#65 He's Amazing. So Are You. Stop Acting Like He's Out of Your League.

Sunday, October 4, 2026 • Duration 11:39

A short one this week. A snappy one. A tough love bestie one.

Kelly was chatting to a client recently who is dating someone she describes as amazing. Incredible, actually. Smart, kind, successful, the works. & instead of being excited about it, she was terrified. Because she was convinced he was out of her league.

So Kelly has some things to say about that.

You'll hear:

✨ Why meeting someone amazing should feel exciting,not like a threat

✨ The difference between putting someone on a pedestal & genuinely feeling like you can't measure up

✨ Why that feeling of inadequacy almost always comes back to the same thing- self-worth

✨ The counterproductive cycle of people-pleasing & shrinking yourself from the very beginning & why it sets you up for exactly what you're trying to avoid

✨ Why only egotistical arseholes & narcissists actually want a partner who worships them 😂

✨ The sheet of paper exercise & why you'd call the person on it amazing until someone tells you it's you

✨ The most important question in dating & it's not "does he like me?"

✨ Why you can feel lucky & know you deserve it at the same time, both can coexist

✨ "If he's with you, he's choosing to be with you, so why do you think he's amazing but he can't make his own decisions?"

✨ Absa-f**king-lutely. Do I love myself? Yes. Do I think my partner is lucky to have me? Yes. Do I know I'm lucky to have him? Also yes. That's the goal 💚

He's amazing. And so are you. Get a grip ❤️‍🔥

#64 From Rock Bottom to Barbie Dream House; Thilinie's Breakup Recovery Story

Sunday, September 27, 2026 • Duration 56:26

This week Kelly is joined by a very special guest- Thilinie, a past client of the Breakup Empowerment Programme, who has very generously agreed to come on & share her story.

Six months ago, Thilinie was navigating one of the hardest periods of her life. She had lost her dad in January. Her "situationship" of almost two years ended over the phone on St. Patrick's Day with no explanation. She moved into a brand new house alone, an hour away from everyone she knew, in an area she had never lived in before, knowing nobody except her ex. And she was meant to be exchanging on that house the very next day.

Today? She calls it her Barbie dream house ❤️‍🔥

You'll hear:

✨ Thilinie's full story; loss, a situationship ending, moving alone & starting completely from scratch

✨ What she was hoping coaching would give her & what it actually gave her that she didn't expect

✨ The limiting belief she had carried since childhood that she didn't even know was a limiting belief until they worked on it together

✨ How she went from T, the version of herself that threw everything into relationships & lost who she was- to Thilinie ❤️‍🔥

✨ The anxious preoccupied attachment style she thought she already understood & what actually helped her change it

✨ Why knowing your attachment style isn't enough & what the missing piece actually is

✨ What her non-negotiables list looked like when she started & how Kelly very kindly told her that most of them were actually just bare minimum 😂

✨ How dating feels completely different now & the very telling detail that she no longer scrolls back through old messages looking for validation

✨ Four coats of paint, a wardrobe room & a painter she is dating who was absolutely not allowed to touch a single wall 😂

✨ Why time does not heal & what actually does

#63 Help, I Got Back With My Ex- A Breakup Coach's Honest Take

Sunday, September 20, 2026 • Duration 21:43

Yes, Kelly is a Breakup Empowerment Coach & no, she is not automatically against you getting back with your ex. This week she's saying what she actually thinks & it might surprise you.

Two clients recently told her they'd gotten back with their ex. She was happy for both of them. Here's why- & here's what needs to be true for it to be a good decision.

You'll hear:

✨ Why Kelly is not against getting back with your ex & what actually determines whether it's the right call

✨ The two clients who got back with their exes & why Kelly responded the way she did

✨ Why hoping you'll reconcile is a completely normal part of a breakup & when that hope eventually goes away

✨ The wrong reasons to go back: loneliness, fear, scarcity, ego, obligation. None of these are reasons

✨ The right reasons to go back & what making that decision from a place of security actually looks like

✨ Why you need to be okay on your own before you can go back & how you know you're there

✨ What needs to be different this time- the non-negotiables, the changes, the work

✨ Why the people in your life who are against it deserve to be heard- when to listen to them & when to make your own decision

✨ The "keep going back until you hate him" trend & why Kelly can't get behind it

✨ Disney is Disney. Real life is real life... &they are not the same thing 😂

Whatever you decide, Kelly is rooting for your happy ever after. Whether that's with him, with someone new or just with yourself💚

#62 What Actually Helped Me Get Over My Breakups; My Real & Honest List

Sunday, September 13, 2026 • Duration 28:40

This week Kelly is getting personal- & practical!

No frameworks, no science, no guest. Just Kelly, her matcha & an honest run through of the actual things that helped her get over her breakups & her exes. The real ones. The ones she still swears by.

Some of them are basic. Most of them are basic. And that's kind of the point because the basics work! And when you're in the middle of heartbreak, sometimes you just need someone to remind you of that.

You'll hear:

✨ Why no contact is still the single most important thing you can do & how Kelly implemented it even when it was killing her not to reach out

✨ The dinner photo she almost sent him & why you will always find the most ridiculous excuses to reach out

✨ Muting all his friends on Instagram & the one she didn't mute, which later came back to bite her in a very spectacular fashion

✨ Why a daily walk was her non-negotiable & how it helped her in ways she didn't even realise at the time

✨ The therapy she was already in & why going to therapy before a crisis hits is one of the smartest things you can do

✨ Leaning on her people; who she called, who she spent time with & why good company is genuinely one of the best medicines

✨ Getting out of the house & not sitting with it alone all day

✨ Why she didn't go on the apps straight away & what the apps actually give you vs. what they don't

✨ Making a new vision board & why shifting your focus back to yourself is everything

✨ Not going through old photos and messages; why it's a form of self-torture & what to do instead

✨ Journaling & why having a safe space for your thoughts matters more than you think

#59 The Fear of Falling in Love Again After a Breakup

Sunday, August 23, 2026 • Duration 17:37

You've done some healing. Time has passed. And now you're starting to think about the future, about maybe meeting someone again, opening up, falling in love.

& then that thought arrives. What if it doesn't work out either?

What if you go through all of that again, the trust, the vulnerability, the plans, the investment & you end up right back here, heartbroken all over again?

This week Kelly is talking about that fear. The one that doesn't get spoken about enough. The one she cried about in a women's circle a few months after her own breakup. & the one she knows thousands of people are carrying too.

You'll hear:

✨ The memory that prompted this episode, Kelly opening up in a women's circle about her fear of putting herself out there again & the girl across the circle who said she felt it too

✨ Why this fear makes complete, primitive, neurological sense & the iron plate analogy that explains it perfectly

✨ The difference between staying single because you genuinely want to and staying single because you're scared- & why only one of those is okay

✨ Why the goal is not to stop the fear, it's to feel it & do it anyway

✨ The one thing that will actually help you overcome it & it has nothing to do with finding the right person

✨ Why Kelly's second breakup was worse than her divorce, but why she recovered from it faster

✨ The foundation concept- what it is, how to build it & why it means that if things go wrong again, you won't be starting from zero

✨ The role of vulnerability in new relationships & how Kelly had to consciously push herself to be open again after her marriage ended

✨ Why love is still worth it- even knowing the risk

#58 Why You Stayed in a Relationship That Wasn't Good For You & Why You Need to Stop Blaming Yourself

Sunday, August 16, 2026 • Duration 14:49

Why did I stay so long? Why did I let it go that far? I should have seen it sooner. I should have left sooner.

If you've ever said any of those things to yourself, this episode is for you.

This week, prompted by a listener question, Kelly is tackling one of the most common things that comes up with her clients, the shame of staying. Why we do it, why it makes complete sense, & why you need to stop kicking yourself for it right now.

You'll hear:

✨ Why staying in a relationship you know isn't right for you doesn't make you weak or stupid, it makes you human

✨ Why you can see your friend's situation clearly but can't see your own & the emotional investment that explains it

✨ The real reasons women stay; anxious attachment, low self-worth, sunk cost, biological clock, fear of being alone & the one that catches almost everyone: potential

✨ Why being a fixer & seeing potential in someone is one of the most common reasons women stay far longer than they should

✨ The difference between a hard relationship worth working on & one where you're the only one doing the work

✨ The compassion tool; how to treat yourself the way you'd treat your best friend if she came to you with this exact story

✨ What to do if you have a friend who you can see should leave & why telling her to leave is probably making things worse

✨ How to actually help her instead

You loved him. What else were you supposed to do? Stop carrying the shame of staying. You're out now & that's all that matters 💚

#57 When Your Partner Lies About Drugs- Lying, Betrayal & Social Pressure

Sunday, August 9, 2026 • Duration 36:09

⚠️ Trigger warning: this episode discusses drug use, lies & betrayal in relationships. If this is a sensitive topic for you, please take care of yourself first.

A first for The Breakup Debrief & a deeply personal one.

This week Kelly is talking about something that shaped a huge part of her own relationships & marriage, and something that has come up recently with a client- drug use, lying & the very specific kind of betrayal that comes when a partner hides a habit they know you don't want in your relationship.

No judgment here for anyone who uses drugs. This episode is not about that. This is about the lying. The hiding. The gaslighting. And the way being made to feel like the controlling one can make you question your own completely reasonable boundaries.

You'll hear:

✨ Kelly's own experience with drug use & lying in her ten-year relationship &marriage- and how it became less about the weed & more about the betrayal

✨ How an entire friend group was recruited to keep a secret & how the situation was framed to make Kelly look controlling rather than lied to

✨ The moment that changed everything & led to couples counselling before the wedding

✨ Why "I didn't tell you because I didn't want to upset you" is not protection, it's manipulation

✨ How hiding something until feelings are involved & it's harder to leave is also a form of manipulation- even when it's not conscious

✨ Why your boundaries around drug use are completely valid & you don't have to justify them to anyone

✨ The difference between the drugs & the lying and why you're entitled to treat them as two completely separate issues

✨ The murder analogy that will make complete sense when you hear it 😂

✨ Why if your partner doesn't want to be in a relationship with someone who does drugs, that is their decision to make- full stop

#56 Holding a Grudge Against Your Ex Is Only Hurting You- Time to Let It Go

Sunday, August 2, 2026 • Duration 14:05

You might hate Kelly a little during this episode, she's prepared for that, but she needs you to hear her out.

This week Kelly is talking about the grudge. The anger you're still carrying. The flash of rage when someone mentions his name. The replaying, the revisiting, the weight of it all.

And the uncomfortable truth, he's not lying awake at night thinking about how angry you are. He's just living his life & the only person carrying all of that weight is you.

You'll hear:

✨ Why holding a grudge feels like you're doing something but is actually only draining you

✨ The real reason we hold onto anger after a breakup & why it makes sense

✨ Why the grudge can feel like justice, like significance, like not letting him away with it but why none of that is actually going where you think it is

✨ The big word that makes everyone uncomfortable- "forgiveness" and what Kelly actually means by it

✨ Why forgiving him does not mean what he did was okay, that he deserves it or that he gets access to you again

✨ His access to you and your forgiveness are two completely different things & they don't need to touch each other

✨ Kelly's own experience letting go of the anger towards her ex-husband & the person in her life who couldn't understand it

✨ Why forgiveness is one of the final stages of healing, not something to rush to or skip ahead to

✨ What to do if you're still neck-deep in the anger & why that's completely okay too

He's not losing sleep over your grudge but you might be & you deserve that energy back💚
