    the big sister advice you need on dating, one-sided friendships & feeling behind in life

    It's just us today for a little tough love slash big sister advice, and apparently we're all going through the same things (which is both comforting and mildly concerning). Today we're getting into moving on from someone who doesn't want a relationship, feeling like everyone's first call but nobody's first choice, forgiving yourself when you've messed up, and the existential crisis that comes with turning 30 (& how to get through it). A lot of perspective, a few reality checks, and some reminders I think we could all use right now.

    why heartbreak hurts so much: the psychology of healing & moving on ft. Sabrina Bendory

    A conversation on healing, heartbreak, and remembering who you are. This week, we're revisiting one of my favorite conversations with relationship coach and author Sabrina Bendory, all about the science of heartbreak and what it actually takes to get over someone. From the psychology of attachment to the almost addictive nature of heartbreak, we're unpacking why our brains hold onto people we've already lost, why situationships can be especially painful, and how to stop confusing missing someone with needing them back. We also talk: no contact (which is RULE #1!!!), breaking the cycle of romanticizing your ex, rebuilding your confidence after rejection, and learning to trust that the end of a relationship says absolutely nothing about your worth. As always, take whatever resonates & leave the rest. LOVE YOU. x Thank you so much to Air Doctor for sponsoring this week's episode!

    why you're so hard on yourself: high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, & self-worth ft. Therapist Debbie Missud

    A conversation for my fellow anxious, perfectionist overthinkers who are really good at holding it all together but have a much harder time slowing down. I'm Unwineding with Therapist Debbie Missud & unpacking the psychology behind high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, and unresolved trauma. We're talking about why we tie our self-worth to productivity, why rest can feel so uncomfortable, the hidden ways trauma can show up in our minds, bodies, and relationships, what functional freeze actually looks like, and how to recognize when your nervous system is overwhelmed. We also get into our need for control, the changing dynamics of female friendships, why being sensitive isn't something you need to fix, and how to start breaking the patterns that keep us stuck. My favorite reminder from this episode, though? Your worth was never something you had to earn. As always, take whatever you need from our conversation and leave the rest.

    the relationship advice every woman needs to hear ft. Sabrina Zohar

    Why do we keep repeating patterns we know aren't good for us, even when we're self-aware enough to recognize them? This week, I'm Unwineding (again) with the incredible Sabrina Zohar to talk about love, dating, self-sabotage, attachment styles, and why understanding yourself is only the beginning of actually changing. We get into overthinking, hyper-independence, emotionally unavailable partners, why almost-relationships hurt so much, how to navigate conflict, and what it really takes to build healthier relationships—with ourselves and others. We're also celebrating Sabrina's new book, Why Am I Like This? A conversation every woman needs to hear. As always, take whatever you need and leave the rest.

    what my 30s are teaching me about success, timing & self-trust

    Just us today for a life update, a big milestone, and a few of the lessons I've learned along the way. Unwineding has a new home (hi Podcast Nation!!!), and it inspired today's conversation on the power of consistency, trusting the process when you're not seeing results, getting comfortable with being seen, and letting go of the timelines we place on ourselves.

    how to trust yourself when you overthink everything ft. Therapist Tara Montazeri

    What happens when your own brain becomes the thing you’re constantly trying to reason with? This week, I’m Unwineding with therapist and OCD advocate Tara Montazeri for a conversation about what OCD actually looks and feels like—especially when the struggle is happening entirely inside your head. We talk about the cycle of intrusive thoughts, anxiety, compulsions, and temporary relief; why reassurance can actually keep us stuck; the overlap between OCD, ADHD, perfectionism, and overthinking; and what happens when the traits causing you distress are the same ones the world has rewarded you for. Tara also explains why OCD is so obsessed with certainty, how it can show up in dating and friendships, why our thoughts aren't always trustworthy, and how learning to tolerate uncertainty can ultimately become an exercise in trusting yourself. Plus, we get into mental compulsions, relationship OCD, the problem with diagnosing ourselves on TikTok, how to support someone with OCD without accidentally reinforcing the cycle, and why someone can look completely put together while privately fighting a battle you know nothing about. And, as always: this episode is meant to increase awareness and curiosity—not to diagnose yourself, your boyfriend, your situationship, or anyone else in your life, okay???!

    hyper-independence: why you're so good at giving love but struggle to receive it ft. Dr. Suzanne W.

    What happens when you've become so good at taking care of yourself that letting someone else love you feels uncomfortable? This week, I'm Unwineding with psychologist Dr. Suzanne Wallach for a conversation about the psychology of connection: how we build meaningful female friendships as adults, why modern dating feels increasingly complicated, and how to stop letting hyper-independence get in the way of the relationships we actually want. We get into adult friendship breakups, making friends in your late 20s and 30s, dating app fatigue, attachment styles, and why ambitious, independent women can struggle with vulnerability and receiving love. Dr. Wolek also breaks down how childhood experiences and parentification can shape our relationships, why self-awareness alone isn't enough to change our patterns, and how behavioral therapy can help us learn to let people in. Because being capable of doing everything yourself doesn't mean you have to. And you can build a beautiful, independent life while still allowing yourself to be loved, supported, and cared for. As always, take whatever resonates & leave the rest.

    female friendship: finding your people, friendship breakups & growing apart ft. Elyse Fox

    Female friendship is one of the great loves of our lives—and sometimes one of the most complicated. This week, we're revisiting one of my favorite conversations with Elyse Fox, founder of Sad Girls Club, about making friends as an adult, finding your people, outgrowing friendships that no longer fit, and becoming the kind of friend you want to have. We talk friendship breakups, reciprocity, making the first move with a potential new friend, supporting the people you love through hard seasons, and why some of the best friendships might not come in the packaging you expected.
