Why is it that you’re thriving in every area of your life—except love?
In this eye-opening episode of Relationship Rescue, Valery sits down with renowned psychologist, author, and relationship expert Dr. Wendy Walsh to explore the real reason so many high-achieving men and women in their 30s feel stuck in modern dating.
We get into it all—emotional unavailability, attachment styles, situationships, and why dating apps have completely rewired how we connect. Dr. Wendy breaks down the biology behind attraction, the myths about monogamy, and how to finally create emotional safety before getting serious with someone.
If you’re craving a relationship that’s grounded, emotionally healthy, and built to last—this episode will change the way you date.
What You’ll Learn:
Why “doing everything right” doesn’t always lead to love
How to spot emotional unavailability (even when it looks like effort)
What the slow-burn vs. situationship debate is really about
How social media is shifting emotional safety in relationships
The first step to rebuilding after a breakup or divorce
