#83: 10 conversations you have to have before getting engaged or married

**TRIGGER WARNING: Domestic violence**
This week, we answer a listener query. Her boyfriend has slept with over 100 women and her 'number' is only 3 – is this cause for concern, and why does she feel "icky" about it? 
We also mark domestic violence awareness month (this October) by giving some helpful numbers out, and talking through some of the statistics around it. Scary listening, but worth mentioning to bring awareness and hopefully help someone in need (if you are in a position to donate, here is the link). Here are some helpful addresses and phone numbers should you be affected by anything in today's episode:

#82: Does your 'number' matter? (*Trigger warning in description*)

This week Aisling and Andrea discuss a new dating term that Aisling maintains she's been talking about for years (of course) which is the concept of 'cushioning'. Overlapping partners, basically, to cushion the emotional blow that moving between relationships can bring. We also give our best advice about how to break up with someone with respect and kindness, as well as detailing some of our own worst break ups.

#81: How to break up with someone (properly)

This week's episode is packed full of insights thanks to our guest, relationship coach Lisa McFarland. We talk about attachment styles, conflict styles and love languages among many other topics, and hopefully you'll venture online and take a test or two to see what you and your partner's attachment styles are and how you can understand each other better.
You can find Lisa McFarland @relationship.coaching.ni on Instagram and at relationshipcoachni.com

#80: Is your attachment style ruining your relationship?

This week on Private Education, we have a really candid and honest chat with Andrew Fitzsimons – Khloe Kardashian's close confidant and hair stylist – about growing up in Ireland as a gay man, trust issues in relationships and healing yourself before you can share your life with someone else. Andrew spoke so beautifully about his client Mariah Carey (!!) and how he "does not accept" that she's labelled a diva because she's professional and knows what she wants. A chat we really enjoyed having and editing, we hope you enjoy too.
Big thanks to Amy for organising this interview, and you can follow Andrew @andrewfitzsimons or @andrewfitzsimonshair.
