    Why Do I Fall For The Wrong People...? with Sasha Pallari

    We grow up thinking love is supposed to feel a certain way... Butterflies. Intensity. Stability. Someone choosing you. But what happens when you’ve had the wedding… The divorce… The once-in-a-lifetime love… And you’re still asking, what do I actually want? In the first episode of Why Do I (Season 2), I’m joined by Sasha Pallari!! Sasha opens up about her marriage, her divorce and the complicated truth that sometimes love isn’t enough. If you’ve ever walked away from something that looked perfect on paper… If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re asking for too much… If you’ve ever loved someone deeply but known it wasn’t right… This one’s for you.

    What To Expect In Season 2!

    ‘Why Do I…?’ is a podcast about the patterns we keep falling into in our relationships. The ones we do not always talk about. The ones we sometimes do not even notice. It explores where those behaviours come from, what they might be protecting, and what we could be avoiding when things start to feel uncomfortable. Each episode is a chance to sit with someone as they unpack the patterns they have recognised in themselves, and the ones they are still figuring out. There are no neat answers. No perfect endings. Just conversations and those quiet moments of recognition where you think, maybe that is me. 🎙️ New long-form episodes every fortnight 🧩 Short reflection episodes in between If you have ever caught yourself wondering why you show up the way you do in relationships, this is the show for you. Enjoy Season 2! #WhyDoI #RelationshipPatterns #SelfAwareness

    Confronting Relationship Misunderstandings - Tom's Tips #10

    In our final short-form episode of Season 1, we reflect on a powerful conversation with LaLaLaLetMeExplain about why men blame women. This episode hit hard - from defensiveness and traditional gender roles to subtle misogyny and emotional growth, we dove into the uncomfortable truths that many men (myself included) are still unlearning. The reflection episode is a reminder that blame keeps us stuck - but reflection can set us free. Lastly - I hope you all loved Season 1 as much as we did. Thank you so much for all the support, it truly means the world. Stay tuned, because Season 2 is going to be even bigger!
