GHOSTING: Quickie with Amanda Blair

QUICKIE: Ghosting...the original bad boy. Everyone has a ghosting story and most people have been on both sides of the equation.

If a breakup wasn’t bad enough, Ghosting takes it to new levels as it gives absolutely no explanation, follow up, or point of further communication. Today we've got Amanda Blair here to  break down all the ins, outs, energetics and tips for ghosting. We also cover the Science of Ghosting — yes, this has been a scientifically researched topic!
