  • 7 - Toxic Love

    "Are you attracted to fu*kboys/fu*kgals or emotional unavailability? If this isn't you, I'll bet you have a friend or someone in your family who seems to be 'hooked' on partners who treat them poorly.

    In this episode we unpack some of the reasons why this can occur and we also look at ways you can overcome toxic love. 


    We touch on the topic of narcissistic abuse and urge anybody who is a part of this dynamic to reach out and find tailored support. Women's Aid is a national organisation in Ireland dedicated to supporting domestic violence (to include emotional abuse/coercive control) for women and children. Their 24-hour helpline number is 1800 341 900. Men's Aid Ireland is the only dedicated support group for male survivors of domestic abuse (to include emotional abuse/coercive control) and their contact number is 01-5543811.


    As always, if you enjoyed this episode and think a friend or family member could benefit from hearing it, please share and talk about what resonates with you - if not with another person, with us. One of our goals with this podcast is to tackle the stigma and debunk some of the damaging myths in love - we can achieve this by talking about our struggles (one by one), rather than keeping them hidden.


    We would also love it if you could take a minute to rate, review and/or subscribe to the podcast as it really helps to spread the word and normalise how we can all struggle in love and how we are not alone. If you have already done this, amazing and thank you for your support."

  • 6 - Your Questions Answered..

    "In this special episode Tracy and Annie answer YOUR questions about love in this lockdown.


    Last week Annie stuck up a question box on her Insta stories asking you what you wanted us to discuss and there were so many responses! Thank you. There were questions about how can you meet someone within 5km restrictions .. how to maintain long distance love, and what does it mean if your partner wants to take a break. We also normalise the real life struggles when you're in your partner's face and in your own face. Love in lockdown is not just about intimate partner love and in this episode we touch on some of the ways we can self-love in difficult times and why it's essential.


    Thanks to everyone who sent in questions, if we didn't answer yours this episode it's not because it is any less important than the ones we chose, it's completely the opposite, we have them pinned for future episodes.

  • 5 - Intimacy fears...from your childhood years

    Can your childhood impact your dating life?

    Have you ever considered how comfortable you are with being close or intimate?

    This episode explores our fears of intimacy which can have roots in our childhood (who knew!) and can be linked to

    serial dating,

    perfectionism,

    fussiness,

    fear of commitment,

    and struggles to create meaningful connections with others.


    Annie and Tracy chat about how our blueprints for love are not all the same. How dating or being in a relationship can be harder for some people and why we must lose all blame and judgement. Annie teaches some of the ways to open to deeper love and the importance of healing your past for your future

  • 3 - F**k Fairytales

    "Episode Two: F*ck Fairy Tales

    It's time to smash the myths about Love

    Have you ever wondered what might happen if fairy tales continued long after prince charming meets the fair maid, would we have more realistic expectations about the creation and maintenance of intimate relationships? In this episode we debunk some of the myths that can keep us small and helpless in love. We tackle the fairy tales regarding expectations, timelines, marriage, babies, “ideal partner”, happiness, and we offer tips on how we can show up more fully in love and identify how we can reclaim our power and regain a sense of control over our love lives.
