After Victoria's divorce the pair took a surfing trip to Costa Rica. Is there really value in 'finding yourself' abroad, or is it just something that people think they need to do?

Plus, Victoria explains why her lesson in love is not to give too much if you don't get it in return.

This week Olivia is joined by comedian and Griefcast host Cariad Lloyd to discuss grief in relationships. How can you help a partner who is grieving? What should you say to them and what should you definitely not say?

The duo discuss the complexities surrounding grief and explore why there's so much stigma surrounding it. Cariad also talks about why you shouldn't be surprised if a partner breaks up with you after losing someone close to them and how this doesn't necessarily mean your relationship is over for good.

Plus, she explains why the 'five stages of grief' is grossly misguided information and why there is no right time to move on after losing a partner.
