    What's Coming This Episode?

    Many of us are fortunate to, at some stage of life, find Mr or Mrs Right. Most of us, however, will have endured a rollercoaster of relationships prior to that special one. Why are we so often attracted to the people that we know are no good for us though?

    What's Coming This Episode?

    We're taught at an early age about bullies; either through direct experience or via classic tv and film portraits – think Bif from Back to the Future or Nelson from The Simpsons. In reality though, a bully won't disappear when you switch off the television or even when you go home from school or work. They follow you everywhere. So how do you combat them?

    Many are fortunate enough to be blessed with close a close family – one that sticks together through thick and thin. But what about those that don't share that closeness? Are we stuck with these relationships? Can we change them or should we ever cut our ties?

    What's Coming This Episode?

    History can often follow us around but sometimes we get to start afresh in a new place or with a new person. Still, we're left with the question of when, if ever, do we bring up our past. If it's a dark past, then that question becomes far more serious…

    This week we welcome friend of LITP Alex Latimer to the show. Alex tells us about how, over the past few years, made a few key changes to her life and began to live life in the present.

    Alex isn't living on a yacht off the coast of Monaco, nor is she travelling the world whilst thousands of pounds stream into her PayPal account each day. No, Alex has really cracked it and simply made some simple to how she worked and lived, changes that made huge differences to her life.
