#61 Cuffing Season: The Psychology Behind Seasonal Relationships

Michelle Chung Season 2 Episode 62

In this episode of Love, Life, and Energy, I dive into the phenomenon known as cuffing season—when people tend to seek short-term relationships during the colder months. I explore the psychology and biology behind why we crave connection in fall and winter, from evolutionary survival instincts to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and societal pressures. I’ll share insights on how these seasonal relationships can impact your love life and self-worth, along with a personal story from my time in Barcelona. Plus, I’ll discuss ways to find meaningful connections beyond temporary flings and invite you to a free webinar on manifesting a lasting soulmate relationship.
