🎧 Episode 2: Why Heartbreak Happens (And what it’s REALLY about)

What’s in today’s episode: Today we’re going deeper. We’re talking about why heartbreak really happens — and spoiler alert: it’s not just about someone letting you down. It’s about the expectations you had… the ones you may not have even realized were there. I’m sharing how unmet expectations shaped some of my deepest heartbreaks — and how understanding that changed the way I view love, loss, and even myself.

Why it matters: You can’t heal what you haven’t named. When you understand that heartbreak is often rooted in hope, dreams, and silent expectations, you stop blaming yourself — and start giving yourself permission to heal from what didn’t happen, not just what did.

How this helps you bounce back: This episode will help you reframe your past and reclaim your power. You’ll learn how to recognize the silent scripts you’ve been carrying and how to rewrite them with intention, faith, and truth. Because once you see your expectations clearly, you can start loving yourself more gently — and stop carrying pain that was never yours to keep.
