It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today we're joined by one of Sharleen's closest Bachelor Nation friends, Jacqueline Trumbull, and her fiancé Paul Seli!

You may remember Jacqueline from Arie's season, where she, like Sharleen, withdrew in Week 7. She and Paul are both in psychology (Jacqueline is a PhD student at Duke University, where Paul is a professor of Psychology and Neuroscience), so needless to say, there's fun analysis of relationship dynamics in today's conversation. We learn how Paul overcame jealousy in the early stages, how their psychology backgrounds play a role in their relationship, and their thoughts on The One. Finally, a real nail-biter of a Dear Shandy Newlyweds Game! Who knows who better? Watch on to find out!

It's Caller Day! Today we're joined by TWO lovely callers. Our first caller, Lisa, is in the very early stages of dating a guy who seems accompanied by red flags. Should she end things before she gets invested, or is it too soon to throw away the first "butterflies" she's felt in awhile? Our second caller, Danielle, is an introvert in a relationship with a full-blown extrovert, and she feels their differences in this regard could be causing a red flag. Should she attempt change her ways or does this speak to a deeper problem? Watch on for the Shandy take!

In keeping with tradition, we're doing something a little different to ring in the New Year. This topic has been requested for awhile now, so today, inspired by Episode 1 (How We Met) and Episode 21 (Our Proposal Story), we're doing another throwback! We're going back in time to January 2015 thru September 2017, to what happened after Andy proposed. Listen on to hear why we waited 2.5 years for a wedding, what expenses got out of hand, how "influencer"-dom played a role, "The Moment" that made it all worthwhile, and in retrospect, what we would have done differently!

Today we're diving deep into a topic you've been requesting since Dear Shandy's earliest days: Enmeshment. We're joined by psychotherapist Alyssa Mancao to define this dynamic, how to navigate it, and when and how to set boundaries. This conversation also spawns a lot of interesting tangents on subtopics ranging from culture norms to differentiating between irritation and impairment.

Alyssa Mancao is a psychotherapist and the founder of Alyssa Marie Wellness, a therapy practice in Los Angeles. She is a writer, speaker, and educator focused on Social Justice & Mental Health. Her writing has been featured in Huffington Post, Elle, Women’s Health, Oprah Magazine, and Re-Spin, among many others.

Today's topic came hotly requested and we're thrilled to be joined by a familiar face: Whitney Bischoff Angel, winner of The Bachelor Season 19! As an experienced fertility nurse, as well as a woman who has gone through the egg freezing process herself, Whitney is more than qualified to answer the Shandies' burning fertility questions!

Whitney shares the leading contributing factors to infertility, whether or not the age 35 is overblown as being THE age when fertility begins to drop, the step-by-step process of egg freezing (as well as the cost!), and her thoughts on the media's messaging around fertility in general. Whitney really is a wealth of knowledge and this conversation was both so enjoyable AND informative for us. We hope you think so, too!

Today's guest is the founder of Renew Breakup Bootcamp, a retreat that takes a scientific and spiritual approach to healing the heart. She is also the author of the instant bestseller Breakup Bootcamp: The Science of Rewiring Your Heart. Needless to say, she knows a thing or two about breakups and how to recover from them!

Amy shares the top 3 mistakes people make when going through a breakup, the chemical reason why reaching out to an ex for "closure" will only impede your healing, her thoughts on "The One", and why we're attracted to the wrong people in the first place. She provides great tips for healing and discovery, and we promise you'll leave this episode feeling more in control of your emotions (and actions!) than when you started listening. PS—Don't miss her "breakup" with Andy!

Amy has been writing about relationships, dating and love for over a decade. She's the Editor-in-Chief of Heart Hackers Club – an online magazine that focuses on the psychology behind love, lust and desire. Her work has been featured on Good Morning America, in Vogue, Glamour, Nightline and the front page of The New York Times.

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today we're joined by one of Sharleen's best friends from the franchise, Jasmine Lorimer, the one and only Bachelorette Canada! She and her boyfriend of nearly 2 years, Eric, join Shandy to talk first impressions, how they complement each other, how they navigate different love languages, and of course, how they FIGHT! This one's a real treat for our Canuck Shandies (especially those born in the 80s!) as the Canadian references never stop. 🇨🇦 Finally, one of the funniest Dear Shandy Newlyweds Games to date! Who knows who better? Watch on to find out!

It's Caller Day! Today we're joined by caller Vivian, who is in a happy relationship but with one caveat: she doesn't feel understood when it comes to their exchange of gifts. Does this speak to a greater issue? Just how important is the effort behind gift giving, and what if that effort is barely there at all? Listen on for the Shandy take!

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 We have YOU, dear Shandies, to thank for this Love Fest as you passionately requested this wonderful couple. Today we are joined by Jess Ambrose, stylist and co-host of the Chatty Broads podcast, and her husband Evan Ambrose, musician, producer, and co-host of Chatty Bros! This couple may not be directly from the Bachelor world, but they are more than qualified thanks to their famed podcast and commentary, so this marks our first foray into non-Bachelor coupledom!

Jess and Evan share the fascinating story of how they met, how a break from their relationship is what saved it, and how religion played a role in their partnership. They also talk parenthood, the ways in which they complement each other, and of course, how they FIGHT! Finally, the Dear Shandy Newlyweds Game! Who knows who better? Watch on to find out!
