#23 How to Cope When Your Ex Moves On Before You (Emotional Healing Tips)
Description
In this episode of The Breakup Debrief, Kelly opens Season Three by tackling one of the most gut-wrenching parts of heartbreak: when your ex moves on before you.
Whether you found out through social media, mutual friends, or pure accident, that moment hits like a punch to the chest. Kelly breaks down why this triggers panic, intrusive thoughts, comparison spirals, and the sudden fear that “I’ve been replaced.”
Rather than focusing on the other person, this episode helps you understand your nervous system, your emotions, and why this moment does not mean you’ve lost, failed, or fallen behind.
Kelly explains:
💛 Why your brain spirals into “what does this mean?”
💛 Why your ex moving on isn’t evidence that they’re happier
💛 How avoidant or unhealed partners often jump into something new as a distraction
💛 Why the person who sits with their pain actually heals deeper
💛 How to avoid making their new relationship about you
💛 And how to re-centre yourself when your confidence is shaken
This episode is your reminder that your healing isn’t a race, your worth hasn’t been touched, and someone else’s relationship is not a reflection of your value.
