Jillian on Love

What if the story you’ve been telling yourself — that you’re “too much,” too sensitive, or too difficult — was never actually true? In this listener call, Jillian helps a woman unpack a lifelong belief that she’s “too much” and shows how that story can follow you into adulthood—especially in relationships. They explore what happens when sensitivity gets labeled as “difficult,” how a parent’s emotional limits shape your self-image, and why heartbreak can pull you back into old wounds.

Jillian is joined by Harvard psychologist Dr. Ellen Langer, the pioneer of mindfulness research, for a conversation that challenges everything you think you know about stress, healing, and being present. Dr. Langer explains why mindfulness isn’t about meditation—it’s about noticing. They unpack how our mindset shapes our relationships, our health, and even how we age. From letting go of labels to rethinking forgiveness, this episode is a masterclass in conscious living.

With Valentine’s Day around the corner, Jillian dives into one of the biggest obstacles to real love today — the growing resentment and distrust between men and women. In this episode of Jillian on Love, she explores how past hurt and social media narratives have pushed us into seeing the opposite sex as the enemy, and why that mindset quietly sabotages connection. Jillian unpacks the different fears men and women carry into relationships and how compassion and emotional safety are the foundation of lasting love.

Jillian works with a listener who’s spent most of her adult life in long-term relationships and is now learning how to trust herself in choosing love differently. After leaving a seven-year relationship and starting over on her own, she opens up about adapting too much in past partnerships, fearing the wrong choice, and struggling to know what she truly wants.

Jillian sits down with Jay Shetty to talk about what “the work” in love actually looks like — in real time. Jay shares why he created Messy Love (his Audible Original), where listeners get to “sit in the room” with real couples as they navigate cheating narratives, unmet expectations, old wounds, and the messy middle between conflict and connection. Jillian and Jay unpack why compassion isn’t permissive — it’s structured, boundaried, and powerful — and why most relationship fights spiral into accusation, criticism, and defense… leaving zero room for love. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re asking your partner to change…or asking them to be someone they’re simply not, this episode will land.
