    Yours, Mine and Ours

    Yours, Mine and Ours

    They say, “When you know, you know”. But that doesn’t make the journey towards love and companionship any easier - especially when there are different parents and offspring involved. This episode explores the nuanced experience of being a step-parent, the complexities of raising a biracial family in New Zealand, and why there’s no such thing as “the right time” when it comes to love.

    The Crisis of Commitment and Relearning Optimism

    As the saying goes, there is a lid for every pot. But what happens when you lose your lid and find yourself, either voluntarily or unceremoniously, back in the dating pool? This episode is about divorce, our assumptions around marriage, the power of faith, solo-parenting, and how we can relearn optimism when it’s time to start dating again.

    Female Pleasure With Sexologist Chantelle Otten

    Why does female pleasure always feel like an after-thought? A frank conversation with an award-winning sexologist about sexual wellness, the miseducation around how men and women achieve pleasure, whether there is such a thing as “good porn”, the stigma that still surrounds female masturbation, and what Otten wants women to know about their right to pleasurable experiences.

    Dating and Disability Part 2

    Dating and Disability Part 2

    The fractious relationship we have with our appearance is one of those universal experiences that transcends race, gender and religion, and our insecurities usually bubble to the surface in the realms of dating and intimacy. For the 1 in 4 Kiwis living with a disability, this is only further complicated by the misconceptions held by those who are able-bodied.
