🎧 DAY 18: How to Stop Waiting for Permission to Heal | UNSTUCK: 30 Days to Rewrite Your Love Story



🔥 EPISODE DESCRIPTION


You’re scrolling through self-help articles, polling your friends, and waiting for a sign that it’s "okay" to move on. "Am I over it yet? Is it too soon to date? What if I’m not ready?" Meanwhile, Aunt Linda’s screaming: "SWEAR OFF MEN FOREVER!"

Here’s your wake-up call: Healing isn’t a group project. In this liberating episode of UNSTUCK: 30 Days to Rewrite Your Love Story, host Christy Holt (your Professional Permission Slip Extender) torches the idea that you need anyone’s approval to heal.

Spoiler: Your timeline is the only one that matters.
