Dr. Sharon Livingston: Best Friend Breakups
Tonight we’re talking about a topic that’s often swept under the rug....but statistics show 40 percent of us have experienced this deepest darkest pain: what happens when you break up with a trusted friend, your partner-in- crime, the girlfriend you thought would have your back forever? Being dumped by your BFF may feel like the worst betrayal you could ever face. But in every crisis there’s opportunity, right? This is the story of how a quirky therapist answers the phone one day, only to hear her closest friend say the dreaded words that cut her off forever. Meet. Dr. Sharon Livingston, one of the most prominent leaders in the field of motivational research. She is the author of “Get Lost Girlfriend: How I Found Myself When My Best Friend Dumped Me.” Dr. Sharon has been featured in in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Daily News, Newsday, and countless other media outlets.

Dr. Susan Heitler: Are You Living With An Emotional Terrorist?
For many people in relationships, the real success test is how you approach compromise. But for some, this is a minefield full of explosive behavior and triggers. So the question tonight is: are you living with an emotional terrorist? To be clear, we are not talking about abuse of any kind but rather the fear and ineptitude many of us feel when we have to deal with conflict in our love lives. Our guest tonight says we must learn to eliminate “terrorist” words that turn smooth-flowing conversations into danger zones. Meet Dr. Susan Heitler. Educated at Harvard and NYU, she writes popular Psychology Today and YourTango.com blogposts that have garnered over seven millions reads. Her Power of Two book and workbook teaches couples the skills for marriage success. Dr. Heitler is frequently interviewed in magazines such as Fitness, Men’s Health, Women’s World, Parenting and the Ladies Home Journal column “Can This Marriage Be Saved?” (which was developed as a TV show I hosted years ago!) And get this: in May 2004 Dr. Heitler appeared on the CBS Early Show where anchor Harry Smith introduced her as “the most influential person in my life—my therapist.” Her websites are www.poweroftwomarriage.com and www.therapyhelp.com.
