Gentle Parenting Men & Cancelling an LDS Engagement at 21

What happens when you grow up Mormon… and then become a comedian? In this Heartbreak Hotel episode, Tyler Bender breaks down how her LDS upbringing influenced her relationships, dating choices, and sense of humor - including getting engaged at 21 and calling off the wedding. From gentle parenting boyfriends to navigating modern dating as a funny woman, this episode covers religion, relationships, marriage pressure, and why being “funny” isn’t the same as trying to be funny.

In this episode of Heartbreak Hotel, Cait checks in with author and witch Mia Magik to talk about the most powerful love spell of all: learning how to feel safe within yourself. They unpack dating patterns, inner-child healing, boundaries, masculine and feminine energy, and why the way you talk to yourself shapes the love that you attract. This episode offers grounded, actionable ways to shift your energy, raise your standards, and attract love that actually feels good.
