Summary

This week, we’re in session with Andrew, who met his current partner because they shared the same ex, and worries that his new relationship is therefore built on a shaky foundation. We help him remove the ghost of the ex and trust the important lessons he learned from that relationship in this new one.

If you have a dilemma you’d like to discuss with us—big or small—email us at [email protected].
