Closure Is a Lie: Kelsey Darragh on Heartbreak, Exes & Healing

from When Reality Hits with Brittany Cartwright

This week on When Reality Hits, Kelsey Darragh gets brutally honest about breakups, bad decisions, rebounds, exes, and all the things we do after heartbreak that we probably don’t want anyone to know about. Kelsey opens up about going back to an abusive ex, jumping into a rebound before she was actually healed, the most unhinged thing she’s ever done after a breakup, and what she learned about the science behind heartbreak. She also talks about her new book, Don’t Do What I Did: Break Up and Bounce Back, and how turning her most embarrassing relationship experiences into a breakup survival guide helped her find her power again.https://linktr.ee/kelseydarraghPlease support the show by checking out our sponsors!K12: See how K12 Powered Schools can help unlock your child’s full potential.
