S1 E11: Responding to Questions After a Breakup
In this episode of Grab Your Light, Lauren reflects on the experience of navigating questions from others after a breakup, from curiosity and concern to assumptions and unsolicited commentary. Drawing from personal experience, she explores how to respond in ways that feel honest, protective, and aligned with where you are emotionally.
This conversation centers on discernment and boundaries: deciding what you want to share, recognizing when silence is an answer, and giving yourself permission to hold parts of your story privately. It also acknowledges the balance between extending grace to others and honoring your own readiness to speak.
This episode continues the Season 1 exploration of early emotional processing and relational boundaries following the end of a relationship.
