#296 How to Navigate Breakups and Heartb...

Amy Baldwin and April Lampert| Pleasure Podcasts
About this episode

What are some of the signs you should break up in relationships, as well as the top tips for navigating them with as much success and ease as possible? What if you know you should break up but feel like you can’t do it? How can people cope with a breakup - especially when they are feeling so much sadness, loss, anger and/or grief? Is "conscious uncoupling" or closure conversations available to everyone? And what can breakups teach us as valuable tools in moving forward? Repeat guest Dr. Aly answers all this and more.
