking a break, actively dating, in a long-term relationship, or somewhere in between, the advice given by Norm is something all of us need to hear. 

In this episode of The Relationship Comeback, we dive into the tension between the life you imagined vs the reality you're living. We explore the emotional weight of unmet expectations and what it takes to find peace in the middle of it. You'll also hear thoughts on how dating has evolved over the years and how we can thrive in this evolution. Camille shares her thoughts on what we can each do to build a healthier, more intentional dating culture. Whether you're struggling with the gap between where you are and where you thought you'd be, or just want to be part of a better dating world, this one's for you.

In this episode of The Relationships Comeback, I’m joined by my good friend Janessa Houston as we break down the current state of dating for young adults. We discuss the challenges of modern dating—ghosting, unrealistic expectations, and lack of intentionality—and explore what we can do to create a healthier, more fulfilling dating environment. We also discussed if we could go back in time, what advice would we give our younger selves about relationships? We dive into key topics like communication, setting realistic expectations, and being intentional in dating. This conversation is full of insights to help you navigate the dating world with more confidence and clarity.

In this first episode of The Relationships Comeback, I dive into the moment I realized dating was unlike anything else in my life—no matter how hard I worked, prayed, or wanted it, the outcome was completely out of my control. That soul-crushing realization set me on a journey of emotional resilience and led to a prompting I’ve ignored for three years: to start this podcast. This podcast is my journey to figuring out dating, personal growth, and emotional resilience, and I hope it becomes a space where others can find support, healing, and a better way forward to create a healthier culture surrounding dating and the pursuit of genuine relationships.
