In episode 56 we are joined by Dr. Gary Lewandowski, Professor of Psychology at Monmouth University, to talk about relationships, break-ups, and self-expansion. Gary explains why the ending of a relationship is not always a bad thing and instead can lead to self-growth and rediscover of the self. How long does it take to get over a breakup? Why should being selfish be considered a good thing in a relationship? What are ‘expander’ and ‘conserver’ personality traits in relationships, and what combination leads to the most successful relationships? All this and much more in Breaking Up with Dr. Gary Lewandowski!
