Breaking Up w/Bad Boys zine

Volume 2 in Living the Ultimate Love Story zine series from Jenni Tooley

I admit it. I still fall for the Bad Boy archetype. (Hello, binge-crush on Christian Kane while I was recovering from surgery…). I spent most of my life in relationships with “Bad Boys”. You’d think my head and my heart would know that these relationships weren’t a healthy place for me to expend my life force.

My history with bad boys isn’t really about them—it’s about me. It’s about the ways I used to give away my life force, mistake drama for love, and try to fix people who didn’t even ask for it.

Breaking Up with Bad Boys: How not to date Christian Kane—is part story, part permission slip, part toolkit for anyone who’s ever been caught in that same loop. It’s funny. It’s messy. It’s mine. And now, it’s yours.

What’s inside this 8-page power-packed masterpiece?

• A raw story about codependency, attraction, and coming home to myself.
• Practical, playful tools (like a “Permission to Save Yourself from Yourself” slip you can literally tape to your mirror).
• Interactive ideas on how to use the zine—daily, weekly, or in one big gulp.
• A reminder that nothing is sexier than being lit up from the inside.

The Breaking Up with Bad Boys zine is this month’s surprise for Studio members (aka paid subscribers). The Studio is where I share my creative experiments, messy truths, and the tender anarchy of living wide-open.
