Why are we so afraid to voice our standards and speak our truth? In this episode, Srna and Jackie tackle this question and so much more.
The discussion begins with a fan's DM about a four-year relationship that came to an end due to distance and the loss of love. Jackie dismisses distance as an excuse, and Srna explains why the breakup wasn't a reflection on her.
The convo continues as emailer #2 shares a love-bombing experience that ended in complete ghosting. How could someone go from being head over heels to not talking to you at all? Should she reach out? The girls discuss.
To wrap it up, Jackie spills a few things on her "ideal partner" list, and Srna shares a very important reminder — YOU ARE THE MAIN CHARACTER OF YOUR OWN LIFE.
