Sara feels like you is more human this week and the voice is returning to normal. Anna is seeing lots of patience in her practice with some major colds, it's snot all the way! Sara is forecasting a tough winter .... buckle down and Anna's public health announcement is in full flow.
Relationship correspondent is reporting on a trend of bird nesting divorces ..... it's a new one on us. Take a listen to fid out all about it. Times are potentially changing but the jury is still out if this is the right approach and there could be some tricky times to navigate. The conversation progressing and moves into living together apart ... maybe this is the way forward.
The hot topic for the week is "Common relationship fears - rejection!" there are some divergent thoughts amongst the girls. Anna started right out of the gate with fear of rejection in dating, they discuss if this is just females or males too. Sara had a different take and her thoughts went to rejection when in a relationship it's a big topic that impacts couples often. Attachment styles can play a big part of this.
This week the question being discussed is "I really want kids but my partner doesn't, they already have kids from a previous relationship, help!" this is such a major question this week, there are many scenarios that keep the girls chatting for a while. This is hard shit ..
It's an action packed show! Sara highlights that we can often have different views and perspectives about how the relationship we are in is going. It's not always healthy to be rose tinted. Anna requests that the Facebook/Instagram outage lasts longer and we avoid comparison mode. Sara watches the news for the first time in a while, can we please have some balance and promote some happier good news tales. She is on her soapbox!!!
Till next week!

Welcome to a fall podcast, the leaves are changing .... it's on its way, although you wouldn't know it with the temperatures now. The girls have a temperature war! Think Sara won that one. Sara is getting used to life without her daughter and the realisation that she won't walk through the door at any moment. She's ready for Christmas already to see her face once again.
Relationship news is a weird one! Sara is feeling her age as she shared this weeks news story, she's struggling to fathom it this week. Anna blows her mind when she shares something equally bizarre, OMG what's happening. Sara is shocked into silence, she has no words, seems like the theatre audience is in agreement. Maybe all filmmakers should aspire to make their audience feel sick. If all of this intrigues you take a listen.
The hot topic is finding purpose with your partner ..... how aligned are you in your relationship, is this a conscious thing for you? This might help to get you closer to a connection with each other. The girls explore where misalignment might occur and how purpose can help you and your relationship? Should you have a mission statement, values purpose? Would know this help you to understand where your clashes are.
Today the question is "I think my wife is still in love with her ex, what should I do?" .............. a nice segway from the hot topic .... Sara's take .... this person chose you ..... but Anna has a different view. Let battle commence!
That was a mental workout for the girls which triggers an issue with Sara about Sudoko and her lost ability! Here's to stretching the mind. Step away from Netflix's, stretching ahead ....
Till next week!

Sara is husky today, she wishes it was from partying hard but instead it is cold and phlegm less attractive but at least she knows it's not covid following her negative test. She's still trying to function and sharing her husky voice with the world. Anna's has hit the 2 months mark in Toronto ..... wow we can't believe it either.
Relationship new is still flowing, here's a little article called financial freedom Sara was reading whilst travelling on the train. Anna's gets a little bit of financial advice thrown in too!
The hot topic is judgement ruining your relationship? There are so many places judgement can show up in your relationship and the girls shine a light on this in today's podcast. There are so many influences on this, expectations, comparisons, stages of relationships ...... the girls get all out for discussion. Observing your own judgements can be difficult, it's often someone else who points it out to you, ideally, this happens before chaos ensues.
Today I'm a 33-year-old and I don't want kids. I'm thinking about freezing my eggs in case I change my mind, what should I do? Sara is curious about the fear and seed of doubt that's coming up for this listener. The biological body clock is ticking and it is bound to impact, take a listen to find out more and how the girls approach this topic and her Sara flounder in her medical appraisal of the situation.
Ending on a thought-provoking week with some tough homework for Anna, visioning, releasing judgement and making a will, she's gonna be a busy bee!
Till next week!

Switching from creative to journalists, four ways to handle jealous feelings in your relationship (a future topic perhaps?) take a listen to find out how to tackle jealously. The love desk is certainly delivering today.
The hot topic is ..... What are problem areas to look for in a relationship, how long do we have? The girls are pouring a glass of something to tackle this one. They don't hold back and delve straight into this topic. They look at choosing your partner as your person and maintaining the connection. There's a flashback to the starship episode (episode 7). And we hit a vital moment as Anna confesses she now sees sex as a secondary issue manifesting from a bigger problem ....... is she really a convert. They finish on kindness, say something nice and stop just stop, not backhanders need.
Today's relationship question is .... I just broke up with my boyfriend, we have a child together and I still love him, The relationship was toxic and abusive, what should I do? Oooucch ... we are feeling the pain and suffering in this question. It is a heavy question filled with sadness that affects many. Listen to the girls perspective on how to get out of this situation.
The podcast is ended on a mind-bending moment ..... a future topic ...... do all relationship problems come back to a lack of self-love.... a challenge for a future day for the girls to debate in the virtual boxing ring.
Sara is prepping for security and as she heads of the island after two years of being in the same place. Anna's pro masks on flights and Sara is worried she's going to return with COIVD, fingers crossed.
