## Resource

Forgiveness. The kind that’s awkward. Quiet. Not always cute. And doesn’t always come with a happy ending. This episode, we get into: • What forgiveness actually looks like when you’re in it • The difference between letting go and holding a grudge • How to know when you’ve actually moved on (vs just saying you have) • The levels of forgiveness no one really talks about Plus: a Solange appreciation moment, a lil nostalgia for the weirdest couples of the 2000s, and some good news from the week (cuz we all need it).
