About this episode

My most "meta" episode yet...

 

If your suffering about your relationship is caused by comparisons to illusions (rose-colored memories of your ex, Disney, Tiktok), then can we flip the dynamic on its head and re-invigorate the relationship by using illusion to our advantage?

 

Warning: I'm about to ruin attraction for you in this episode.
