  • Gender inclusivity needed

    Awesome podcast but gender inclusivity is needed. As a trans man, I resonate w everything but all of the “female love addiction” is not helpful. Why does it have to be female? And I’d love to pass it on to all of my nonbinary and trans friends but I can’t bc of this reason. Lots of queer ppl need this pls consider broadening your language

  • Wow

    I just got out of a 5 year relationship and had immediately latched on to someone else similar with lots of intensity. They broke things off and I didn’t realize why I felt like I was dying when I was alone. I recently overcame my food addiction and have leaned full force into my love addiction with some drinking on the side. No other articles or podcasts have ticked every box like this one. EVERYTHING hits home. Thank you so much for this. I feel like I have hope now

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP74: Loving Hard with Symphonie Smith, PhD
Q: Looking back on your history with relationships, can you see where that influenced you in relationships?
Dr. Smith discusses recognizing how early family dynamics and cultural expectations influenced relational patterns, including trust and avoidance, and how the Self-Centering Framework helps clients reframe these patterns while maintaining connection.
EP73: Do It For Her with Kim Litton, LCSW
Q: What finally led you into recovery?
After multiple realizations and attempts with different therapists, she found a CSAT-focused therapist in 2015 who acknowledged love addiction and helped her engage in a structured recovery process, leading to sustained sobriety and ongoing therapy.
EP73: Do It For Her with Kim Litton, LCSW
Q: What were your shenanigans before recovery?
She describes a cycle of dating and sexual acting out, using multiple partners and Tinder as a playground, and how she engaged in behaviors that fed her love addiction while hiding the depth of her pain.
EP73: Do It For Her with Kim Litton, LCSW
Q: Okay. And when do you think you were introduced to love addiction?
Kim explains that love addiction was introduced to her during her therapy training as she explored women's issues and realized her own experiences included love and sex addiction, evolving through several therapists until she found one who recognized it as love addiction.
EP71: Singlehood with Chanté Joseph
Q: For anyone listening who feels pressure to be in a relationship or feels embarrassed about being single, what advice would you have for them?
Know your reality, build a reliable community, set a clear dating plan with boundaries, and prioritize your own life and fulfillment. Recovery from love addiction involves recognizing patterns, ending cycles early, and creating a life that feels meaningful outside of romantic partnership.
