Heal Your Heartbreak

In today’s solo episode, I’m diving deep into one of my favorite—and most powerful—tools for breakup recovery: contrary action. I talk about how, in the midst of heartbreak, your thoughts and feelings can often steer you in the wrong direction, and why doing the opposite of what you feel like doing can be a true game changer. I share actionable ways to put contrary action into practice, how routines can support your healing, and why building self-trust and self-esteem really starts with showing up for yourself—especially when it feels hardest. I also discuss the tricky balance between listening to your feelings and pushing yourself just enough, providing tips for what to do when motivation is at its lowest.

In today’s expert episode, I’m joined by Dr. Robert Biswas Diener, pioneer in positive psychology and co-author of the book “Radical Listening.” We dive into the power of radical listening—what it actually looks like, why it’s so hard to practice during breakups, and how improving your listening skills can radically change how you process heartbreak and receive support. Dr. Robert and I talk about why loneliness is so prevalent right now, how to coach your friends and family to be better listeners, and why so many people feel misunderstood during a split. We also dig into why it’s important to understand your motives when you’re listening—or when you’re sharing—and how to ask for the kind of support you need, whether that’s to be heard, hugged, or helped. Plus, we cover what to do when you have to listen to things you really don’t want to hear (like “I don’t want to be in this relationship anymore”) and how so much clarity actually comes from hindsight listening. This conversation is packed with practical advice for anyone navigating heartbreak, wanting to be a better support system, or looking to have healthier conversations—breakup or not.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

In today’s episode I’m joined by none other than Diego Perez—who many of you know as Yung Pueblo. This was such a pinch-me moment for me, getting to sit down with the author behind so many of my favorite books, and especially his newest release, “How To Love Better.” Diego opens up about his relationship with his wife and how their journey became the foundation for this new book. We talk about self-awareness, the idea of impermanence in relationships (and why we resist change so much), and how working on ourselves transforms the quality of our connections. Diego also shares his thoughts on how to accept breakups, when it might be time to let go, and why letting an incompatible relationship drag on can be an injustice to everyone involved. Whether you’re healing from heartbreak, looking to grow in your single life, or reflecting on what you want in your next relationship, there’s so much wisdom packed into this conversation.

In today’s solo episode, I’m diving into a term I’ve seen popping up everywhere lately—“discard”—especially in the context of avoidant attachment styles and breakups. I share how I started noticing this lingo in my Q&As on Instagram, did some research, and why the use of “discard” really doesn’t sit right with me. I break down why I believe using this term is harmful, how it can lower self-esteem, invalidate your relationship experience, and make moving forward so much harder. I also touch on the dangers of getting too wrapped up in therapy-speak and diagnostic labels instead of just allowing yourself to process the real sadness and pain of heartbreak. If you’ve felt “thrown away” in a blindsided or one-sided breakup, this episode is for you—I hope it helps you feel seen and reminds you not to tie your worth to someone else’s inability to commit.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

In today’s expert episode, I’m joined by Dr. Bob Rosen—psychologist, New York Times bestselling author, and business advisor—to dive into the concept of attachment, and specifically, how our attachments can hold us back in breakups and beyond. We explore key themes from his latest book, “Detached,” including the attachment to stability, the past, control, and even perfectionism. Dr. Rosen shares how these attachments are often rooted in fear, why learning to embrace uncertainty is so critical, and how self-love plays a pivotal role in healing after heartbreak. We also discuss the importance of community, the difference between detaching and disassociating, and practical strategies for letting go of what no longer serves us. If you’ve ever felt stuck after a breakup or struggled with moving on, this episode is packed with insight, actionable advice, and a reminder that healing is a practice—not a one-time event.

In today’s expert episode I’m joined by Britt Frank—author, speaker, and licensed neuropsychotterapist—who has been on my wish list for ages. We dive deep into the connection between breaking free from an addiction to substances and breaking free from an ex, and Britt so beautifully shares why our brains actually are on our side (even when it doesn’t feel like it!). We talk about why feeling “stuck” after a breakup is so common, the power of micro yeses in healing, and how to stop fighting with our own minds during heartbreak. Britt also explains how aligning different parts of our minds can help us move forward, and we get super real about grief, shame, and wiring our brains for healthier relationships. Plus, we discuss Britt’s latest book, Align Your Mind, and her previous book, The Science of Stuck, both of which are game changers for anyone struggling with breakups.

In today’s listener episode, I’m talking with Dionne, a proud Gen Xer who shares her story of a six-and-a-half-year, very on-again, off-again relationship that was marked by several breakups—some lasting just a weekend, others stretching to six months. We discuss how easy and addictive the breakup-get-back-together cycle can be, especially for those with anxious attachment styles, and the emotional toll it takes over time. Dionne opens up about the moment she finally decided to choose herself and the power of sticking to no contact after their final breakup. We also touch on the importance of self-compassion, learning from past patterns, and making empowered choices as you move forward in healing. I know so many of you will resonate with Dionne’s self-awareness and reflection, and I hope this episode inspires anyone who is struggling to break free from a similar relationship cycle.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

In today's solo episode, I'm diving into the topic of hitting "rock bottom" after a breakup—what it really means, why it matters, and how it can actually be a catalyst for deep change and healing. I share personal stories and draw some powerful parallels to sobriety and recovery, discussing why so many of us avoid fully feeling the pain after a breakup and the ways we try to distract or numb ourselves to avoid that lowest point. We talk about the importance of allowing yourself to truly be "done," what that looks like (and doesn't look like), and why embracing the pain instead of fighting it can provide the motivation you need to start genuinely healing. If you're struggling to let go, stuck in a cycle with your ex, or afraid of facing the sadness, this episode is here to remind you that rock bottom can be a turning point—and that this, too, shall pass.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

In today’s expert episode, I’m joined by New York Times bestselling author Laura Day to dive into her newest book, The Prism, through the lens of heartbreak and healing. Laura and I talk about why breakups are so uniquely painful, what happens in our brains and bodies when we lose a relationship, and how intuition and ego both play a role in how we cope. We get into the seven centers of the ego, how the structures of our previous relationships can become both comfort and prison, and Laura shares practical tools for redirecting your energy after a breakup—rather than just telling yourself to “stop thinking about them.” We also cover the phenomenon of telepathic communication with exes, how to cut those invisible ties, the importance of rituals around breakups, and why action and building new routines are essential to healing. If you want real, actionable advice to rebuild after heartbreak (plus a peek into Laura’s own story), this episode is packed with wisdom and support.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

Judith shares the most common unhelpful thought patterns people get stuck in after heartbreak, like all-or-nothing thinking and fortune telling, and gives actionable advice on how to identify, reframe, and work through those thoughts. We also talk about the difference between healthy journaling and spiraling, how to build self-compassion, and why healing is about getting through—not just getting over—a breakup.

In today’s expert episode, I’m joined by Dr. Isabelle Morley, a clinical psychologist specializing in couples therapy and author of the recently released book They’re Not Gaslighting You. We dive deep into the rise and overuse of “therapy speak”—think labels like gaslighting, narcissism, and red flags—and how these terms, while validating for many, can sometimes stall real healing after a breakup. Dr. Morley and I discuss why we’re so quick to diagnose our exes, the emotional pay-off behind it, and how social media has amplified these trends in dating and relationships. We also explore how focusing on an ex’s pathology can keep us stuck, the real definitions behind words like “love bombing” and “gaslighting,” and how to safely navigate vulnerability and boundaries in new relationships.

In today’s listener episode, I’m interviewing Marc, a man in his early 40s from the East Coast who is sharing the story of his recent breakup after an eight year relationship. Marc opens up about navigating an incredibly rare amicable breakup and what it really looks like to end things with kindness and respect—even when it’s still deeply painful. We talk about how the loss of his mom a year and a half before the breakup was a pivotal moment that changed his perspective on his relationship, and how his ex played a huge role in caring for his mother during that time. Marc shares the complexities of grieving alongside breaking up, the challenges of sharing a dog post-breakup, how family dynamics influenced his choices, and the importance of leaning on friends and community. This is such a powerful and honest look at what happens when “amicable” doesn’t mean “easy,” and what true healing looks like after so much loss.

In today's episode of the Heal Your Heartbreak Podcast I’m tackling something we all deal with after a breakup but don’t always talk about—those "aftershocks" that hit us out of nowhere. You know, like when you see your ex’s car pass by or a song comes on that suddenly takes you back. This idea clicked for me after chatting with Suzy Hopkins and Hallie Bateman and hearing from some of you who are dealing with these feelings too. I’m here to break down why these little triggers happen and, more importantly, how we can handle them without losing our balance. I want to make sure you know you’re not alone, and these moments are just part of the healing rollercoaster. To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

In this episode of Heal Your Heartbreak, I'm thrilled to welcome the wonderful SC Perot, the author of "Styles of Joy." We dive into SC's incredible story of discovering joy in the middle of some serious life chaos. Picture this: a pandemic hits, her career takes an unexpected turn, and she goes through a really tough divorce—all at once. Just when everything seemed upside down, SC found an unexpected source of happiness in the music of Harry Styles. Not only did she become a superfan, but she also followed his concerts across five countries! Can you imagine? Through these experiences, SC really started thinking about what joy means, why we often overlook it, and how to keep it safe from things like judgment and jealousy. In our chat, we explore her CAPS framework—cultivate, adopt, protect, and spread—on how to create more joy in our lives. Whether you're dealing with a breakup or just looking to add more happy moments to your days, this episode is packed with uplifting stories and practical tips.

In this episode, I chat with Sabrina Zohar, host of the Sabrina Zohar podcast, about why we take breakups so personally and how to shift that mindset. Sabrina shares her journey from difficult relationships and anxiety to creating content that helps others navigate dating and relationships. We dive deep into why rejection hurts so badly from both a psychological and neurological perspective, discussing how our core beliefs and narratives shape our response to breakups. We explore the importance of no contact, why grieving is essential, and why seeing an ex move on with someone else isn't the personal rejection it often feels like. Sabrina offers valuable insights about how what's meant for us won't pass us by and why taking things less personally opens us up to better relationships.

In this episode of Heal Your Heartbreak, I sit down with Suzy Hopkins and Hallie Bateman, marking the first time we've had a mother-daughter duo on the show. They join me to discuss their newly released book, "What to Do When You Get Dumped: A Guide to Unbreaking Your Heart." Suzy shares her personal journey of healing after the sudden end to her 30-year marriage, and how it inspired this candid exploration of the messy, unpredictable, and often lengthy path to recovery after a breakup. Throughout our conversation, Suzy and Hallie provide insights into how writing served as a therapeutic tool for processing grief, the concept of the "muddle" during a breakup's aftermath, and the importance of embracing both the messiness and the small steps that lead to healing. We delve into themes of shame and self-compassion, and they share pivotal moments that marked their journey towards new beginnings. Join us as we explore the profound and relatable aspects of heartache and the resilience required to emerge stronger on the other side.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDO To get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!

Today I'm so excited to introduce my friend and spiritual mentor Jessica Stone to the podcast. I originally brought Jessica on to talk about dreams and what it means to dream about your ex but we dove so much deeper into it talking about more of the spiritual side of a breakup. Whether or not you believe in spirituality I think Jessica has a beautiful take on breakups and how to heal from them and I'm so honored I got to have her on the show.
