Expect real conversations about therapy, recovery, coping skills, resilience, mental health stigma, relationships, boundaries, healing from old and new trauma, and finding hope after adversity.

They either bounce from one unsatisfying relationship to another, or they are so terrified of getting hurt that they avoid the dating scene altogether.
