Main Character Moment

This week I'm joined by Dr. Jessica January Behr, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, and Founder & Director of Behr Psychology for a candid conversation about lovebombing. Why do people lovebomb? What are the warning signs to look out for? And, how do you move forward in dating after this has happened to you? We're diving in. 

Part two of the terror reign of Dyson Man. Diving into the strange cracks in the relationship , the "hey girl" email, the crazy text I received after fleeing his apartment; plus, the reality of having your trauma go viral and then get featured on the Daily Mail. 

Mr. Dyson Man is in the house!! Well, not really, but we are talking all about him and how he got his vacuum nickname. In this week's episode, I'm revisiting the whirlwind romance I had with a man who was in fact lovebombing me, oh and also on dating apps the entire time we were together. Why is it so hard to trust our gut sometimes? Why do we justify weird and bad behavior simply becaus...

My sister Kate and I go on a very main-character-moment packed girls' trip to Los Olivos, drink lots of wine, and meet a California surfer vibes  cowboy, along with his fluffy baby cows. Plus, an unexpected text comes through. 

I went on a second date, and spoiler, it was weird. A reminder that just because they seem "nice and normal" doesn't mean that they actually are. But hey, as long as safety is prioritized, it's just plot development. Plus,  we discuss a potential regression in my breakup healing journey?

Sooo, maybe we're scratching that 2022 Dating Detox. I'm sharing an update from a recent date, how my approach to dating will be different this time around, and a reminder that it's always okay to change your mind. Plus, we're back with more listener questions. 

We're picking up where we left off last time. How this side character got nicknamed "Paella Man." Seriously, what is it with people choosing to dump their significant others at the most random times (ie. like right in the middle of an elaborate cooking date night)? 

Last May, I went through a breakup and found solace in #BreakupTikTok, deciding to join the party and start sharing my own healing journey on the app. In this week's episode, I'm telling the whole story that never made its way to TikTok. The rise and fall of the relationship with Paella Man (you'll understand this nickname soon). Why do we attach ourselves to people who are wrong fo...

You have that dreaded gut feeling that you want to end your relationship. How do you know you that it's not just a phase and you really want to break up with them? And how do you do it? I'm looking back on the early signs and some lessons learned. Plus, an ode to the single girl era. 

A true Main Character Moment... the story of that time I got sued by my ex. Yes, that actually happened. After initiating a difficult and painful breakup with the man I lived with (Part 1), my ex decides he is entitled to a breakup fee. This is the story of the lawsuit that unfolded the year following our breakup. 

Have you ever had to blow up a great relationship because something isn't right? After allowing my relationship to become the centerfold of my life, an unexpected opportunity to start traveling weekly for work caused me to re-evaluate my life path... 

On this week's episode of Main Character Moment, I'm revealing the one ex I am surprisingly on good terms with,  what my sociopathic cheating and lovebombing ex has been up to as of late, as well as providing some thoughts on the whole #WestElmCaleb situation. Plus, follower stories you won't want to miss. 

Join me for a trip down memory lane as I recount the story of my first love and heartbreak. Why do first loves hold so much power over us? Why is it so hard to walk away from something toxic? And how do we move on from these relationships? Don't ask teenage Meghan these questions because, as you'll learn, she was pretty dumb. Fortunately the 27-year-old version has some wiser insight. 

In the first episode of Main Character Moment, come say hi and learn what I have planned for the podcast. From the first loves, to the guys who love you too much, to the guys who don't love you enough, we are jumping into it all.
