Hey Lifers! It's time for your therapy Thursday. First up, the health minister of Hong Kong has an...unusual request to stop people from smoking. We're all about it. Vibes and Unsubscribes for the week: Keeshia: Julia Louis Dreyfus' podcast "wiser than me" here Laura: Unsubscribing from the ATO and indexation of HECS loans Britt: Squirt and mop... yeah. That's the vibe hereThe questions we unpack today are: My partner has thousands of dollars worth of sex toys that he's collected over years and years. Can I ask him to 'start fresh' or should I be okay with using the existing toys? My partner is not pulling his weight to support our family and often doesn't want to work. I'm getting the ick from his lack of ambition. Is this understandable or am I expecting too much? Note, we have one kid and another on the way I asked my boyfriend to block his ex-girlfriend on Instagram (a boundary of mine and not sure if this is a healthy boundary or not) and I’ve just found out that he’s gone out of his way to unblock her. Am I in the wrong for having asked or is he in the wrong for blatantly disrespecting my boundary?

Hello Lifers, We are back from holidays, Britt had her Invisalign stolen and Laura flashed her boob in Fiji. It's good to be back!  On today's episode we are talking purpose anxiety - but before we do we unpack the whole Jonah Hill saga and the Leaked texts from his ex. We ask the questions when does setting boundaries in a relationship look more like coercive control? Have you ever felt as though you have no idea what you want to do with your life? Or what brings you purpose or meaning?Perhaps you have an idea of what that purpose is, but you feel as though you're not achieving it,  Joining the podcast today is Sabina Read. Sabina is a psychologist, speaker and co-host of the Human Cogs podcast, and today we are talking about purpose anxiety. Sabina helps us unpack where we get a sense of purpose from and how it's probably not what we think it is.  We speak about: The difference between seeking validation and seeking purpose, The different aspects of life that you can get purpose from; it's not just career, a soulmate or parenthood, Privilege being intertwined with 'purpose' How much our 'blueprint' from when we are a kid impacts us You can check out all of Sabina's stuff here and her podcast here!

Hey Lifers, Today's special little ep is one that we promised a few weeks ago! Britt's boyfriend Ben jumped on the pod and they spoke a bit about their relationship and how they navigate long distance. (You can listen here!) Firstly, we finally hear Ben's thoughts on the shrine. Sorry for creating your longest running argument Britt... Then we find out a lot more about who Ben is and what it was like growing up in Switzerland and becoming a professional footballer (not soccer player; we listen and learn). -I matched with a guy on hinge and things were going really, really well. I was the first person that he'd been with since a bad break up a year ago. After a few weeks of everything going great, he's now become really "busy" when ever I try to make plans. I haven't seen him for 3 weeks. He tells me he likes me and likes hanging out with me. I've reassured him that I'm happy to take things slow because I really like him. -Is it always the case of "if he wanted to, he would" -How does an emotionally unavailable person become emotionally available?
