This week on A Cuppa Love, we’re joined by the wonderfully honest, empathetic and funny Jeff Gunther — licensed therapist, author of Big Dating Energy, and host of the podcast Problem Solved.

Jeff believes even the most mundane tasks — like cleaning the loo or taking the bins out — can be sexy. Seriously. For those of us deep into long-term love, there's still hope for passion (even if your partner leaves socks everywhere).

We chat about polyamory and how it can work long-term (rare, but real), and Jeff breaks down how often couples actually stay together after infidelity — the answer might surprise you.

He also shares super clear, practical advice for anyone navigating the dating world. Real tips you can actually use.

Listening back, I was laughing out loud and learning — always a good sign.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Today, I'm speaking to my dad, Richard Stoker.

Sweetheart? Yes.

Savage? Definitely!

While I was growing up, he was the yin to my mum's yang and a huge influence in shaping how I think about happiness. Dad has always had strong views on how we should live, make decisions, and think about problems. It's different to most people, but it's got him a long way... And he's a pretty happy guy.

We speak about some of the lodgers we had when I was young. How his mindset helped him grow his little market stall to a business employing 40+ people, and why helping others matters. We also get into the weeds about the messy contract negotiations he helped me out with when I was young (sorry about that dad!)
