Returning to an ex is a pattern, and it can be toxic if you don’t acknowledge the signs from your ex. During the healing process, you must reflect on the past toxic behaviors that cause the breakup and unhealthy relationship patterns.

When we experience a few challenging or short-lived relationships, we try to avoid the type of people we know are wrong for us. However, we still subconsciously attract those we know aren't good for us. Why? From our parents to our ex have left an "imprint that we may not be fully aware of." We will discuss the attachment styles and relationship patterns that keep us creating relationships with the same type of person, like your ex.

Are you mourning the loss of a relationship? Or do you find yourself on an emotional roller coaster after a breakup?

Breakups hurt like crazy, and experiencing a heartbreak can make you:

A. Question your faith about love - "I don't want to fall in love again. It's too painful."
B. Damage your self-esteem - "Maybe I'm just not good enough."

And the more you’re emotionally invested in a relationship, the more difficult to accept the heartbreak. Even though the relationship may have ended weeks or even months ago, it’s a painful and challenging process to move past the suffering.

In today's episode, I will discuss the seven stages of separation after a breakup and the steps you can take to survive each stage.

Do you believe in karma?

Are we here to learn life lessons?

Then you probably heard about karmic relationships.

We have a karmic relationship to break the cycle of destructive behaviors from a past lifetime and learn how to heal. The karmic cycle is a pattern meant to teach us a lesson in relationships we failed to learn.

These relationships are intense and extremely challenging and can be destructive. These turbulent, push-and-pull relationships can give us the biggest heartbreaks, not just once but in many relationships, until we break the cycle.

If you're not sure you're in a karmic relationship, here are my 11 signs from the Breakup Club Podcast - Episode #2.
