Expect unfiltered laughs, honest confessions, and a few outrageous stories featuring love-bombers, glow-ups, and the occasional micropenis.If you have ever been left questioning your worth, this one is for you. Because as Sophie proves, every heartbreak is just a plot twist in your glow-up era, and sometimes losing him is how you find yourself. 💔✨ Hosted on Acast.

What kind of friend are you when your bestie’s heart breaks? The fixer, the listener, or the one showing up with wine and a bad playlist?This week, Yaz and Ilmz unpack what being a really good friend after a breakup looks like because supporting someone through heartbreak isn’t as simple as sending a check-in text. They talk emotional first aid, reading the room before giving advice, and why sometimes sitting in silence says more than the perfect pep talk.From hyping her up on the hard days to helping her find her spark again (and yes, knowing when it’s time to throw the block party), this episode is your go-to guide for friendship in the heartbreak era.Whether your bestie’s going through it or you are, this one’s for you. Because healing doesn’t just happen alone. Sometimes, it takes a friend who knows when to show up, shut up, and pour the prosecco. 🥂 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What if the closure you’re waiting for isn’t theirs to give?This week, we sit down with Ashleigh Berry from Love Is Blind UK Season 2 for a raw and honest chat about heartbreak in the spotlight, healing in private, and the quiet courage it takes to choose yourself after a very public “no.”Ashleigh opens up about her journey with Billy, the man she married in the experiment, and what it was really like to relive their breakup on national TV. She shares how anniversaries can live in your body, the grounding rituals that kept her steady when the internet had opinions about her life, and what choosing peace over performance really looks like.We dive into balancing a career you love with the pressure to compromise, the fine line between flexibility and losing yourself, and what real partnership means when both people are still growing.Ashleigh also shares her favourite healing tool: voice-note check-ins — an easy but powerful way to hear your own growth in real time (and honestly, way less effort than journaling).If you’re going through heartbreak, figuring out long-distance love, or learning how to protect your peace while staying ambitious, this one’s for you. We talk boundaries, real communication, and why saying “no” is one of the kindest things you can do — for you.Press play, take what you need, and remember: closure isn’t always a conversation. Sometimes, it’s a decision. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

One year later… and we are NOT the same girls 💔✨. When we launched The Break-Up Diet, Yaz was in a relationship and Ilmz was caught up in a situationship. Fast forward 365 days, we’ve faced heartbreaks, career shake-ups, and glow-up moments we never saw coming. We barely recognise the girls who pressed record a year ago.The biggest lesson? Trust your gut. That little voice telling you something isn’t right is always spot on. Ignoring it kept us stuck but listening has been a total game-changer.In this anniversary episode, we’re spilling what breakups REALLY taught us (spoiler: it’s not what you think 🍵). From crying in bed to living our hot girl era, from losing relationships to finding ourselves, this year has been messy, chaotic, and transformative in all the best ways.Grab a drink, because the tea is hot, the lessons are real, and the glow-up is just getting started 🍷✨.

So your heart’s been smashed and the thought of sex feels… impossible? We’ve been there. But what if getting back in touch with your pleasure was the key to actually healing? In this episode of The Break Up Diet, we’re joined by Lovehoney's sexologist and founder of Good Vibes Clinic, Christine Rafe, for our spiciest chat yet and trust us, it’s the post-breakup pep talk you didn’t know you needed.Christine gets real about why we slide back into toxic “Dick Sand” with our exes, how to spot if you’re chasing a rebound for the wrong reasons, and why your body feeling foreign after heartbreak is totally normal (and temporary). She shares her step-by-step tips for rediscovering your sensuality, starting with little non-sexual pleasures — sunshine, laughter, friendship — before graduating to self-exploration, confidence-building, and yes… the toys that can change the game. 👀We also dive into the messy psychology of attachment, how to actually set boundaries around trust and cheating (spoiler: everyone defines it differently), and why single, child-free women just might be the happiest demographic of all. Whether you’re fresh out of a breakup, questioning your worth, or just curious about how to build the best sex life on your own terms, this conversation will make you laugh, squirm, and maybe even order a new toy by the end.Heartbreak hurts — but your sexy is waiting to be stolen back.

Healing after heartbreak isn't just about surviving—it's about creating boundaries that protect your peace and rediscovering who you are beyond the relationship that ended. When we asked what content you wanted more of, the answer was clear: our Do's and Don'ts episodes resonated deeply. So we're back with fresh insights on the habits that help you heal versus those that keep you stuck in emotional limbo.First, let's talk about digital self-sabotage. Those late-night scrolling sessions through old texts searching for hidden meanings? They're not serving you. Neither is that secret folder of photos you're keeping "just because you look cute" in them. We candidly share our own post-breakup mistakes from searching conversations for specific words to monitoring story views from fake accounts—and how these behaviours only prolong your pain.You know the drill: it’s 1am, you’re deep in the camera roll, zooming in on old screenshots like they hold the answers to life’s mysteries. Or maybe you’ve become a pro at refreshing your ex’s stories from a fake account (don’t worry, we’ve been there too 🙋‍♀️).But here’s the truth — those late-night stalk sessions and “just one more scroll” moments aren’t helping you heal. In this episode, we’re breaking down the real Do’s and Don’ts of moving on: from why saving those “cute” couple pics is secretly sabotaging you, to how comparison traps keep you stuck, and why trying to be the “cool, unbothered ex” actually slows down your recovery.We’ll share our own messy mistakes (yes, even the cringe-worthy ones) and give you the strategies that actually work: reward systems for no-contact, simple shifts that help you reclaim your space, and how to romanticise your single life instead of reliving the past.Because healing isn’t about faking it till you make it — it’s about protecting your peace, setting boundaries, and filling your own life with joy again.So grab your headphones, block that number (seriously), and let’s get into it. 💌 Hosted on Acast.

Maria Benkharmaz from Love Is Blind UK is here and she is NOT holding back. We get into everything — why she refuses to settle, how she deals with people judging her dating preferences, and the one question she asks herself when a guy’s behaviour feels off: “If you had a daughter, would you want her to put up with this?” (Spoiler: the answer is usually no).Maria spills on what it was really like filming Love Is Blind, the moments you didn’t see on screen, and the pressure to shrink yourself to make other people comfortable. She shares how she’s built unshakeable confidence, even when thousands of strangers had opinions about her love life, and why walking away from the wrong person is actually the biggest flex.We also get into modern dating culture, why everyone’s waiting for the “next best thing,” and why there’s literally no expiration date on finding your person (Maria’s sister met her perfect match at 34). If you’ve ever been told your standards are “too high,” this is your reminder to keep them exactly where they are — and maybe even raise them.Send us a textInstagram: @thebreakupdietpod TikTok: @thebreakupdietpodEmail: thebreakupdietpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Have you ever noticed your body reacting strangely during a relationship that wasn't quite right? Those mysterious health issues might not be coincidental.We dive into the fascinating ways our bodies communicate relationship incompatibility before our minds catch up. From stress rashes and digestive problems to hair loss and constant illness, these physical reactions are powerful signals worth paying attention to. Most intriguingly, these symptoms often vanish immediately after a breakup, leading to the well-documented "post-breakup glow" that friends notice before you do.Your nervous system knows the score. That constant state of fight-or-flight, feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks, and persistent anxiety might be your body's way of saying something isn't right. We explore how to distinguish between normal health fluctuations and genuine relationship warning signs, and why patterns matter more than isolated incidents.Dreams also offer fascinating insights into relationship struggles. Those vivid, sometimes bizarre scenarios might be your subconscious processing emotional truths you haven't yet acknowledged while awake. By learning to interpret these physical and mental signals, you gain valuable information about your relationship's health.While nobody should end a relationship based solely on physical symptoms, these signs should absolutely factor into your broader assessment of compatibility. Being honest with yourself about what your body is telling you might lead to difficult decisions, but prioritizing your wellbeing is never wrong. And remember - sometimes taking that brave step to end an unhealthy relationship can lead to unexpected healing, growth, and even reconnection from a healthier place down the road.Send us a textInstagram: @thebreakupdietpod TikTok: @thebreakupdietpodEmail: thebreakupdietpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Breakups hurt—there’s no way around it. But what if that pain is actually the catalyst for your biggest glow-up yet?In this raw and eye-opening episode, co-hosts Yaz and Ilmz sit down with breakup coach Lydia Mae, who shares the kind of real, no-BS advice that flips everything you thought you knew about heartbreak on its head. When Yaz opens up about still struggling to move on, Lydia offers a powerful reframe: those messy, tear-filled moments? They’re not setbacks—they’re your healing in motion.One of the most surprising takeaways? Lydia’s insight into how men experience heartbreak. Spoiler: it’s not the emotionless, move-on-quickly stereotype we’ve all been fed. With nearly half her clients being male, Lydia shines a compassionate light on the silent struggles many guys face post-breakup.This conversation dives deep into practical tools for recovery—from creating a “relationship reality check” list to break the cycle of romanticizing, to the unexpected power of dancing alone as nervous system regulation. Lydia even opens up about her own breakthrough with Reiki healing, showing just how deeply our bodies store emotional pain.Still checking their Instagram every five minutes? Lydia’s got you. Her take on blocking is one of the most freeing analogies we’ve ever heard: “It’s like peeling off the plaster every five minutes to see if the wound’s healed.”Whether you're freshly heartbroken or still carrying ghosts of relationships past, this episode delivers comfort, clarity, and real tools to help you move forward.As Lydia so perfectly puts it, “The hardest chapters, like a breakup, can often be followed by the most beautiful ones.”Ready to turn the page?Send us a textInstagram: @thebreakupdietpod TikTok: @thebreakupdietpodEmail: thebreakupdietpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Ever caught yourself cringing at a text delay, a privacy screen, or yet another 3-minute voice note? 👀 In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the world of red flags, pink flags, and the infamous ick — decoding what they actually mean, and why your gut might be trying to tell you something.We’re breaking down the difference between serious deal-breakers and petty turn-offs, exposing shady phone habits, and unpacking that weirdly common line: “You’re not like other girls” (ick, red flag, AND misogyny all in one?).Plus, we’re asking: Is refusing therapy a red flag now? Are icks just your intuition saying “girl, run”? And why do modern relationships feel like we’re dating toddlers compared to our mums’ generation?If you've ever second-guessed yourself after getting the ick or debated whether you're being too harsh, this one’s for you.👉 Tap play, trust your gut, and follow The Break Up Diet — because some flags are waving for a reason.Send us a textInstagram: @thebreakupdietpod TikTok: @thebreakupdietpodEmail: thebreakupdietpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Ever found yourself obsessively checking your ex's "last seen" status at 2 AM or tracking their location through an app they forgot to disable? You're not alone. Breaking up in the digital age brings a whole new dimension to heartbreak, and we're diving headfirst into all the messy, embarrassing, and counterproductive mistakes we make during this vulnerable time.From stalking social media accounts to overanalyzing past conversations, we candidly share our own cringe-worthy post-breakup behaviours and why they're so hard to stop. We explore the psychology behind these patterns and discuss why the first month after a breakup is typically the hardest – with each week bringing its own unique challenges before healing truly begins.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we examine how differently men and women tend to process breakups. Why do men seemingly move on faster? Is it emotional suppression or something else entirely? And what does modern dating in a global city like London look like when everyone has endless options at their fingertips? We don't hold back in discussing how dating apps have created a disposable dating culture where genuine connection feels increasingly rare.Perhaps most importantly, we advocate for maintaining high standards rather than settling for convenience. From social media behaviour that signals disrespect to the importance of finding someone who genuinely adds value to your life – we're passionate about the belief that true love shouldn't constantly feel like hard work. If you're navigating a breakup or trying to figure out what healthy love should look like, this raw conversation offers both solidarity and hope.Subscribe to The Breakup Diet for weekly episodes that combine humour, vulnerability, and practical insights.

There's something magical about going through a breakup just before summer. The sun shines brighter, days stretch longer, and suddenly you have this incredible opportunity to rediscover yourself without the shadows of winter making everything feel heavier than it already is.This episode dives into why summer breakups might actually be a blessing in disguise. We explore the stark contrast between healing during warmer months versus the challenging darkness of winter breakups, when family holiday gatherings and early sunsets can make loneliness feel inescapable. The physiological benefits of sunshine – including natural boosts to serotonin and dopamine – create an environment where healing happens more naturally.Financial independence becomes a crucial focal point of our conversation as we discuss the dangerous power imbalances that can form when one partner controls the finances. While social media often romanticizes arrangements where expenses are covered by a partner, we unpeel the layers of potential emotional manipulation that can lurk beneath the surface of such setups. The journey back to financial self-sufficiency after being accustomed to sharing expenses can be jarring, but ultimately liberating.We share personal experiences about reclaiming time and space when you're no longer committing hours to commuting for a relationship. Without the constraints of coordinating with a partner, summer offers endless possibilities for spontaneous adventures, connecting with friends, and most importantly, reconnecting with yourself. The freedom to be selective about how you spend your precious time becomes one of the unexpected gifts of single life.Healing isn't linear, and we emphasize that you don't need to have everything figured out immediately. You can simultaneously miss aspects of your relationship while recognizing it wasn't right for you. This complexity is normal – embracing it rather than fighting against it leads to authentic healing. So grab your sunscreen, call your friends, and embrace the summer as a period of joyful rediscovery. The worst is already behind you, and the sunshine is waiting to work its magic.Send us a textInstagram: @thebreakupdietpod TikTok: @thebreakupdietpodEmail: thebreakupdietpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

What happens when the baddie facade breaks down? Singer-songwriter Talia Storm joins us for a disarmingly honest conversation about the gap between her public persona and private desires. Known for her empowering anthems and unapologetic attitude, Talia reveals the vulnerable reality behind her confident image—she's actually yearning for genuine connection."I talk a big game," Talia admits, "but when I actually like someone, that wall of intimidation just shatters." This confession sparks a fascinating exploration of why so many of us hide our true desires behind carefully constructed personas. Having experienced her first serious relationship at 22 after prioritizing her career from age 13, Talia's journey mirrors many ambitious women who delay romantic development only to find themselves emotionally unprepared when heartbreak eventually arrives.The episode delves into the contradictions of modern dating culture, where appearing invested is considered weakness and detachment is rewarded—particularly on social media. "The price you're paying to be viral is expensed by you not having human experience anymore," Talia observes, highlighting how performative relationships have trained a generation to value perception over substance. Her "Baddie Academy" tips provide practical wisdom for maintaining confidence while gradually allowing vulnerability, striking that delicate balance between strength and openness.Perhaps most refreshing is Talia's call for normalizing emotional investment: "It's cool to care, it's cool to try." This simple yet radical statement challenges years of cultural conditioning that equates caring deeply with weakness. Her upcoming single "Ready for Love" represents this evolution, embracing vulnerability rather than running from it. As she puts it, "Nonchalant is dead"—signaling a cultural shift toward valuing genuine connection over strategic indifference.Ready to stop pretending you don't care?

Ever wondered if your post-breakup behavior is normal or completely unhinged? This episode of The Breakup Diet might make you feel seen in ways you weren't expecting.We dive into the hilarious yet painfully relatable game of "Breakup Bingo" – checking off all the questionable things we do when relationships end. From the three-day crying marathons (where does all that liquid come from when you're not even drinking water?) to pretending to be over your ex while secretly stalking their social media, we're confessing it all.The discussion gets refreshingly honest as we explore why the "fake it till you make it" approach to heartbreak might actually be psychologically beneficial. We share stories about post-breakup fitness transformations, orchestrating "accidental" bump-ins with exes, and using dating apps purely for validation rather than genuine connection. That moment when you block your ex only to unblock them hours later? Apparently, we've all been there.What makes this conversation special is the balance between humor and genuine reflection on why we engage in these behaviors. Whether it's trying to boost your ego after feeling rejected or desperately seeking closure that probably isn't coming, these coping mechanisms reveal so much about human vulnerability.Want to know if you're the Nigella Lawson of breakups or just a casual player in the post-relationship games?

Ever wondered what your face needs when your heart is broken? Beauty mogul Joelle Rotsart joins the Breakup Diet podcast to reveal the transformative power of self-care after heartbreak.Joelle takes us on her journey from fashion industry frustration to founding Injectable, a revolutionary aesthetics business built on dignity and innovation. With her plastic surgeon sister, she's created what she calls "the Netflix of injectables" - a subscription model for Botox that's changing the industry. But what truly sets her business apart is the focus on client well-being: complementary LED therapy, makeup stations for post-treatment touch-ups, and an ethical approach that includes turning away clients who aren't in the right headspace for procedures.For those seeking post-breakup rejuvenation, Joelle shares accessible options from facials and microneedling to the increasingly popular "salmon sperm" treatments (polynucleotides) that stimulate collagen production. She cuts through skincare marketing noise with straightforward advice: vitamin C in the morning, retinoids at night, always use SPF, and don't waste money on expensive creams that function like "Nivea in fancy packaging."With refreshing candor, Joelle opens up about her own "filler blindness" years, prioritizing therapy during breakups, and the challenges of dating while building a business empire. Her most powerful insight? The glow-up starts within. "I wasn't in my love era, I was in my girl boss era," she explains, emphasizing that true beauty and successful relationships begin with genuine self-love.Whether you're navigating heartbreak, considering cosmetic treatments, or simply curious about evidence-based skincare, this conversation offers both professional wisdom and personal warmth.
