Ever wonder why YOU are SO addicted to people who pull away? Today, you’ll finally find out.
If the harder you chase, the faster they run — you might be trapped in the anxious-avoidant cycle: where one partner craves closeness, and the other panics when things get too real. In this BBC episode, Violet breaks down why this dynamic feels like home but leaves you emotionally starved.
Inspired by the book Attached, we dive into real stories, psych-backed insights, and how to finally break free.
Bonus: Don’t miss the quiz at the end—It’ll help you decode your partner’s attachment style fast. Jump to minute 37:00 if you’re done guessing and ready to know who you’re really dealing with.

Think he was your soulmate? wrong. He was just a love bomber with good Wi-Fi.
This isn’t another “just let go” episode. This is your official detachment plan with a twist—designed for the girl who’s done performing for emotionally unstable men who ghost after six weeks of calling you “the one.”
In this short, savage 5 step guide, I’m breaking down how to detox from the fantasy, regulate your nervous system, and finally stop romanticizing the inconsistency of A LOVEBOMBER. Because love bombing isn’t love—it’s manipulation with good marketing.
You’re not crazy. You’re just waking up.
It’s time to stop making chaos feel like home.
And no, babe, he doesn’t get access to this version of you anymore.
So save this episode, share it with your friends, and leave a 5 star review when you're done.

Buckle up besties, because we’re removing the love goggles, dry-heaving over mixed signals, and finally realizing your soulmate is not the guy who ghosted you after “accidentally” falling into another woman’s vagina. Oopsies.
In today’s spicy little episode, ’m diving into the chapter that should be tattooed on every situationship survivor's forehead: Let Them Show You Who They Are from Mel Robbins’ book The Let Them Theory. This episode is for anyone confused, delusional, freshly dumped, or just in need of a no-bullsh*t reminder that love shouldn’t feel like a cryptic puzzle from a 2009 Tumblr post. If they wanted to, they would—and if they didn’t, they won’t. Period.
Subscribe now before I show up at your house and start reading this chapter out loud in a Russian accent until you cry and heal!!! AHHHHHHHH LOVE YOU <3
