This week, Sarah and I dive into the latest on GLP-1s and why women seem to have a different experience with them than men (spoiler: hormones, age, and maybe how you jab yourself). We talk about what’s not being said — like how losing weight doesn’t always come with a confidence boost. Personally, I’ve become a little self-conscious about how much weight I’ve lost in my face. There’s this weird disconnect between how I feel and how I think I’m supposed to feel.

We also talk about healing — real healing. The kind that’s messy and nonlinear. I’ve had moments where I thought I was “over” something, only to revisit it and feel that intense reaction all over again. But that’s not regression; that’s revisiting the pain with more awareness. And sometimes that’s the most powerful kind of progress there is.

I also share how I’ve been getting my ADHD chaos under control — or at least trying to. I’m journaling more, using a planner (shocking, I know), and sticking to a to-do list that doesn’t instantly get buried under ten tabs and a pile of dog hair. These tools have helped me process some really tough emotions, especially after losing Sam. It’s been less about “getting back on track” and more about creating structure that actually supports me.

If you’ve ever felt emotionally scrambled while also trying to get your life together, this one’s for you.

This week, we’re diving into dating patterns, gut instincts, and the uncomfortable truth that sometimes… it’s your trauma playing matchmaker. We break down a listener letter from someone who thought she finally found a unicorn — until he bailed out of nowhere. Was it anxiety? Or was her intuition picking up on something real?

We talk about the difference between anxiety and intuition, why emotionally available partners can feel “off,” and how repetition compulsion makes you chase familiar pain — not because you’re broken, but because your brain is trying to fix the past. Spoiler: it never works.

Plus: Fuck That Guy Summerfest continues with a sweaty mustache bro who’s out here raw-dogging the sidewalk with bad boundaries, peak audacity, and zero self-awareness.

We get into:

• Trauma as a matchmaker

• Repetition compulsion in dating

• Anxiety vs. intuition — how to tell the difference

• Ghosting, self-trust, and breaking the cycle

This week on F*ck That Guy Palooza 🎉

We’re serving up a buffet of walking red flags and emotional immaturity—bring your appetite. First course: a man who’s clearly past his dating app expiration date but still insists he’s entitled to a woman “out of his league” (whatever that means). Next up, a guy who treats his date’s romantic past like it’s a crime scene and somehow thinks he deserves answers. And finally, a man drooling over the idea of a threesome—as long as it’s emotionally convenient and doesn’t threaten his fragile ego.

Then, we pivot to something that truly touched us: a beautiful message from a longtime listener who credits this podcast with helping her leave a toxic relationship and choose herself. Spoiler: it ends in love, green flags, and a baby. Yes, we cried. Yes, you might too.
