After months of replaying my relationship in my head, I started asking myself a question I hadn't considered before:

Was I love bombed?

In this episode, I unpack what love bombing actually is, the signs that made me question my own experience, and why it's so difficult to tell the difference between genuine excitement and unhealthy intensity. I reflect on the early stages of my relationship, the promises that were made, and why some people leave us chasing the version of them we met at the beginning.

Whether you've questioned a past relationship or you're trying to recognize the signs in a new one, this episode is an honest conversation about love, attachment, red flags, and the importance of looking back with clarity instead of blame.

Sometimes healing isn't about changing the past—it's about finally understanding it.

Why do some people stay in our minds long after they've left our lives?

In this episode, I reflect on a recent moment that sent me spiraling after seeing a new photo of my ex—and the realization that followed. After months of processing, grieving, and trying to understand what happened, I started asking myself a different question: what am I still holding onto?

I talk about the fear of letting go, the comfort we sometimes find in familiar pain, and why moving on can feel scarier than staying attached to the story. I also explore the idea that some people stay in our heads not because they're meant for us, but because they touched something deeper within us.

Maybe healing isn't just about understanding what happened.

Maybe it's about deciding you don't need to carry it anymore.

What does it actually mean to be feminine?

After watching a conversation on Love Island USA, I started thinking about how differently women experience femininity. Some of us are taught to be tough. Some of us wish we were softer. Some feel too emotional, while others struggle to express emotion at all.

In this episode, I explore the many ways women relate to femininity, vulnerability, strength, confidence, and identity. I talk about why so many women feel like they're somehow "doing womanhood wrong," and whether femininity is something we perform or something we define for ourselves.

Maybe there's no single way to be feminine. Maybe being a woman is a lot more expansive than we've been taught to believe.
