Nov 08, 2024•1 hr 26 min•Season 1Ep. 59
Episode description
Disney movies taught us to dream big about love—but did those dreamy storylines secretly mess us up? This week, Ditch the Ick dives into how Disney’s fairytales may have warped our expectations for real-life relationships. AND we have a special guest back on the mic: my bestie, Jersey! Together, we’re peeling back the layers of “happily ever after” to figure out what Disney got wrong (and maybe what it got a little right).
Highlights:
The Disney Effect: How movies convinced us that love should be instant, magical, and oh-so-easy.
Unrealistic Standards: Why expecting a Prince Charming might have us missing out on real, messy love.
“Happily Ever After”: Why the fairytale ending is the biggest myth and how to embrace reality.
Red Flags in Disney: Revisiting some classic characters (Prince Eric, we’re talking to you) to see how Disney skipped over some serious relationship icks.
Why You’ll Love This Episode:
If you’ve ever found yourself disappointed that love doesn’t look like it does in movies, this one’s for you! Jersey and I are here to ditch the ick and help you reclaim a healthier, more realistic view on love.
