Around this time of year, people begin to evaluate their life choices and circumstances. Relationships are no different. It’s a great to reflect on what is working well, what isn’t, and maybe even what is no longer worth pursuing. In fact, many people find themselves in break-ups, separation, and divorce on the tail-end of the holidays.

My guest today, Licensed Therapist, John Kim, joins me to talk about the different types of break-ups and breakdowns that occur in romantic relationships. But we also talk about common themes you see in ending relationships (and, how to avoid them), the differences between healthy and unhealthy love, how ruptures in a relationship can lead to some of the biggest relational breakthroughs, how to communicate what you need without coming across needy, obnoxious, or over-bearing, and so much more.
