What broken hearts and broken arms have in common


SARAH CURNOLES

BREAKUP COACH

​​Remember that 90s movie Rookie of the Year?

If not, it’s worth a rewatch. Here’s the gist: 12-year-old Henry is an average baseball player until he breaks his arm. When it heals, something miraculous happens: he suddenly has a lightning-fast pitching arm. The Cubs recruit him, and with his new skill (plus his quick wit and humor), he helps them win their division and head to the World Series.

I often say that healing heartbreak is a lot like healing a broken arm.

When you break a bone, you don’t just “wait it out.” You see a doctor, get a cast, protect it from further damage, and then work with a physical therapist to regain strength. There’s a process.

Heartbreak has a process too. And while you can figure it out on your own. When you do, that means you’re probably taking the long, painful road.

I know because I did it myself for years.

But here’s the thing: working with me as your breakup coach is like getting Henry’s miracle pitching arm.

💔 You process your grief and pain and learn how to handle those feelings for life.
💔 You stop the ruminating thoughts and self-blame and start feeling lighter almost immediately.
💔 You detach from the past and feel free again so you enjoy your life more.
💔 You reconnect with who you are and what you want, which means actually feeling what it’s like to love yourself.

And when you master these skills, your life starts to feel miraculous:

  • You wake up excited to start the day.
  • You rediscover hobbies and passions you’d forgotten or even try something new.
  • You feel energized, confident, and open.
  • Dating (when you’re ready) becomes fun, easy, and aligned with what you truly want so you end up in a more connecting, loving relationship.

Like Henry, you go back to your “normal” life but everything feels different, better, brighter.

And that’s what I want for you. To create your own miracles. Because you deserve more than ordinary.

It all starts with one simple step: a conversation.

SARAH CURNOLES BREAKUP COACH I remember going to lunch with a new friend 9 months after a breakup and I was still talking about how great he was and how great the relationship was for a little while. And she did what most female friends do. She talked about how maybe things would change. Maybe he’ll realize what he’s missing and he’ll come back. “It sounds like you had something really special,” she said to me. And since she was fifteen years older and happily married for 20 years, I thought...

SARAH CURNOLES BREAKUP COACH I remember a big fight I had with my ex that led to our breakup. I vaguely remember what the fight was about. What I can clearly remember was feeling completely out of my body. I was so incredibly anxious it was like I vibrated out of my body. All I had was a swirling of thoughts that were on an endless loop that kept me up all night. And the next day, I was a total mess when I met up with a friend to catch up. She spent the whole time helping me to calm down...

SARAH CURNOLES BREAKUP COACH I was the girl that thought getting my ex back was the solution. So when new clients come to me and tell me that’s their deepest desire, I really feel and understand this. My breakups were brutal. Not because of the conversation or how it went down, but because of how I felt afterwards. I made myself miserable. I was crying so much I was nauseated. I would drink a second or third glass of wine with dinner just so I could get to sleep at night. Or I cried myself to...
