SOS: I ran into my ex
About this episode
Emma shares a chaotic story about running into her ex and explores the emotional implications of such encounters on personal healing.
If you've ever mentally rehearsed what you'd do if you ran into your ex... buckle up. Because one day, it's gonna happen. This week, Emma's telling you the story of the most chaotic first date of her life — a night that somehow involved her ex, some martinis and a YB. You truly cannot make this shit up.
