Why Can't We Be Friends?

Stop Wanting Him Back & Find Someone Better - A podcast by Claire Byrne

I am back for another conversation with my bestie Jamie McKeown, an incredible health and wellness coach. She has previously been on the podcast before to talk about what to eat on a broken heart and to answer your listener questions. In this episode, we talk about cutting off contact with your exes, which I think it’s safe to say, Jamie and I don’t agree on. She shares why she holds onto friendships with people she has previously dated, and I point out why I coach my clients on ending those friendships and why they don’t serve you if your goal is to find your person. In our conversation, we also touched on some of the topics that I cover in my upcoming course,  How to Stop Wanting Him Back and Find Someone Better. As of recording this episode, I am in LA shooting over 50 videos teaching you how to stop wanting Mr. or Ms. Wrong back and how to fall the fuck in love with you, authentically, before you call in someone better. The course launches this November.
