EP 77: Rediscovering Yourself After a Breakup & The Reality of Casual Dating

Published: April 6, 2021, 4 a.m.

THE INTERVIEW // Louise,  the bestselling author of "Lou Who?" the honest and raw journey of a young woman battling to rediscover and redefine herself in a world that often makes us feel as if life ought to be a certain way. Louise is originally from Edinburgh, Scotland and moved to Vancouver, BC following a traumatic divorce in 2013. Her memoir is an honest story of her own life experiences, rebuilding herself after her divorce, and the boldly honest reality of casual dating. Louise is incredibly transparent about both her story and her relationships, but has done a great job at keeping the identity of her partners private, and she literally sugar coats nothing. The women also touch on how to not feel as though something has been taken away from you after breaking off an engagement, marriage or serious relationship, and how to prioritize your rediscovery after a breakup.
