Episode 133: The Quickie: How To Breakup Without Being An Asshole

So, it's time to learn how to navigate tough talks with confidence and grace!
Episode 103: Asking For A Friend: What Are Some Major Red & Green Flags In A Relationship?
A wise person once said, love is blind. But let's be real…sometimes love can be straight up oblivious! Whether you’re single and dating or in a long-term relationship, green flags and red flags always seem to come up as signs that things are either going great, could use some work, or that it’s time to GTFO.
So, today we’re tackling a question that a lot of our friends and listeners have been talking about lately — how to spot a red or green flag in a relationship, and what to do when those red flags start adding up. Pour yourself a glass of your favourite bevy (it’s a fun one!) and join us as we read, rate, and drink our way through the red and green flags you DM’d us on IG, and discuss/debate how good or bad each scenario really is.
Episode 61: We Turned Two! Our Biggest Life Lessons Learned
If you’re fresh out of a breakup and are feeling alllll of the feels, this one's for you. Navigating a breakup is never easy, but you’re far from alone. A study last year showed 25% of Canadians between the ages of 18-24 split up during the pandemic, and 5 million Canadians have experienced a recent breakup.
Experts say it can take 6-8 weeks to get over the initial intensity of heartbreak, but with a lack of access during lockdowns to the normal stuff we do to get over our exes, and an ongoing mental health crisis, the “getting over it” part has been hard lately. That leaves us with the inner work we have to do: Finding out who we are again, rewriting our narratives, filling that void, and loving ourselves first.
We called in breakup expert Lindsey Ellison to help us fall in love with our life again and manifest the dream partner that we deserve. Because when you can feel happy on your own, you're raising the bar for the next partner you bring into your life.
