A breakup can be experienced as an insurmountable ordeal, a liberation, a failure or even a rebirth. But whatever happens, it is always a significant event that pushes us to move forward. To achieve this, all means are good. Why not use podcasts to move forward? Between testimonies, analyzes and expertises, there are many who prove, if necessary, that a rupture is not an end in itself, but simply the beginning of something else. Check out our selection of podcasts to help you overcome a separation.
"Heartache"
"Love stories end badly, in general"sang the Rita Mitsouko. But behind all pain, behind all heartache, lies the possibility of rebirth. This is particularly what Marie Gouillier wanted to highlight in her podcast Heartache.
In the eighth episode, Celine tells the story of a breakup in the form of liberation. She lived in a toxic relationship for 11 years and it was mainly thanks to the help of a psychologist that she was able to move forward and regain her confidence. But most of all, she learned to love herself: "Self-love is essential to feel good and find the key to happiness", she explains.
"EX…"
After a breakup, our first instinct is often to want to forget everything. What if ex-stories could also be extraordinary stories? In his podcast EX…, Agathe Lecaron wanted to show how each love story, even with the wounds it involves, can change the course of a life.
In the episode titled The statement, Elsa talks about how she left her partner after nine years of relationship, but especially how she met her real half when she wanted to experience celibacy.
"Lesson"
Failure. This word resonates like something negative in all of us. Through his podcast Lesson, Pauline Grisoni wanted to restore its nobility to failure, the one that builds us, the one that allows us to evolve. And for good reason: there is a lesson to be learned from every defeat.
In episode 35, comedian and host Manu Payet recounts the breakup that helped him grow up. This failure is that of his first love, when he was only 16 years old. After a year and a half of relationship, the one he had fallen in love with suddenly leaves him. An event that plunges him into deep sadness: he no longer goes to class, which pushes his parents to enroll him in boarding school, far from home. "I know it was destructive first, and after founder. Because if it hadn't happened, I wouldn't have been in this boarding school that's for sure. I don't know what I would have become", he explains.
"Emotions"
Corona cuffing, a phrase coined in the era of the Covid-19 epidemic, refers to finding a mate by any means possible, with the sole aim of not being confined alone. But what happens when we live this quarantine alone because we have just separated?
This is what Anne experienced, testifying in an episode of the podcast Emotions, entitled How to experience a rupture during confinement?. She tells how this special context finally allowed her to overcome this ordeal. This observation is supported by psychoanalyst Fabienne Kraemer, who explains that confinement allows you to face your suffering and therefore to begin the work of mourning more quickly. Proof that it is possible to bounce back in any situation!
"The Clinic of Love"
Sometimes the feeling of loneliness can be overwhelming after a breakup. Some then come to envy those who hold hands in the street or who display their so-called happiness on social networks. However, we know that life as a couple is not a long calm river.
Podcast The Love Clinic follows a psychiatrist and a psychologist who see couples on the verge of implosion. If they are in turmoil, they will go all out to save their romance, a sign that even when things are bad, there is still hope. Whatever the outcome!
