Episode 45 - CHEATING - Em Rata showed us that *anyone* can get cheated on. How can you build a bullet proof relationship that will avoid infidelity?
In light of the recent news that beautiful specimen Em Rata got cheated on, the whole world is shouting 'WTF'... and we are too. People are thinking - if it could happen to her, then it could happen to anyone, and are any of us truly safe from the big bad concept of infidelity and a partner being unfaithful?
It is thought that 1 in 4 adults are unfaithful at some point in their life and in today’s episode, Louise & clinical psychologist Dr Tari Mack go deep into why people cheat, but perhaps more importantly and interestingly - how you can build a relationship that will withstand the likelihood of infidelity.

Episode 42 - DATING - The fearful avoidant attachment style, how to communicate without being toxic and how to know if your partner is ever going to change
The attachment style - fearful avoidant, also known as ‘disorganized’ is often overlooked. Do you feel like you want to be close to people and want their love, but when you get close, you feel like it is a dangerous space to be in? Maybe you push people away before they can push you away, but deep down want to be and feel loved? Did you experience deeply stressful, neglectful or abusive situations as a child?
Episode 41 - DATING - Are they poor at communication or are they avoidantly attached? Exploring the Avoidant Attachment Style
Ever dated an avoidant man or woman? They disappear when conflict starts or a conversation heats up? You feel like you get close to them, but never quite fully there? Maybe you are one yourself and other people feel ‘too needy, too much’, or that being independent and alone is safer and less hectic.
Maybe you don't see the point in talking about your feelings, don't like to depend on others for help, think relationships are a lot of work or just prefer 'being mysterious?'
