#256 What To Do When You Get Dumped with Suzy and Hallie
In this episode of Heal Your Heartbreak, I sit down with Suzy Hopkins and Hallie Bateman, marking the first time we've had a mother-daughter duo on the show. They join me to discuss their newly released book, "What to Do When You Get Dumped: A Guide to Unbreaking Your Heart." Suzy shares her personal journey of healing after the sudden end to her 30-year marriage, and how it inspired this candid exploration of the messy, unpredictable, and often lengthy path to recovery after a breakup. Throughout our conversation, Suzy and Hallie provide insights into how writing served as a therapeutic tool for processing grief, the concept of the "muddle" during a breakup's aftermath, and the importance of embracing both the messiness and the small steps that lead to healing. We delve into themes of shame and self-compassion, and they share pivotal moments that marked their journey towards new beginnings. Join us as we explore the profound and relatable aspects of heartache and the resilience required to emerge stronger on the other side.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://breakupbestie.typeform.com/to/x0WglwDOTo get my course bundle Heal Your Break Up, go to https://www.breakupbestie.com/heal-your-break-up-course and use the code PODCAST for $25 off!To learn about all of my courses: https://www.breakupbestie.com/coursesTo join Healing Hearts Club for FREE: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1021288124899873Get a copy of The Breakup Workbook here!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
