We\\u2019re so happy to welcome back bestselling author Mark Manson to give more life advice that doesn\\u2019t suck. We\\u2019re discussing the truth about happiness \\u2013 that there is no \\u201cformula\\u201d for it, why \\u201cgetting rid\\u201d of your problems isn\\u2019t the answer, and recognizing delusional positivity. In terms of relationships, we talk about how you and your partner\\u2019s strengths and weaknesses counterbalance each other, how conflict strengthens a healthy relationship, and what you can be doing right now to improve your dating life. Mark also turns the tables on us and asks how the podcast has changed our dating life, and he shares his own wild cheating story, which leads us to our final discussion about post traumatic growth (how a lot of people end up thriving after a traumatic incident). Before Mark joins us, we talk about more changes in Rayna\\u2019s life (hint: porn and pedicures), Ashley\\u2019s DMV journey, and how we got in trouble in high school. We also spill some tea on someone Rayna ran into and who texted Ashley. Enjoy!
