    Carley Fortune: Female Friendships, Right Person Wrong time, and Happy Endings

    To celebrate the release of her new novel, “This Summer Will Be Different,” my favorite author Carley Fortune joins the podcast today! Carley and I chat about what we’ve learned about love and relationships from the characters and love stories in her three novels. We discuss how her childhood experiences shaped the characters and settings in her books, how female friendships play a major role in relationships, and if “right person, wrong time” holds true. Carley tells us her transformation from award winning journalist to NYT best selling author, and we hear how she met her husband and how he’s supported her through various life changes.

    “He’s Marrying (One Of) The Girls He Cheated On Me With”

    “He’s Marrying (One Of) The Girls He Cheated On Me With”

    I'm joined by a woman who opens up about how her nine-year relationship with her high school boyfriend that was filled with infidelity and emotional abuse finally came to an end. She shares how she held onto the idea of what the person she wanted him to be vs the person he was, along with how she became stronger because of what she went through. We discuss dating after a breakup of this magnitude, what she learned from working with a life coach, and what she's looking for now. Plus, we chat about how we're all guilty of accepting less than we deserve and that you're never alone no matter how isolated you feel in what you're going through.
