Break ups: how to be single again, heal from heartbreak and build a new life no one can take away

Break ups: how to be single again, heal from heartbreak and build a new life no one can take away

Getting over a breakup is one of the most painful things you'll go through. The standard advice: go no contact, keep busy, time heals all wounds; often isn't enough. This episode gives you what actually works.


Dorothy Johnson, breakup coach and host of How to Get Over Your Ex, joins Bree to talk about how to truly heal from a breakup and build a life so full that no one - not your ex, not a situationship, not a love bomb - can take it from you.


Whether your breakup was yesterday or two years ago and you're still not over it, whether you're stuck repeating the same relationship patterns, or whether you keep attracting emotionally unavailable people after every attempt to move on, this episode gives you a real path forward.


Bree also brings her own experience: the relationships she has navigated as a solo female traveller living abroad alone, the patterns she recognised in herself, and what finally changed.


In this episode you'll learn:

• Why no-contact and other standard breakup rules don't always work and what does

• How to stop obsessing over your ex and redirect that energy into your own life

• Why you keep attracting emotionally unavailable people after a breakup and how to break the pattern

• The real reason it feels impossible to move on and the mindset shift that changes everything

• How to build a life after a breakup that's bigger, fuller and better than before

• Why newly single women get stuck in grief that goes beyond missing one person

• What to do when you're dating after a breakup and keep repeating the same patterns


This episode mentions miscarriage.


Bree is in Mumbai, India and has MASSIVE BOY NEWS!!!
