Wed Jan 21 2026
In this season 5 finale episode of Unlicensed, Jill is joined by licensed clinical therapist and attachment-style coach Dr. Ibbie Aromolaran for a candid, insightful conversation about ghosting and modern dating. Together, they unpack why people ghost, how different attachment styles influence whether someone becomes the ghost or the ghosted, and the role early family communication patterns play in avoidant behavior. Dr. Ibbie breaks down why some people resurface after ghosting, how to recognize when reconnection is rooted in growth versus guilt, and the importance of setting and maintaining healthy boundaries. They also explore the lasting emotional impact ghosting can have, from diminished self-worth to trust issues, and what it actually takes to interrupt the cycle and communicate differently moving forward. Consider this your soft launch into therapy!
