In today’s episode of Not Over, Just Different, I sit down with relationship expert Jonathan Aslay to explore the raw journey of heartbreak and healing. We dive into why it’s essential to fully feel emotions like grief, anger, and self-doubt after a breakup rather than pushing them aside. Jonathan shares how bypassing these feelings can hold us back from real growth. If you’ve experienced a painful ending, this episode offers a powerful path to true healing.

Jonathan opens up about his own story, revealing how he tried to skip past his grief by focusing on gratitude, only to later realize he hadn’t really processed his pain. We discuss “spiritual bypassing”—using positivity to avoid dealing with hurt—and how that can stall emotional recovery. Together, we offer practical steps to sit with these tough feelings so they don’t resurface down the line.

Join us as we talk about moving forward with self-compassion and intention. You’ll learn how to embrace heartbreak as a way to reconnect with your truest self and get clear on what you want in future relationships. This episode is a must for anyone ready to transform pain into strength and purpose in their love life.

About Jonathan Aslay:

The focus of one of America’s Leading Mid-Life Dating Coaches has expanded into a deeper, essential philosophy of what it truly means to LOVE. After losing his 19-year-old son Connor in 2018, Jonathon Aslay’s grief led him on a soul-searching inner journey, where he became aware of an often-overlooked dimension of the dating conversation. He realized that the process of dating reveals the most common emotional health issue faced by many singles seeking a partner: a distressing lack of self-worth, self-regard, and self-love. Today, he is on a mission of encouraging both men and women to fully love themselves with a new book, “What The Heck Is Self-Love Anyway?”—packed with fun, engaging spiritual and personal growth practices—and his dynamic Mid-Life Love Mastery mentorship program, that inspires hundreds of people daily, around the world.

In this episode of Not Over, Just Different, I’m diving into something deeply personal: how we store emotional energy in our bodies and the importance of letting ourselves feel it. I’ll share insights from experts like Dr. Joan Rosenberg, who reveals that it’s often the physical sensations—tight chests, clenched jaws—that keep us from truly experiencing our emotions. By learning to sit with these sensations for just 90 seconds, we can actually release years of emotional baggage.

I also want to introduce you to a powerful tool that’s helping me on this journey, the FeelWise app. This incredible app analyzes the frequency in your voice to identify emotional energy you may not even know you’re holding. With daily check-ins, I’ve uncovered hidden emotions like sadness or cravings and found healthier ways to process them without ignoring or numbing them. I’ll share how FeelWise has helped me stay more balanced and grounded—and how it might help you too.

If you’re ready to break free from old emotional patterns, this episode is for you. I’ll be walking you through practical, actionable steps to connect with your emotions in a way that brings peace and clarity. So tune in to learn how you can use FeelWise and these insights to finally release what’s been holding you back and start living with more freedom and joy.

I’m thrilled to be joined by Lisa Garr, host of The Aware Show, as we dive into the art of navigating life’s big pivots and uncovering purpose through even the toughest transitions. Life throws us curve balls—whether it’s a career shift, a personal loss, or just an unexpected change—and together, Lisa and I talk about how to reframe those experiences to discover new inspiration and strength.

One of the most powerful themes we discuss is community and how vital it is when you’re going through uncertain times. Recognizing that you’re not alone is truly empowering; it helps you feel seen and supported. In our conversation, you’ll find advice on how to connect with like-minded souls to get the encouragement and resources you need.

We also explore the importance of acknowledging your emotions instead of brushing them aside, sharing Lisa’s approach to meditation and visualization as ways to process what you’re feeling, helping you clear the emotional weight and find new perspective. If you’re looking to turn life’s pivots into a purposeful path forward, this episode will give you the insights and inspiration to begin.
