    S4 Episode 3

    Helen was married for 21 years. Nine months ago she found out about the affair and she left. Everyone told her she was doing the right thing and nobody argued. What she has now is a phone she checks too often and a friend called Denise who keeps telling her things she hasn't asked to know. He isn't at the house. He isn't working. He's on somebody's sofa twenty minutes away. And Helen lies awake at four in the morning wondering whether he's registered with a doctor, whether the car is taxed, whether his mother got a card in May. She has the cleanest permission anyone has ever been given to feel nothing at all, and she still can't stop. We talk about what that actually is, because Helen is right that it isn't love and it isn't guilt. It's the responsibility that quietly accumulates over twenty years, until you find out you weren't two adults running a house. You were running it and he was living in it. Then some of the unsent messages. The hoovering one. The two people who both froze. The woman who came home from karaoke and wished it had been him. And one that made Emma cheer.

    Bhavna Radia: Leaving the LA Law Dream

    Season 4 continues with Episode 2, an introduction to Bhavna Radia. Bhavna spent years as a divorce lawyer before moving into coaching, and she talks to us about where the early pull towards law came from, what happened when she went through her own divorce, and how she now works with women using both sides of that: the professional training and the lived experience of it. She also explains Mesher orders, which come up constantly and are understood by almost nobody until they're sitting in front of one. A Mesher order lets the family home stay unsold after a divorce, usually until the youngest child finishes education or turns eighteen, at which point it's sold and the proceeds split. It sounds like a solution and for some families it is, but Bhavna is clear about what it costs the person who stays in the house, and why it's worth understanding properly before agreeing to one. Then it's on to Unsent, the new thing Harry has been building. It's a place to send the message you wrote and never sent, the paragraph that sat in your drafts at two in the morning and stayed there. You write it, you send it to us, and it goes somewhere rather than nowhere. It's at dadhugsforyoursoul.com/unsent As we always say, if you're having relationship problems, going through a relationship breakup or experiencing heartbreak, then know this: we are with you.

    Jenny's Dating Dilemma

    Did you miss us? Or didn’t you notice we’d been gone? Well, nevermind because we are back!   We are kicking off season 4 with an interesting letter from Jenny who has been dipping her toe into dating and finding it’s stirring up more than just passion….   Jenny’s concerns are common, but maybe not openly discussed. We are here to blow the lid off the idea that everything must be perfect, and that your past should be completely forgotten.   In the second half of the podcast, we are delighted to be chatting to the wonderful Candida Crewe about her new novel, Disapproval, and how it was shaped in part by her own romantic experience with avoidant attachment and betrayal. You can find Disapproval on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Disapproval-Candida-Crewe/dp/1068527366 You can also ask your local bookshop to order you a copy.

    Snake on a Plane

    Back to the familiar format of a letter from a listener - and this one is another all to common theme. This week, we hear from Helen. Helen's story has a bit of everything: financial isolation, the slow unravelling of a long marriage, infidelity, divorce, and a turn none of us saw coming. It's a story about giving yourself entirely to a life and a person, and discovering how little of it was ever really yours. About the particular cruelty of being deceived by someone whose kindness you fell for. And about what happens when the life you thought you were grieving takes one final, shocking turn. But more than any of that, it's a story about meeting yourself again. About a woman who lost almost everything she thought defined her, and found, on the other side of it, something quieter and steadier and entirely her own. If you're rebuilding from a place you never expected to be, this one's for you. As we always say, if you're having relationship problems, going through a relationship breakup or experiencing heartbreak, then know this: we are with you. Because you can and will survive, heal and thrive. Everyone who appears on our podcast can take positive steps forward, and so can you.
