  • 252: How Butterflies Turn Into Walls (and How to Take Them Down)
    Jan 21 2026

    Ever notice how love can feel exciting one moment… and suddenly unsafe the next?

    A delayed reply. A slight shift in tone. That tight feeling in your chest you can’t logic away.


    In this episode, we sit with those moments.

    Not to fix it. Not to label it. But to understand why it shows up.


    Instead of giving you another “just trust it” pep talk, this conversation explores the quiet patterns that shape how you show up in love, the emotional rules you may be living by without realizing it, and why some connections feel harder than they should… even when nothing is technically wrong.


    Episode Resources

    ✨ Take the Heartbreak Quiz to uncover the pattern quietly influencing how you love

    ✨ Join the Heal Your Heartbreak Challenge to release the heartbreak influencing your current relationships.


    In this episode, we explore:


    ✨ Why your body reacts before your mind catches up

    ✨ The difference between intuition and old emotional habits

    ✨ How past experiences can echo into present relationships

    ✨ Why closeness can feel confusing instead of comforting

    ✨ What changes when you stop fighting your reactions and start listening to them


    If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why does this keep happening?”

    This episode won’t rush you to an answer—but it might help you ask a better question.

  • [Celebrating 250 Episodes] The Self-Love Cheat Sheet: 7 Lessons I Learned From 250 Conversations About Love
    Jan 7 2026

    Ever notice how big milestones don’t always make you want to pop champagne… they make you stare at the ceiling and think, “Wow. That was a lot.”


    Episode 250 is not a victory lap or a greatest-hits episode. It’s a pause. A real one. The kind where you look back at 250 conversations about love, healing, boundaries, self-worth, and becoming yourself and ask, “What actually worked… and what was I just tolerating?” Spoiler: self-love isn’t cute quotes or morning affirmations. It’s the unglamorous practice of choosing yourself when it would be easier not to.


    Instead of giving you another “do better this year” pep talk, this episode pulls together the patterns that kept showing up again and again across 250 honest conversations. Consider it your Self-Love Cheat Sheet not for perfection, but for real life. The messy, evolving, sometimes-what-even-is-this chapter you’re probably in right now.

    ✨ The patterns that keep repeating when boundaries go unspoken

    ✨ Why healing isn’t about fixing yourself, but reclaiming your power

    ✨ What actually changes when you stop chasing and start choosing yourself
