  • Self Care & Support | Rebound Sex: A Step Forward or a Setback with Ben Schiller
    Do you really need to get under someone to get over someone? It’s a question that often comes up after separation or divorce, and in this episode, I talk with Clinical Psychology Registrar – Psychologist Ben Schiller to explore if there is any truth behind it.  We discuss the emotional pull of rebound sex and new relationships, why it’s so tempting to dive straight into something (or someone) new, and whether that really helps ease the loneliness and grief that can follow a breakup. Is it a distraction or does it help you heal? And how understanding our own emotional patterns can make all the difference. It's a BIG conversation with great insights.
