#333 How to Break Free From Toxic Patterns with Dr. Adi Jaffe

from Heal Your Heartbreak

In today’s expert episode, I’m talking with Dr. Adi Jaffe, a nationally recognized expert on transformation and author of the book Unhooked. We dive deep into the connection between addiction and heartbreak, and how compulsive behaviors, whether they involve substances or patterns in love, keep us stuck after a breakup. Dr. Jaffe shares his personal story of overcoming addiction, explains concepts like the sphere of influence and fixed versus growth mindset, and offers practical tips for shifting your mindset and changing the behaviors that keep you feeling stuck. We also discuss common struggles after a breakup, like obsessing over things outside of our control and getting trapped in shame cycles, and how to use frameworks like SPARROW and self-compassion to move forward in healing. If you’re ready for actionable advice on how to heal your heart and break unhealthy cycles, this is the episode for you.To find out which Break Up Bestie Course is right for you, click the link to take the quiz and get matched with the best solution for you: https://tally.so/r/Y5Z6LNTo get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course To join Healing Hearts Club for FREE: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1021288124899873Start therapy with BetterHelp.
