Have you ever thought about an ex while in your healthy relationship? (maybe even an ex you’d been in an unhealthy relationship with?)

In today’s episode, I sit down with Lindsay O’Brien, a Dating Coach, Breakup Mentor, and Energy Healer who went through her own journey from divorce and narcissistic abuse to appreciating healthy, stable love.

We discuss how to take our ex’s off the pedestal to be more present and appreciative of the person in front of us.

In this episode I answer a question from a You Love and You Learn community member: “you’ve mentioned something along the lines of ‘choosing to be all in and not one foot in, one foot out’ - I find myself feeling one foot out but I’m not sure what to do to feel two feet in. What does it mean to be two feet in? I say it in my head but then I’m not sure I’m choosing so in my actions.”

Do relationships inevitably become boring after the “honeymoon phase” ends? If we’re feeling bored in our relationship—is that a sign something is wrong?

Relationship anxiety has so many parallels with what it means to be human.

It’s an invitation to lean into uncertainty, discomfort, and change.

It’s an invitation to build more self-trust, acceptance, and contentment (peaceful happiness).

It’s an invitation to practice releasing expectations, taking responsibility, and explore our values.

All of these are not only part of relationship, but part of LIFE, and that’s what I explore in this week’s episode.
