Why Are You Even Like That?!

Megan Luscombe

Most of us are living lives we never actually chose. We inherited relationship structures, absorbed our parents’ values, mistook productivity for worth, and called it normal. Why Are You Even Like That?! pulls apart some of the most common ‘neutral’ choices to reveal the patterns underneath. Host Megan Luscombe (relationship coach & relational strategist of 14+ years) asks the questions most content avoids: What if monogamy isn’t for you? What if busyness is just avoidance? Each episode under 15 minutes. No fancy production, just pattern analysis that makes you look at yourself differently.

    Knowing, but NOT changing

    You’ve had the insight. You’ve had the moment of oh, that’s me. So why haven’t you changed? In today’s season finale, we’re pulling apart the gap between knowing and doing — and why staying stuck is sometimes the most logical thing your nervous system can do. 🎙️ Season 1 Finale IG @meganluscombe_ Website www.meganluscombe.com.au Substack @meganluscombe A huge thank you to everyone who’s listened to Season 1. Pulling these patterns apart out loud takes something, and so does listening. See you in Season 2!

    Touch Shy

    The gap isn’t the problem - it’s what we make the gap mean. In today’s episode we’re pulling apart why reinitiating (into sex) feels so loaded after a long pause, and why so much of what we’re calling “lost desire” is often just two people who don’t know how to find their (sexual) way back to each other yet.

    Jealous

    Jealousy isn’t the problem - what we do with it is. In today’s episode we’re pulling apart why we outsource our discomfort by controlling the people around us, and why so much of what we’re calling “boundaries” is actually just fear with better branding.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ IG @meganluscombe_ Website www.meganluscombe.com.au Substack @meganluscombe

    Undervaluing yourself (financially)

    In this episode we’re pulling apart undervaluing yourself financially. This isn’t about whether money is important or not - it’s about whether the number you put on your work actually reflects what you bring, or whether you’ve just been quietly hoping nobody notices you’ve been discounting yourself for years.

    Chasing “success”

    In this episode we’re pulling apart chasing success. This isn’t about whether ambition is healthy or destructive - it’s about whether the version of success you’re running toward is actually yours, or whether you inherited it from someone else and never stopped to check.

    Settling

    In this episode we’re pulling apart settling. This isn’t about whether your life needs to look a certain way - it’s about whether the things you’ve accepted are genuine contentment, or just what happens when you stopped believing something better was available to you.

    Forcing positivity

    In this episode we’re pulling apart forcing positivity. This isn’t about whether optimism is good or bad - it’s about whether the good vibes you’re projecting are actually how you feel, or just a really well-rehearsed way of not dealing with what’s underneath.

    Conflict avoidant

    In this episode we’re pulling apart conflict avoidance. This isn’t about whether healthy conflict is right or wrong - it’s about whether you’re actually having the conversations you need to have, or just swallowing everything down and calling it keeping the peace.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ IG @meganluscombe_ Website www.meganluscombe.com.au Substack @meganluscombe
