In this follow-up episode to last week's "Seven Warning Signs Your Man Might Be A Cheater," Jayna tackles a big question: Should you give a cheater another chance or move the heck on? The answer seems simple - if you asked a friend, for example, most would scream "NO! Dump his ass!" but it's easier said than done…Oftentimes, it's not that cut and dry. There are so many things to take into consideration- maybe you have a long history, a family together or a deep love you don't want to lose. Considering 68% of men and 32% of women who cheated are still married, staying together after someone stepped out of the marriage is not that uncommon at all! This can be a very confusing time, so Jayna is offering a fresh perspective- some things to consider while making your decision. The goal? To help give you clarity as well as confidence and ultimately, have you come out of this battle stronger, smarter and better than ever. 4 Things to remember: You are not stuck This could be your biggest blessing There are other people out there! The upgrade could be your new peace of mind Covered in this episode: What to do if your partner has been unfaithful Survivors of infidelity Personal cheater stories Marriage problems Statistics on infidelity Feeling stuck in a relationship Getting unstuck Finding the courage to leave Starting over When is it time to end a relationship?

A super gushy, warm and fuzzy celebration of love just in time for Valentine's Day! Jayna gets to hear love stories for a living. After 18 years of asking every bride that sits in her chair how they met their person, thousands of responses later, she has heard them all. Today, she's going to share her favourite. This isn't your typical meet cute in a grocery store. Just because Jayna has had bad luck in love, doesn't mean she can't celebrate Cupid. Today, no matter what your relationship status is or how you feel about the Hallmark holiday, Jayna is here to reassure you that there is always hope for love! So, light some candles and unwrap your chocolate hearts. We are shining the spotlight on love with one of our very own BLE besties, the sweet and sassy, Yasaman. As a past bride and always unique, she brought her own chair to the booking and almost knocked Jayna off her feet with her remarkable story. The path that brought Yasaman and Rob together was not easy, or conventional, but the universe conspired to ensure that someone so full of life did not end up half loved.

The stars have aligned and in true serendipitous fashion: This 40th Episode of Big Lash Energy is also the 40-year anniversary of Jayna's womb evacuation. On this monumental birthday, Jayna is looking back on the past 10 years, and exactly how different her present reality is from the future she had envisioned for herself reminding herself that progress does not always look the way we expect it to.

Admitting she does feel 27 with 13 years of experience, but that experience has made her wiser. She is no longer waiting politely to be acknowledged and has taken the lead on planning her own birthday festivities, with the amazing women who have been by her side through it all. This year, the celebration is going to be - big, loud, and full of love! To take the advice of John Lennon: "Count your age by your friends, not years. Count your life by your smiles, not tears."

What is the opposite of a Gold Digger? Is there a name for that, oh, yeah…Jayna. This week against the advice of her sister, Jayna is dishing on what she learned and loved while dating Broke Guys, almost exclusively. After a childhood embodying strong female artists chanting "No Scrubs" and "Bills Bills Bills" how did Jayna end up with her own string of Kevin Federline's (minus the babies)? If you enjoyed the 50 Shades of Red Trilogy (episode 9), you'd understand why Jaynas bank account would signal for distress when she meets a new man (if it could). Tragically, Dee was not the only man to exploit her generosity. There was a time when she was thrilled to enjoy her partner's uninterrupted attention and the flexibility of their time and availability she focused on finding a man for his company, humour, and intelligence (regardless of his employment history) Hopefully, you can learn and laugh from her experience so you don't have to waste your time and energy with a guy worth 30 cents less than a quarter. Covered in this Episode: Perks of Dating Broke Guys Never too busy to text you back Available for any adventure (as long as you pay) Never too tired for sex (and usually Great at it!) They are there when you need them (As long as you don't need money) Personal broke guy Dating experiences The benefits of dating someone who can keep up financially If you have had a similar experience and are an authority in dating broke guys please email us at [email protected] to share your story!

Jaynas response to a *very* harsh review. Trigger Warning: Sexual Assault They say your vibe attracts your tribe. Each week, Jayna has bared it all, tackling some incredibly personal issues. Because of her real, big sister-like chats, this tribe has garnished a loyal following of BLE besties. Your encouragement, DM's and thoughtful reviews have made this feel like a safe space to share and heal. This week, however, Jayna received some unsavoury feedback that almost took the wind right out of her sails. Of course, bad reviews are to be expected, but this one hit different. Why? Because as she explains, Jayna knows that the attack on her character and the criticism of the way she handled a sexual assault is exactly the same thing so many others like her have faced. She could have simply let the review fade away, but she knew she absolutely needed to stand up for all of the other silent sufferers. Listen in as Jayna uses the critique as a motivator to address a very important issue. She explains herself so that you don't have to.
