    Am I Addicted to Drama?! Dr. Scott Lyons + Healing Your Dependency on Crisis and Chaos

    Am I Addicted to Drama?! Dr. Scott Lyons + Healing Your Dependency on Crisis and Chaos

    This week, Dr. Scott Lyons joins Aurora to discuss what might seem like a fabricated issue but is, in fact, a severe and debilitating condition: an addiction to drama. Dr. Lyons shares his personal journey of overcoming this addiction, which manifests as a constant need for chaos and confusion in relationships. The two discuss how similar to other addictions, these behaviors are symptoms of a deeper void or a "God-sized hole," as Aurora describes it. Dr Lyons and Aurora discuss his book as it outlines a pathway to healing, helping individuals recognize and address their dependency on drama. Dr. Lyons also helps Aurora look at her own recent dating chaos, making her wonder if she's been seeking out drama and distraction instead of stable, healthy relationships.

    STDs, Scammers And Dating Etiquette On The Gram

    STDs, Scammers And Dating Etiquette On The Gram

    This episode, con artists re-emerge, but this time it’s a woman and Aurora is prepared. Is it a red flag of someone won’t follow you on Instagram? Does it say something about a person if they care about their following to followers ratio? Aurora talks about tricks for avoiding being scammed by telemarketers and an easy way to confirm if someone is legit or a hacker. STDs anyone? Odds are you or the person next to you has one or has had one, so lets take the shame away and talk candidly about it. Lastly, Aurora has replaced the gym with an electrocution suit of sorts. Never a dull moment!

I can’t wait for more!

I absolutely loved listening to these ladies talk. I will definitely miss Kristen’s perspective but excited to see where this podcast will go.

Gone down hill

Used to like this show more when first started….lately it’s been Aurora giving advice she is not qualified to give and rambling about her bad dating decisions. We’ve all been there gf but time to get it together. Also sick of hearing her and her sister diagnose guys with narcissism etc when again, they aren’t qualified and sound silly. Love the Culpo sisters but this podcast has ran its course.

Justice for Kristen

I keep trying to get into it but it’s really become too self help-y and a snooze.
