Summary

Whether it was from a situation you thought was going to become more to your ex of five years, moving on after heartbreak is one of the most challenging parts of finding love. We're here with your breakup bestie Kendra Allen who is joining us to talk about what it looks like to regain your sense of self and come back stronger after heartbreak...to eventually meet the love of your life (or actually get back with your ex in a way that it is sustainable for the long-haul). We discuss how to know whether you made the right decision when you ended things, ways to rebuild your confidence after a breakup, and heartbreak hacks that make you unstoppable. Plus we debrief on Julie's honeymoon to Greece + Yue's family trip in China.

0:00.0	Have you ever rooted for a central couple in a horror movie? Then you are going to love House of Rain by New York Times bestselling TikTok sensation, Harley-Lauru. Happy endings and horror can mix after all. It's a gothic, sapphic romance meets supernatural suspense, equal parts sinfully spicy and bone chili. Salem was supposed to be on her honeymoon. Instead,
