Raul, found love in New York with a partner who seemed to be a dream come true. Raul invested wholeheartedly into the relationship - holding nothing back.

Only one seed of doubt existed in their connection and he sensed it from the beginning. Was Anthony going to be ready? Did he still need time to explore the world as a single man? Anthony is six years younger than Raul. After two years of bliss, Anthony pulled back and said goodbye to what we can only guess was premature Love.

Though Raul found the answer as to why they were going their separate ways, he has had a very difficult time moving on. This episode is a reflection of that love story and a way to gain peace of mind and move one step closer to closure.

Colleen's heartache carries both sorrow and wisdom. She loved her husband with all her heart. She loved the 3 girls from his previous marriage with all her heart. So much of her story with her ex is tied to the challenges of being the unwanted step-mom of a teen.

Her husband struggled with substance abuse and unfortunately, Colleen's love wasn't strong enough to overcome all the adversity that came her way. They eventually filed for divorce. At 65, she's single and carries her sorrow with grace and beauty.

Zeke is a friend of mine, originally from Argentina. He was brave enough to be my first guest, before I really knew how the flow of the show would go.

I love this conversation with Zeke as it is full of wisdom and insight. We talk about the basics of breaking up, what happens when we try and protect others from pain and some universal ways to recover from heartache. Chocolate may be a key ingredient! Do you have a favorite comfort food to help you through the pain?

They were never an "official" couple. They met on a dating app and for Elise, there were a lot of firsts: the first partner that was a woman, the first person that accepted her ace identity with understanding, the first woman she was genuinely sexually attracted too...

Over a year went by before it was clear this wasn't going to evolve into something more. Not a bite of reality Elise wanted to digest. Though they've cut off all communication, Elise hasn't found the closure she needs to fully move on.

The conversation goes beyond the topic of her breakup. We talked about dating and she discovered her lack of attraction to men, how she navigated a breakup with her first boyfriend. We talked about learning to accept yourself with all the different ways we try to fit in to the world and so much more!

By the end of our conversation, we find the core of what's holding her back and how she can find liberty! Listen to hear what happens.

Young, insecure and longing for attention, Kalei falls for a boy during college orientation. It could be love at first sight, he even seems to like her back.

This is a story of a CRUSH. Both Kalei and David fall for each other but never really put themselves out there to truly come together. Instead, they dip their toe into relationship status for 2 weeks and quickly bail - only to become best friends...for years.

Time passes, they move to different cities and have new relationships. Yet, Kalei can't shake David from her thoughts. Apparently David can't shake Kalei either, even though he's been in a long term relationship.

Kalei and I cover a lot of ground about her family, her insecurities, and it gets intense when we start unpacking some of her true motives and desires. Kalei likes to hide from the whole truth to protect herself. I won't let her though. Listen to find out what happens!

Owning a business together, raising kids, and being actively involved in the community was just the beginning of the plan. Nick and his wife were a team with big dreams! Unfortunately, they would fight. Fighting led to conversations about divorce. It wasn't until he found she was unfaithful that he started to accept letting her go, letting the plan go. Nick learned a lot of lessons but the one that empowered him the most was realizing he ignored his intuition giving him insights along the way.
