#199 Letting Go of Relationship Shame wi...

BREAK UP BESTIE
About this episode

Today on the show I'm joined by Rory Uphold who is the host of the Crimes of the Heart Podcast and we had such a great conversation about all things breakups, dating, and relationships. We talk about the power of rock bottoms when it comes to relationships, why we tend to settle, the anxiety we tend to give relationships, and we talk a lot about the topic of shame and how we can overcome feeling that way.

Be sure to check out Rory on Instagram and Crimes of the Heart wherever you listen to podcasts!
