Why Dating Feels Like a Horror Movie (And How to Survive It) Feat. Rory Uphold
•
Dating can feel like a horror movie sometimes—and in this episode, we're embracing that idea in the best way possible.
I'm joined by Rory Uphold, author of A Final Girl's Guide to the Horrors of Dating, for a conversation about heartbreak, healing, confidence, and what it really means to become the "final girl" in your own life. We explore how the horror movie archetype mirrors so many of the challenges women face in dating, from surviving toxic relationships to rebuilding trust in yourself after your heart has been broken.
We also dive into the ways rom-coms, social media, and cultural expectations shape our beliefs about love, why so many women struggle to trust their intuition, and how to break free from the patterns that keep attracting the wrong people. I share practical strategies for reprogramming limiting beliefs, strengthening your self-worth, setting healthy boundaries, and creating relationships rooted in self-respect instead of fear.
If you've ever struggled with heartbreak, anxious attachment, dating burnout, or wondering why you keep ending up in the same unhealthy relationship dynamics, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The "Final Girl" mindset and how it applies to dating and relationships
- How to heal after heartbreak and emotional trauma
- Why we romanticize unhealthy relationships
- The hidden influence of rom-coms and media on our expectations of love
- How to rewire limiting beliefs and build lasting confidence
- Learning to trust your intuition and set boundaries without guilt
- What it really means to become the woman who chooses instead of chases
