Break Up On Purpose: A Catalyst for Growth
About this audiobook
From the author of I Used to Be a Miserable F*ck, the Angry Therapist, an honest guide to breaking up and breaking through
Every breakup is a transformation. A breaking down and breaking through to a new version of who you are now, after you have severed ties. Nothing will change you like a broken heart. Yet every breakup is different.
John Kim, the Angry Therapist, has seen thousands of patients through breakups of every brutal, freeing, heartbreaking kind—and he’s lived through failed relationships and a divorce of his own. Through his journey as a therapist and as a partner and father, John has identified eight types of unique breakups—and how to get over them:
- The Big One Break-Up (the One you Compare All To)
- The Blindsided Break-Up
- The “Flat Soda” (Mutual) Break-Up
- The You Cheated/You Left Me for Someone Else Break-Up
- The Soap Opera Break-Up
- The Almost-Relationship Breakup
- The Break Up That Never Ends
- The D-word (Divorce)
