Love, Loneliness & Letting Go with Montana the Single Bestie

Love, Loneliness & Letting Go with Montana the Single Bestie

Author: Taylor James July 9, 2025 Duration: 49:15

Welcome to The Waffle Shop!


Joining me in the studio this week is one of my favourite people, Montana!


In this episode we dive headfirst into the emotional rollercoaster of relationships, heartbreak, and the glorious chaos of being single. Expect laughs, oversharing, and maybe a little too much honesty as we unpack why self-love is hotter than any situationship—and why cutting off your ex and your toxic friend might just be your 2025 glow-up move.


From gut instincts to ghosting, and friendship breakups that hurt more than that one time you got dumped via voice note (rude), this episode is equal parts therapy and stand-up.

The Waffle Shop Podcast


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.


Hosted by Taylor James, The Waffle Shop is built on the idea that the most meaningful talks happen when you’re just chatting about everything and nothing at the same time. This podcast lives in the space where personal stories about music, the realities of mental health, and the daily grind of adult life all intersect. It’s less about finding perfect answers and more about sharing the experience of figuring it out in your thirties, embracing the minor frustrations and small victories that define our days. Each conversation feels like sitting down with friends who aren’t afraid to be honest about the beautiful chaos of their journeys. Taylor brings in a different guest for every episode, and together they have a proper, meandering waffle-digging into past experiences, current challenges, and the odd bit of pop culture. You’ll hear genuine reflections on self-improvement, societal pressures, and the personal journals we all keep in our heads. The result is a comforting, often funny, and deeply human listen that reminds you that navigating life is a shared endeavor. Tune in for a blend of society, culture, and education, all filtered through the lens of real, unscripted conversation.
