After every heartbreak, I've always learned something new, become someone new, did something exciting for myself, to the point where I'm kind of worried that if I never have a heartbreak again, like, when am I ever going to learn Portuguese?

Because that's the time when I'm just like so good to myself. Let it all.

We did it. We made it, you guys.

2019. It's almost over.

I am proud of us as a let-it-out group.

If you're new here, this is my podcast.

My name is Katie Dailbout.

it seeped into this podcast heavily, and it could have been a drinking game how many times I said the words emotionally bloody or hyper-emotional state or I cried or I asked people about

their breakups and I got a lot of really good advice and wisdom that might be useful to you if

you're feeling that way which can be such a lonely feeling even though it's one of the most

universal feelings that so many people

have felt and made art about. And we really shouldn't feel alone in, but it feels so specific and

lonely when you're in it, which is why I'm making this clips episode of all of that advice and wisdom that I received this year from so

many angles. And a lot of it is the same but said in such unique, beautiful words that I just

wanted to put it somewhere. And what's interesting about this is that you're not

just hearing the advice, but you're also getting me in process. And you can hear it in the types
