Garbage People Do Garbage Things (feat. Brianna Diorio)

Why do we stay in toxic relationships even when we know better? On this episode of Don’t Let It Su, Chef Stu is joined by Dr. Brianna Diorio, life coach and neuroscience expert, to break down the real psychological reasons we cling to unhealthy relationships, chase closure, and ignore red flags. They unpack why your brain prefers familiar chaos over peace, how ego and loss aversion keep you stuck, and why “hope” might actually be your biggest enemy. Plus, they dive into Bravo psychology, RHONJ dynamics, narcissism myths, and why accountability is the ultimate glow-up. This is tough love, Jersey-style — science-backed, funny, and painfully relatable.
