161. Keeping sex alive in a long-term relationship.
Anna forgets that moving countries is not an easy affair. Just like having babies and other life-changing events, she has forgotten about past experiences. The girls had a sliding doors moment both 'Lasses' were almost in Budapest at the same time.
One day they will be in the same place, at the same time and record an in-person podcast.
Love Desk: Tinder now allows friends and families to recommend matches for you ... is this a step too far? Time will tell, the girls have some reservations.
Hot Topic: Keeping sex alive in a long-term relationship.
Anna's trying to switch to a different hot topic but Sara is keeping her honest and on track (not an easy job ...)
The shift from sex to no sex is like a train that speeds past the station without realising it has happened. In long-term relationships, it's a hot topic indeed, as we get distracted by life and often move out of the habit of regular sex which is difficult to reverse and even trickier to discuss with our significant others.
Question: "My girlfriend and I have different values and beliefs. Is it possible to still have a good relationship without compromising who we are and giving up on our values?"
Yes, maybe, maybe not ..... values are difficult to gauge when considering the future impact. Some values may feel like a non-negotiable, for example, the decision to have children, but others may move and shift over time. You might start to see your partner's perspective more and your values may become more aligned over time.
Great chat as ever, Sara's feeling calm and confident about her trip to Budapest. She's element ready with a new winter coat and Anna's giving her top tips on the local spirits. Let's hope she makes it back for the next recording.
Till next time!

160. How does spitefulness show up in your relationship?
Anna's started paddling in Athens, so far she's not attracted the emergency or law enforcement officers but she had had men offering to carry her board. We are saying nothing! Sara's been enjoying pick and mix at the cinema and her love affair with food.
Love Desk: It's a food-related love desk .... tune in to find out what and why.
Hot Topic: How does spitefulness show up in your relationship?
Ouch, are you ready for this? There are more ways than you think to be spiteful in your relationship, they might not be obvious to start with but listen further to see if you are being unconsciously spiteful.
Question: "My partner and I seem to disagree on everything lately. How can we work through conflicts and disagreements in a healthy way, and prevent them from causing bigger problems down the road?"
The thing you think you're arguing about is never the thing. It's harder often to get below the daily arguments and bickering to uncover what's happening.
Raising even more awareness this week, lots to explore and work on for all of us.
Till next time!

159. How would guaranteed success in your relationship impact what you do?
External forces are trying to interfere with the podcast, this will give Anna a run for her money when it comes to editing. Sara is waving lyrical about her new kitchen gadget, we will never get her out of the kitchen.
Love Desk: Dating across the salary divide! One influencer has caused a stir by stating she will not date below her salary.
Hot Topic: How would guaranteed success in your relationship impact what you do?
Would this have a positive or negative impact on your relationship? Would it ease the doubt or would you slack off and not put the effort in you need to?
Question: "I've been feeling really insecure in my relationship lately. How can I identify and address my own insecurities, and what can I do to improve my relationship as a result?"
Anna is fired up and ready to go after today's pod recording. Sara's off to reset and Anna is entertaining visitors from Canada. Will they get her firey side and will Google Translate let her down .....
Till next time!

Love Desk: Mercury and Retrograde are causing a shadow across relationships right now, listen in to get some tips on what to do to avoid this disruption. The storm won't last forever, you can always make it sunny even when it's raining!
Hot Topic: Common causes of low confidence in relationships
Confidence can show up in many ways. It may be your different levels of confidence or the confidence you feel in the future of your relationship together. Tough love won't cut it here. It's to start caring about your relationship and your partner.
Question: "I've been with my partner for a while now, but I'm starting to feel like the spark is gone. What should I do if I feel like I'm losing interest in my partner, and how can I reignite that passion in our relationship?"
So common, that your relationship will not sustain the highs of the honeymoon. It simply isn't possible. It's time to put some new goggles on are see your partner in a new light. We are overstimulated in society and this is causing us all to become disconnected, from ourselves and our partners. It is possible to take steps to start to lean back into your love again.
Good conversation from the girls today. Sara's dumbfounded that they still haven't met, and that Anna is now in a hairs whisper from Sara. That in-person pod recording is closer than you think!
Till next time!
