Pressed on the Past

Ever felt judged for something you did years ago? In this episode, I'm diving deep into retroactive jealousy: why it happens, when it’s fair (and when it’s not), and how to deal with people who can’t let go of your past. I talk body count, male friendships, party girl narratives, and more. I’ll touch on the hardships of modern dating and how our gender dating roles are culturally shifting. Plus, I get into how weed was messing with my mindset and what’s helped me take back control. I’ll also tackle a listener’s DM about whether or not her past makes her undateable. Let’s get real about rejection, values, and how to stop shrinking yourself just to be loved.
