Stop Watering Dead Flowers

Ever replayed a moment from ten years ago and still cringed? Welcome to Stop Watering Dead Flowers - the podcast for anyone haunted by their worst decisions, awkward encounters, and facepalm-worthy life chapters. Each week, we dive into the messy, hilarious, and painfully human stories we wish we could forget—and learn how to finally release the grip they have on us. Through comedic conversations, non-expert insights, and a whole lot of compassion, we’re rewriting the narrative on regret. It’s time to forgive yourself, laugh a little, and stop watering those dead flowers! With Chris Forbes.
