Podcasts about endings

What if you actually love living alone and are sick of the pitying looks from those who couldn't imagine happiness outside of coupledom? We're joined by Dr. Bella DePaulo who describes herself as 'Single at Heart' and shares why she's happy as a clam (even well into her 70s!) and feels anything but lonely being single even in a partnered world. We're discussing how to know if you truly are single at heart or where you fall on the spectrum, how you can thrive on your own whether it's for the long-haul or just in a passing season, and why you can have a meaningful, fulfilling life filled with love regardless of your relationship status.To learn more about Dr. Bella DePaulo go to https://belladepaulo.com/.

Welcome to the Celestial Insights Podcast, the show that brings the stars down to Earth! Each week, astrologer, coach, and intuitive Celeste Brooks of Astrology by Celeste will be your guide. Her website is astrologybyceleste.com.  

We often think being a good partner means putting someone else first—but what happens when you lose yourself in the process? In this episode, we're unpacking self-abandonment in relationships and the subtle ways people sacrifice their needs, boundaries, and identity for the sake of keeping a connection. We're also talking about the difference between healthy compromise and losing yourself completely, why self-sacrifice can quietly turn into resentment, and the signs you may be prioritizing a relationship over your own well-being. Ultimately, we explore how maintaining your sense of self is essential to building healthy relationships—and why the strongest connections are the ones where you don't have to abandon yourself to make them work.

This last episode before summer has us dreaming of the beach, Slushies—watching moonlight on the waves, reading novels in the sand. But not before we share this packed episode with you. Today we welcome special guest, Daniel Kuriakose, to hear about “The Common Well,” the literary journal he's relaunching alongside K Hank Jost. Daniel sticks around for our discussion of two poems by Mara Lee Grayson.     We admire the duality on display in the first poem's back and forth-ness which has us pondering the undulation of its syntax. The late reveal of whom the lyric speaker addresses is satisfying surprise. A clever turn of phrase sends the more seasoned members of the team straight to this 90's Divinyls' song. The way enjambment revises meaning after a line break in both of these poems reminds Jason of Heather McHugh's poetry. And ultimately Kathy bring us back to the two questions we ask of every submission: do you want to stay with the poem and do you want to share it? Join us in sharing our deep thanks for two members of our staff who are with us for the final time: Reese, our co-op, and Lillie, our sound engineer. Best of luck to your both in the future. Thank you, Reese! Thank you, Lillie! Over the summer, keep tuning in for a retrospective with deep cuts from our archive. Thanks, as always, for listening!      At the table: Dagne Forrest, Tobi Kassim, Daniel Kuriakose (special guest from “A Common Well”), Reese Pfunder, Jason Schneiderman, Kathleen Volk Miller, Lisa Zerkle, Lillie Volpe (sound engineer), Derek Grebis (sound engineer)          Author Bio: Mara Lee Grayson's poetry has appeared in Poetry Northwest, Tampa Review, and Nimrod, among other literary journals, and has been nominated multiple times for the Best of the Net and Pushcart Prizes. Grayson is the author or editor of five books of nonfiction. She holds an MFA from The City College of New York and a PhD from Columbia University and was previously a tenured professor in the California State University system. Originally from Brooklyn, New York, she currently resides in New Jersey.     Social media: @maraleegrayson  Website: maragrayson.com    She Winds Her Stems through Fire for Burning Leaves Fend Off the Grief of Being Mowed On the trampoline, young boys next door              bounce while inside, their mothers   debate wine or coffee. Another weekend              when the county's on emergency alert.    For now, bees land on dogwood flowers,               robins nest in tall trees    planted by the prior owners,              and my husband's on his knees out back   for hours, pulling branches from hydrangeas              I have neither time nor thumb    to nurture back to life. He's learned a lot              in efforts to identify the colony of ants    that sent a scout across our deck, through               the side door to a cat food bowl,    like what distinguishes Bumblebee               from Carpenter (they look the same,    the bumble fuzzier). A million years               of evolution, the male bee    still hovers in one place, waiting               for a female to fly by. I fold laundry   then look up which buds bloomed               in 17th Century Versailles. (You'd guess    invasive species but, unironically,              it's narcissus and orange blossoms.)    For years, I worshipped palms               on the other side of the Continental Divide,    like I was replanted, like new soil               could change the nature of the seed.   I looked for lightning and caught language              in my mouth. I dreamed of blooms,    then woke up in the desert,               staring at a mountain, believed to be    an imprint of ancient gods whose voices               echoed off the surface of the earth.    The nervous system replicates in utero,              its fight or flight part predetermined,    part piano keys the brain may tap. Healing,              says the therapist, happens in the pendulation.   Insects bounce along the glass as children,               mothers sip merlot in coffee mugs,    and the man I married after you               tans wrist to elbow, scratching up his forearms    rending dead wood stems. It's sticky business,              caught between my lush, infertile soil and flirting    with the bees, he knows that when I think about you,               I touch my self-concept on the page.    What the Fortune Teller Tells Me on the Night I Leave California The Channel Islands will one day rise up in the distance like a resurrected poet  high on mescaline and memories of pretty women. You will or won't  learn how to tunnel through a prison  of the mind. When the wind picks up, she says  she was awoken by the rumble of a saw  told so many times it must be true.  You might as well  drive six years backward, park beside a pool  in west New Jersey.                                       I think she means  beginnings are like endings: eyelid work,  a neuron matter, not ontology or god.  To transit is to navigate the synapses,  trade one water for another,  every body's chemistry the same  except for how the furniture's arranged,  which pieces we keep secret from ourselves.  She eschews the label hypocrite,  calls herself a hippopotamus instead. Oh, she's drinking like a river now,    but can you honestly say you've never felt  a kinship for a living being who could crush you and the glass of bourbon in your hand? Maybe when you were a child, your father  chalked equations on a dusty blackboard. Your height in centimeters  is your adolescent telephone number  divided by the times your mother screamed  bringing you into this world.  

If one things for certain, there's a lot of uncertainty in dating, relationships, and the world right now. We're joined by journalist and author Simone Stolzoff to talk about why people struggle so much with uncertainty and how this shows up in our romantic relationships. We're discussing the three traps that make us believe there's certainty even when there isn't, ways to build an uncertainty tolerance to apply to dating situations and relationships, and how to reframe 'not knowing' as something positive that sets us up for discovery to find the types of relationships and opportunities beyond what we thought was even possible.

We often hear the idea of “right person, wrong time”—but what if that's not really what's happening? In this episode, we're unpacking how timing and readiness often get confused in relationships, and why someone not showing up fully usually says more about their willingness to prioritize you than the timing itself. We're also talking about the way we romanticize almost-relationships, and how that can keep us stuck in stories that don't reflect reality. Ultimately, we explore how getting honest about readiness—yours and theirs—can help you move on from connections that aren't aligned and open up space for someone who actually is.

Could you really be one to two shifts away from having the type of healthy relationship you've always wanted? Our guest today, Amy Chan, believes so as she talks about the dating experiment that changed her life (that you all can do too) and how to look at dating like a sale funnel to identify which part is tripping you up.

As summer break begins, many educators find themselves carrying the weight of a hard year—stress, setbacks, frustration, negativity, and the moments that didn't go as planned. In this reflective episode of Teach Me Teacher, we explore what it means to move forward without being defined by the struggles behind us. How do we let go of what we couldn't control, learn from what challenged us, and return stronger for what comes next? This conversation is about reflection without regret, growth without perfection, and finding clarity in the lessons hidden inside difficult seasons. Together, we'll unpack how educators can move past negativity, reclaim perspective, and use the summer not just to rest—but to rebuild, refocus, and step into a new year with renewed purpose and resilience. Because growth doesn't happen in spite of the struggle—it often happens because of it.

"When I train candidates I always say start with Freud, learn the interpersonalist, learn the object relations folks, know from what you come, even if you want to be a radical interpersonalist, a radical relationalist, because having that stuff in your back pocket is organizing and creates an ideal to which you can aspire or choose not to follow, but at least you'll know what you're not following. My perspective on this stuff really comes from the idea that before we are free to break the rules, we need to know what the rules are and we need to be well grounded in them." Episode Description: We begin by appreciating the evolution of some fundamental practices in psychoanalysis. We consider the meanings of 'rules' and 'guidelines'. Joyce shares with us her current thinking on answering patients' questions – for some, it's helpful, for others, not. We discuss the use of the word 'fantasy' with patients as contrasted with 'guesses' or 'imaginings'. Joyce considers the many ways that patients terminate their treatments and how frequently it does not accord with traditional models of ending. We consider reluctance to leave the treatment relationship from both sides of the couch – analysts, too, have needs satisfied in this work and can play a part in the nature of the ending. Joyce relates how some former patients remain in contact with their analysts, and that isn't necessarily problematic.  For others, "being able to 'go it alone' represents an extraordinary achievement." She concludes that "termination remains an ideal worth holding onto. But loosely."   Our Guests: Joyce Slochower, Ph.D., ABPP, is Professor Emerita of Psychology at Hunter College & the Graduate Center, CUNY.  Joyce is faculty and supervisor at the NYU Postdoctoral Program, the Steven Mitchell Center, the National Training Program of NIP (all in New York), the Philadelphia Center for Relational Studies in Philadelphia, and the Psychoanalytic Institute of Northern California in San Francisco. She has written Holding and Psychoanalysis: A Relational Perspective (1996) and Psychoanalytic Collisions (2006). She is co-Editor, with Lew Aron and Sue Grand, De-idealizing relational theory: a Critique from within and Decentering Relational Theory: A Comparative Critique (2018), both of which received the Gradiva award in 2019. Her latest book, Psychoanalysis and the Unspoken, was published in 2024. She is in private practice in Manhattan.    Recommended Readings:  Grand, S. (2009). Termination as necessary madness.

This week wasn't messy. It was revealing. In this episode of Receipts & Reactions, we break down: • The escalating 50 Cent vs T.I. feud — and why ego never retires • Why family involvement changes the power dynamics in rap beef • The BAFTA controversy and what selective editing really says about media control • The viral Cardi B & Stefon Diggs breakup — and why holiday optics always tell the truth • The liquor industry losing $830 BILLION — and what Gen Z's shift away from alcohol reveals about culture • A memoriam honoring James Van Der Beek and civil rights leader Jesse Jackson This isn't gossip. We're talking ego, hierarchy, censorship, generational shifts, media optics, relationship psychology, and the difference between image and integrity. If you're tired of loud commentary and want sharp analysis instead — you're in the right place. "Ego is louder than talent."

We often get the question—when is the right time to have sex? In this episode we're digging into what we wish we knew when it came to sex, timing and the intimacy / expectations that come from it. We're discussing the challenge that comes from outdated rules like having sex on the third date, why its less about timing and more about the connection you've built, and how to feel more emotionally confident broaching the subject / deciding together that the time is right.

Join me and end-of-life doula and author Jane Callahan as we talk about meaningful endings. As she explains, “Because medicine has always been predicated on the idea of fixing, saving, and caring, we began to treat death that way – morphing society's view of death into primarily a medical and physical event, instead of a personal, spiritual, mental, and community-centered experience.” Jane's new book, A Death Doula's Guide to a Meaningful End, explores her experiences both personally and professionally, on how to come to terms with our mortality.

In this three-part podcast series, Amardeep Gill and Professor Catherine Staite explore the governance dimensions of local government reorganisation through the lens of 'ending well'. Drawing on research, policy insight and lived experience, the series examines what it means for dissolving councils to discharge their final governance obligations with the same care and rigour as their founding ones, and why the quality of an ending directly shapes the effectiveness of what follows.In the first episode, the discussion focuses on the paradox of ending and the complex reality that local government reorganisation is rarely just an administrative process. As councils are restructured through statutory structural change orders, shadow authorities, TUPE transfers and service continuity arrangements, longstanding institutions with decades of democratic history are deliberately wound down. The episode explores the governance risks that arise during this period of transition, particularly the danger that urgency and delivery pressures crowd out reflection, leading to rushed decisions, embedded assumptions and lost organisational learning. It considers how the way one institution ends can ultimately strengthen or undermine the foundations of the next.

Today we're discussing how dating isn't just about waiting for sparks or optimizing every move –it's about finding the balance between the two. We dive into the tension between chasing serendipity and over-strategizing your love life, why leaning too far in either direction can leave you feeling stuck or unfulfilled, and how to see where you fall on the serendipity to strategy scale to create space for both spontaneity and purpose, Enjoy! ----Take our Dating Archetypes quiz: https://howtobedateable.com/Read our book: How To Be Dateable: The Essential Guide To Finding Your Person and Falling in Love: https://howtobedateable.com/Try the Dateable AI Dating Coach: Get personalized advice trained on our years of podcast episodes, courses and frameworks: https://studio.com/dateableFollow us @dateablepodcast, @juliekrafchick and @nonplatonic.

What if one of the biggest mistakes in dating is also one of the most common—and hardest to admit? If you're hoping someone will change or dating someone for their potential instead of who they are right now, you may already be setting the relationship up to fail. In this episode, we explore why we so often expect partners to change for love, how this usually leads to disappointment, and what it means to accept someone as they are – while still being honest about needs, preferences, and deal-breakers.

What if we were to tell you in 6 years your love life would like entirely different in the best way possible? We're so excited to bring you this episode where we check in with some of the members of the Dateable community – many that we got to know super well over the pandemic from our Sounding Board Community + Programs – to see what has changed in their love lives and the biggest shifts they made that helped them date differently. We discuss how to meet someone from the apps to a grocery store, why ending things with the 'wrong person' helped get to the right one, and the ways truly understanding yourself and your patterns helped unblock what was holding you back.Enjoy! ----Take our Dating Archetypes quiz: https://howtobedateable.com/Read our book: How To Be Dateable: The Essential Guide To Finding Your Person and Falling in Love: https://howtobedateable.com/Try the Dateable AI Dating Coach: Get personalized advice trained on our years of podcast episodes, courses and frameworks: https://studio.com/dateableFollow us @dateablepodcast, @juliekrafchick and @nonplatonic.

Instead of looking externally for something to believe in, whether that's to governments, authority figures or societal norms...what would shift if you strengthened your belief in YOU?In today's podcast episode, we explore what becomes possible when you boost your self-trust, release grasping and begin opening up to the flow of Nature and the flow of your life.

I have to be honest — when I put out the casting call for people with interesting jobs, I wasn't expecting anything quite like this. Alexandra Sunshine is a senior editor at Kensington Books and, as she describes herself, is the number one romantic editor in the U.S. right now — meaning she has acquired more projects in the romantic genre than anyone else in the country. And yes, "romantasy" means exactly what you think it means: fantasy worlds, magical creatures, swords and crowns... and a lot of very explicit sex.In this conversation, Alex takes me on a full tour of the spicy book world — from the BookTok explosion that completely disrupted publishing, to the sub-genres you didn't know existed (shifter romance, omegaverse, dark romance, "why choose"... we get into all of it). We talk about why women are devouring these books right now, what it says about female sexuality and modern relationships, and why the "touch her and die" trope is basically the ultimate female fantasy. We also get into the surprisingly funny realities of her job: copy editors fact-checking whether a sex position is physically possible, boardroom conversations about explicit content, and the "chili pepper scale" that her sales team ultimately rejected.We also ended up having a really honest conversation about my own book (the psychological thriller I'm currently working on), and Alex gave some genuinely great advice for anyone who's been sitting on a story idea and hasn't started yet.Follow Alex: https://www.instagram.com/Alexhsunshine/Follow Kensington Books: https://www.instagram.com/kensingtonbooks/Alex's Book RecommendationsRain of Shadows and Endings by Melissa Roehrich: https://amzn.to/4cZJg6A Chasing the Wild by Elliott Rose: https://amzn.to/4d5ZcEeChasing the Ring by Lauren Rowe: https://amzn.to/4cQZIY7Chasing the Rush by Lauren Rowe: https://amzn.to/4tMkwWBSponsors:Ogee: Thanks to today's sponsor, Ogee: A higher standard for beauty.

What if we told you there is one trait that predicts if a relationship will work out (or not)? And this absolutely should be something you're looking for when dating. If someone you're seeing doesn't demonstrate these qualities – don't just walk away but run! In this episode, we dig into what we wish we knew to look for in a partner earlier, that eventually we realized through our own situations and those of friends. We discuss why this one thing will make or break a relationship, how to see if it's a quality the person you're dating possesses and why so many of the red flags we focus on don't matter – but this one does.

In this episode of Quick Book Reviews, Philippa is joined by bestselling author Tom Rob Smith to talk about his moving and deeply personal new novel, 20 Years Together.Known for acclaimed books including Child 44, and for screen work such as London Spy and The Assassination of Gianni Versace, Tom discusses why 20 Years Together is such a different book from his previous work, why he chose to write it now, and how it grew out of real emotional and philosophical questions around love, commitment, and marriage.This is a conversation about writing, relationships, storytelling, hope, and the challenge of creating an ending that truly lands.In this episode:Why Tom Rob Smith wrote 20 Years TogetherHow the novel was inspired by real questions about marriage and long-term relationshipsWhy this book is so different from his crime and thriller fictionThe overlap between love stories and thrillersThe challenge of writing emotionally honest fictionWhy endings matter so muchHow a book can leave readers in tearsTom's thoughts on adapting stories for television, film, or fictionHow place, views, and writing environments shape the creative processWhat Tom is reading right nowBooks and authors mentioned:20 Years Together – Tom Rob SmithChild 44 – Tom Rob SmithLondon Spy – Tom Rob SmithThe Assassination of Gianni Versace – based on the book by Maureen OrthAftermath – Rachel CuskThe Swimming-Pool Library – Alan HollinghurstThe Line of Beauty – Alan HollinghurstOur Evenings – Alan HollinghurstThe Diving Bell and the Butterfly – Jean-Dominique BaubyWhat to expectThis episode is perfect for listeners who love:thoughtful author interviewsbehind-the-scenes writing conversationsliterary fictionemotionally powerful novelsdiscussions about relationships, marriage and identityTom Rob Smith's books, television work, and creative processPhilippa and Tom also talk about dream and nightmare writing locations, how different stories reveal themselves as books or screen projects, and the emotional complexity of writing a novel that draws more closely on personal experience.A conversation about hopeOne of the most striking themes in this interview is hope — in fiction, in relationships, and in the stories we tell ourselves about the future. Tom reflects on setting 20 Years Together against the backdrop of 2012 London, and why he wanted to capture a sense of optimism and possibility.Biscuit verdictA controversial moment for the podcast: Tom Rob Smith is not much of a biscuit eater. However, there is a nostalgic nod to the chocolate digestive, plus a writing fuel combination of dates and dark chocolate.If you enjoyed this episodePlease follow, rate and review Quick Book Reviews, and share this episode with a fellow reader.

The Canadian folk trio The Pairs don't necessarily have the answer, but they are working through these feelings on their new album, Together on a Rock.

In this episode, I talk about how surprise endings, break ups, job loss, etc - any big unexpected change - can be absolutely amazing, a gift, and the universe redirecting us to something better.It's possible to redirect our mindset out of misery and sadness, into celebration and opening. With surprise endings, one door is closed for us, and one million additional doors open. How miraculous is that?Sometimes, feeling better and being excited about the future is as easy as deciding to change our own mind and our own thoughts. Say no to negative self-talk, say no to projecting negativity and awfulness into the future. Assume the best is yet to come. Life is happening FOR you, NOT to you. Assume this has been removed from your path because there is something better out there for your future .The universe has your back - believe it, claim it, live it. You can do this! Get excited about what's next.-Secrets of a Witch is a podcast by writer, artist, and spiritual teacher Sabrina Scott.

CT 204 Foolish Vows and Mysterious Endings by Sunnybrook Christian Church

Carl (A.C.) Newman has led the Canadian indie rock supergroup The New Pornographers for more than two decades. Their upcoming 10th studio album, The Former Site Of, explores big ideas like loss, uncertainty and acceptance. The milestone comes after a turbulent year for the band, following the arrest of their former drummer on serious criminal charges — a moment that forced a difficult rupture and a period of reflection. Carl joins Tom Power from New York to reflect on that upheaval, re-recording with rock and roll legend Charley Drayton, and what it means to slow down and savour the moment.
