Everyone Has An Ex

Money. We work hard for it. It can bring so much joy, especially when shared with loved ones to create long lasting memories, as was the case for Bianca.

But there’s a dark side to money. Or more so how it can turn acts of kindness into entrapment and loved ones into vultures.

Acceptance. We all crave it and it makes us feel good. But it feels extra special when it comes at a time in need and from someone who you immediately fancy and this was the case when Sacha met Jay.

But the thing about acceptance is that when you have it, it’s something you’re scared to lose. Even if what originally felt so good, starts to feel isolating and….off. And what once felt safe, feels very, very scary.

The power of the sisterhood. Isn’t it glorious? Female friendships can really be the true, Great Loves of our lives. Lucy certainly felt it with her bestie, Holly.

The best thing about a girlfriend? They’re there through everything. The good times and the bad, all the hurt and the heartbreaks. Unless of course, they’re the one who caused them.

Age differences. Do they really mean anything? You’re only as old as the person you feel, age is but a number, etc etc etc. It doesn’t matter when you’re in love, right? That was the case for Carly. She’ll be the first person to tell you age doesn’t mean a damn thing when you find your One. But whether age is the problem or not, some love stories just don’t end the way we plan.

A heads up: this episode deals with serious themes including domestic violence, coercive control and suicide. Listener discretion is advised. 

We always hear how great a relationship is when it begins. Why else would it, right? There’s butterflies, late nights staying up talking, a sense of belonging, desire and comfort. Having that one person to plan life with and who’s just desperate to have you around all the time.

But what about when that desperation becomes too much and starts looking and feeling more like … control? And then that control becomes worrying .. and scary … and dangerous?

Words. Some say they’re the most powerful tool we have as humans. Words have the ability to portray thoughts and emotions, share stories, convey feelings and make people feel loved.

But when something holds power, it can go both ways. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me? Bull. 

Some words can not just hurt - they can change the course of someone’s entire life.

Online dating. We've all heard a story - good or bad. It’s the way of the world now. You log on, upload your best pics, think of a few witty pickup lines and get swiping. And if you're lucky, you won’t be swiping too long, because the perfect person is right there at the tap of a button - without having to even leave the couch.

But how well can you really know someone before you’ve actually met them? How can you trust everything they’re telling you? Where they say they live, what their job is, or their true intentions?

The blindside. A simple term, but it can mean so much. It comes in many forms. There’s of course the good sort, where the unexpected is a welcome, happy surprise.

But, it can be a bad thing too. And For Sarah, there were other things she didn’t see coming. That other type of blindside that only other people experience. One that turns a seemingly dreamy life together, into a complete nightmare.

The trick to mastering manifestation is to speak what you seek until you see what you’ve said. And when the universe not only listens, but delivers, it is a truly powerful thing, which was exactly the case, for Jess.

But what is more powerful than manifestation at its best, dear listener? It’s that little thing called gut feeling. When everything seems perfect, but your intuition suggests otherwise. Sometimes it’s subtle, but other times it raises an internal alarm that cannot be ignored

And a heads up this episode mentions sexual and domestic violence - if you or someone you know needs help you can call 1800 RESPECT the national domestic, family and sexual violence counselling, information and support service.

Young love. Remember that?! Meeting someone at your part time hospo job where you’re together every night, you start making eyes at each other and one thing leads to another - soon, you’re spending the night at their family home and having dinner with their parents. Well that’s exactly how Emily met Josh.

And when you meet so young, it really only goes one of two ways. You either grow up and apart, or you grow together. Like Emily and Josh. After seven years, they knew each other like the back of their own hands and trusted each other implicitly. At not even 30 years old, life was only just beginning. Or was it more a case of it being the beginning of the end?
