Too Old For This Sh*t

Courtney answers some of your submissions to the question: What is the biggest challenge being cooped with your partner & how are you handling it?” Courtney Boyer went from being a strong Evangelical Christian (aka no sex before marriage) to a Sex Educator helping other women discover and owning their desires whether in a marriage or not. In this episode we discuss living together, how to date better and how to address issues that arise in our relationships.

We go over:

// Her journey where she had to reassess her whole belief system into helping other women discover and owning their desires.

// What’s important in a partner, the mundane or how they feel about Trump?

// You’re your kids teacher, you’re worried about the rent/mortgage, all those added responsibilities/worries can be sex killers, so how do we deal with this now? Courtney explains to us how to not let it consume us.

// How to approach someone who’s homophobic? Is there anything we can do to open their minds?

// How to cope when living with your partner 24/7 in these uncertain times.

// What to do if you’re handling the pandemic differently to your partner.

// Are rich people happier right now? Does space really matter for the quality of our love life when cohabitating?

// How much do we need to talk things through with our partner? Is there such a thing as too much communication?

// How to talk it through without killing the libido?

// Bathroom etiquette.

// How to get over the guilt when arguing with your partner?

// You want to leave your partner but you’re in isolation, so now what?

How are we eating now? Have you lost your appetite or can’t stop eating? A candid chat about how Sarah and I are dealing with the situation, and the strategy we each took to be able to be there for others who need us. Oh, and she was a cop for 16 years!

*Content note: this episode discusses eating disorders, discretion is advised.*

We go over:

// How is this new normal affecting how you eat? Are you worried you will eat all of your quarantine stach?

// Are you exposed to other people’s anxieties whilst managing your own? That can have a compound effect that can feel really overwhelming.

// Are you processing this more privately whilst others are purging their anxiety onto you via social media, text and whatsapp groups and you’re not sure how to handle their emotions?

// What to do with all this time.

// The flip side of having the internet.

// My theory on why (a lot of) companies you work for don’t let you take more than 2 weeks off at a time.

// Parallel processing. How to be there for others when you’re dealing with it too, especially if you’re working to keep the country running (all hospital employees, police, mailman, and many more).

// Worry for your loved ones that you can’t visit.

Nic Scholtysik, founder of a Home Worth Having, is a designer on a mission to help others create that home that is true to them and/or their families.

We go over:

// What we want and need and how that influences your home and sense of belonging.

// What do we need to feel at home anywhere in the world?

// How we can achieve that even on a budget.

// Expat, immigrant, local, how do we all really feel?

// Our home needs to change with us, as we grow and evolve as people, the reflection of ourselves will change too. So how does this all tie into being expat/immigrant or what Nic has renamed being a local, and having a sense of belonging.

Tune in to see how.
