Breakups, Broken Hearts, and Moving On is a weekly podcast about healing broken hearts, building confidence, and moving forward in an empowered way. It is the perfect balance of science, spirituality, and sass. 

With a heavy dose of optimism, I share what I’ve learned from personal experience AND as a breakup coach to help you though this time. 

With over 200 episodes, it is more than a podcast, it is a resource library for people on any phase of their breakup healing journey.

Emotional vampires featuring Coach Daniel Ratner

Emotional vampires! We can all relate, right? I am chatting with someone who has been through it and helped people all over the country to navigate relationships (and ending them!) with people who drain our energy, suck us dry, take too much, and even ruin our lives. 

(Forgive me for being dramatic but it’s true!) 

Coach Daniel Ratner and I discuss: 

-Our experiences with emotional vampires

-Five different types 

-Taking a friend audit

-Tips for protecting ourselves

-Get away from draining people with the “K.E.E.P.E.R” strategy

-Narcissists

-The “socially awkward”

-Family members who drain us

-Tips for keeping yourself safe from people who drain you

-Taking a friend audit

-Family distancing
