In this episode, we're joined by bestselling romance author Alisha Rai, who shares the story of a relationship she desperately wanted to work—and how settling for "good enough" almost kept her from finding the love she truly deserved.
Along the way, we unpack the sunk cost fallacy that keeps so many people in the wrong relationships, enjoy a dramatic reading of an unforgettable post-breakup text thread, and hear must-listen dating advice from a real life exclamation point. If you've ever wondered whether your standards are too high (or secretly know they're too low) this one's for you.
