About this episode
A listener asks: is dating someone fresh out of a six-year relationship a red flag… or just real life? Kat and Latisha dive into emotional timelines, what really counts as a “rebound,” and why breakups aren’t always what they seem. Plus, Lastisha opens up about her own dating history - revealing she’s never actually been the one to do the dumping.
