Everyone Has An Ex

Driving Me Crazy

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 19:15:00 +0000

Freedom—there’s nothing quite like it. Especially at the beginning of a new romance, when everything feels light, electric, and full of possibility.

But freedom can easily be taken for granted, overlooked or underappreciated. And like everything - there’s no guarantee it will last forever. And if or when that sense of freedom starts to slip away, the consequences don’t always just touch you, but start a ripple effect, affecting everything and everyone around you.

Not My Circus

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 19:15:00 +0000

Power is an interesting thing when it comes to relationships. It can be shared, moved around when life and circumstances change, it can even be kinda hot.

But the key to navigating different power dynamics is in balance.
So when a relationship starts with the scales very much one way, it can prove near impossible to shift it, and all of a sudden you can find yourself nowhere near the driver’s seat, and spinning out of control.

The Spy Who Shagged Me

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 18:15:00 +0000

There’s nothing quite like the instant connection you feel when you meet someone and just know they could be “your person.” It’s a bond that runs deep—felt emotionally, intellectually, and physically—so powerful that, together, you feel capable that you can conquer anything and everything.

But with a connection this strong, it’s easy to overlook a few signs—to give your person the benefit of the doubt…but that doesn’t mean everyone in your corner will see it the same way.

The First Time

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 18:15:00 +0000

What makes a perfect partner? Does the person you meet, catch feelings for and see a life with have to be perfect from the start? Or do you look at potential imperfections and think “I can fix them”? Especially when said imperfections are ones you have dealt with yourself?

That’s Jen. She’s what we’d call “a fixer”. The connection she had with Steve was strong enough that what others might perceive as red flags, she saw as things they could overcome. Together. No matter what it took.
But the problem with fixers is that they often fail to see what they’re losing in themselves, in trying to help the other person.

Game Over

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 18:15:00 +0000

Relationships can be a lot like games — you win some, you lose some, and just when you think you know the rules, they change. There are highs, lows, and the occasional plot twist you don’t see coming.

But the thing about games is when they’re over, you usually get a clean slate — a chance to reset and start again. But sometimes, just when it’s over… that’s when the real games begin.

All In Your Head

Tue, 10 Mar 2026 18:15:00 +0000

“In sickness and in health.”

Words usually reserved for traditional wedding vows — not the beginning of a relationship in your early twenties.
But for Lucy and Lars, that was exactly how their story began.

The thing about being sick in your twenties is that you carry an unshakable belief that you’ll bounce back. You’re young, after all.

But what happens when the illness lingers — an unsolved mystery that slowly takes over your life, your love, and the person you once were?

I Put A Spell On You

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 14:00:00 +0000

Communication is often touted as the number one maker or breaker of any relationship. And Ava and Aaron had it nailed.

So when open communication is the number one thing you’ve always had, what does it do to a relationship when all of a sudden, one party decides to keep something hidden? Literally hidden, under lock and key.

Invisible String

Tue, 11 Nov 2025 14:00:00 +0000

There are some love stories that just tug at the old heart strings. Nothing crazy, nothing dramatic, just old fashioned just boy meets girl, they fall in love, and the rest is history.

But the thing with fairytales is we never get the WHOLE story. Is there really such a thing as Happily Ever After … forever?

The Relationship Guy

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 14:00:00 +0000

The Relationship Guy. An elusive, rare breed in this day and age - the guy who loves being someone’s person, who wants and enjoys the simplicity and comfort of being with a partner - no questioning if he likes you, no wondering how long you should wait to text - no drama.

And once you’re at this level of comfort, it’s all smooth sailing. He’s The Relationship Guy, after all. Commitment and stability is his whole thing. Or....is it?

In Two Minds

Tue, 28 Oct 2025 14:00:00 +0000

Patterns. They’re what keep us grounded — the familiar rhythms that shape our routines and relationships. When they’re good, they bring comfort, joy, and a sense of home. And honestly, you just can’t get enough of them.

But the thing about patterns is — not all of them are good. Some sneak up on you, starting small, barely noticeable at first. Then, before you realise it, they’ve taken hold — and suddenly, your whole life feels like it’s been turned upside down.

Light Bulb Moment

Tue, 21 Oct 2025 14:00:00 +0000

Religion. We often talk about the role it plays in a relationship - two people coming from different backgrounds with different beliefs. But when you find the right person, differences in belief systems don’t mean a thing, if you know you want to be together.

So when a relationship starts - and progresses - with that being the only difference, you’d never expect it to be something else entirely that blows up your relationship - and ultimately, your life.

Everywhere You Go

Tue, 14 Oct 2025 14:00:00 +0000

Sometimes in life, you might feel like you’re missing a certain something but not be up for the fuss and mess and commitment that a real relationship may bring. Enter the situationship. A bit of fun with a nice person who makes you feel good, no strings attached.

But life often has its way of making even them messy. Sometimes it’s because of feelings getting involved. Sometimes it’s because it’s harder to get out of than expected. And sometimes, it’s because it turns out to not be the fun-loving easy-going situation you thought you were getting.

Sorry, Not Sorry

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 14:00:00 +0000

First love - remember that? The innocent fun, the inseparability, the rush of emotions, and all those unforgettable firsts. For Suzy and John, that was exactly what it was like.

The thing about first love is that one of the “firsts” is the breakup - a rite of passage, but never an easy one. But what happens when you go through two breakups at once? One with your ex, and another with someone you never imagined could…or should.. break your heart.

Losing My Religion

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 15:00:00 +0000

Belief systems run deep within us, etched into our nature and reinforced through our upbringing. We are moulded by the adults who surround us, people who, often with the best of intentions, shape our understanding of the world and pass down the lessons of life.

But sometimes, the very truths you were raised on harden into lies, and you’re left with no choice but to unlearn them, because your survival, your very sense of self, depends on it.

Cruel Intentions

Tue, 23 Sep 2025 15:00:00 +0000

When friendship turns into love, it feels less like a leap and more like coming home. There is risk in crossing that line, but when it works, love born from friendship carries a rare intimacy - and that was the case for Simone and Antony.

But when lovers turn into strangers, it’s the most painful and quiet heartbreak of all. That person you knew so intimately, relied on so heavily, was now someone who you didn’t really know at all

Gotta Have Faith

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 15:00:00 +0000

Matchmaking: we've all attempted it, and we've all probably been set up before. But when you enlist the help of professionals, they just might deliver exactly what you've been looking for. At least, that's what happened for Liv and Ali.

But, dear listener, matchmaking is a game of two halves. How you look on paper is only surface level, and when you scratch that surface, surprises await. Some are good, some are indifferent, and some you never saw coming.

Tue, 09 Sep 2025 20:00:00 +0000

Starting fresh. It’s a wonderful, scary and exciting thing. You can leave an old life behind and start discovering a whole new way of living, new experiences, finding new people and finding yourself.

But while those new experiences may seem fun and exciting in the beginning, they can take a dark and dangerous turn.

Think Twice

Tue, 27 May 2025 20:00:00 +0000

We’ve all heard the saying: if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. But isn’t that a terrible way to look at life? Because if you go into everything with negativity, you might miss the best thing that could ever happen.

But, dear listener, the saying is a saying for a reason. What if sometimes when your gut is telling you this may all be just TOO good… it is?

Soft Launch

Tue, 20 May 2025 20:00:00 +0000

Moving in together. Some do it quickly, some choose to wait a while. For Fiona and Steve, it was the former, wasting no time in creating their own special memories and routines. Plus, it really is the best way to really get to know someone.

But even though you share a space, there are always places to hide secrets. Secrets that when found, will have you questioning whether you ever really knew that person at all.

What would you do, Dear Listener, if you found out something about your partner that changed the very fabric of your relationship, at a point when you felt you were too far in? Would you cut and run, or would you trust the fact you’ve now found out and try to move on?

So maybe you do keep moving forward. Maybe you move forward for six years. But through and after it all, it turns out what you’d thought was the issue didn’t even scratch the surface.

Family Ties

Tue, 06 May 2025 20:00:00 +0000

When it comes to relationships, there are great relationships, terrible relationships, broken relationships and all those relationships in between.

But there’s another kind we don’t talk about that often. Perhaps because it’s not really a relationship? It's the situationship.

While not having a title, they can be just as intense, confusing, all consuming and chaotic as something more official. Just ask Amanda.

Breaking Free

Tue, 29 Apr 2025 19:30:00 +0000

It’s often said women have a sixth sense. Our guts are strong and can play a big part in whether we trust someone or not.

But a gut instinct isn’t evidence. Can our bodies play tricks on us? We can choose to ignore, to live with the icky feelings or, we can confront them head on? That was the question Claire had to keep asking herself for almost 4 years.

Not every relationship is perfect. Christ, none are really! But some are far less perfect than others.Unfortunately, though she didn’t really see it at the time, that was the one Alice found herself in.

But she loved him. Isn’t that what we so often hear? You let things slide, you ignore the little things in pursuit of more of the great times.

But what about when they’re not just little things anymore, but instead something really, really big?

We all know what they say — if there are question marks or gut feelings early on in a relationship, it’s probably because it’s not the right one. Your match should be someone with who you have no doubts. It should be easy.

But sometimes even the best, strongest and happiest relationships can carry secrets. Some small and insignificant in the scheme of things. But others, no matter how hard they’ve been hidden, once out can destroy everything.

Trust. It’s the pillar of any relationship — romantic or not. That’s what Indy believes. She also thinks there’s no reason NOT to give it out when you first meet someone.

But others would disagree, arguing trust should be earned. That, Indy reckons, is just going into life with a negative attitude and nobody’s got time for that. So what could possibly happen to make someone with her shiny outlook do a complete 180?

There are many great loves women can find in their lives. Best friends, sisters, ‘The One’, the one who got away and of course, the gay best friend.

It really is a love like no other. And because it’s a friendship, deep and fulfilling but platonic, it doesn’t have the same pressures as a romantic relationship. Nothing could ever come between you, or change what you have. Until, it does.

No Place Like Home

Tue, 05 Nov 2024 18:30:00 +0000

Acceptance. We all crave it and it makes us feel good. But it feels extra special when it comes at a time in need and from someone who you immediately fancy and this was the case when Sacha met Jay.

But the thing about acceptance is that when you have it, it’s something you’re scared to lose. Even if what originally felt so good, starts to feel isolating and….off. And what once felt safe, feels very, very scary.

Fear & Loathing

Tue, 15 Oct 2024 18:30:00 +0000

A heads up: this episode deals with serious themes including domestic violence, coercive control and suicide. Listener discretion is advised.

We always hear how great a relationship is when it begins. Why else would it, right? There’s butterflies, late nights staying up talking, a sense of belonging, desire and comfort. Having that one person to plan life with and who’s just desperate to have you around all the time.

But what about when that desperation becomes too much and starts looking and feeling more like … control? And then that control becomes worrying .. and scary … and dangerous?

Soldier On

Tue, 01 Oct 2024 19:30:00 +0000

Online dating. We've all heard a story - good or bad. It’s the way of the world now. You log on, upload your best pics, think of a few witty pickup lines and get swiping. And if you're lucky, you won’t be swiping too long, because the perfect person is right there at the tap of a button - without having to even leave the couch.

But how well can you really know someone before you’ve actually met them? How can you trust everything they’re telling you? Where they say they live, what their job is, or their true intentions?

Blindside

Tue, 24 Sep 2024 19:00:00 +0000

The blindside. A simple term, but it can mean so much. It comes in many forms. There’s of course the good sort, where the unexpected is a welcome, happy surprise.

But, it can be a bad thing too. And For Sarah, there were other things she didn’t see coming. That other type of blindside that only other people experience. One that turns a seemingly dreamy life together, into a complete nightmare.

Watch Out

Tue, 17 Sep 2024 19:00:00 +0000

The trick to mastering manifestation is to speak what you seek until you see what you’ve said. And when the universe not only listens, but delivers, it is a truly powerful thing, which was exactly the case, for Jess.

But what is more powerful than manifestation at its best, dear listener? It’s that little thing called gut feeling. When everything seems perfect, but your intuition suggests otherwise. Sometimes it’s subtle, but other times it raises an internal alarm that cannot be ignored

And a heads up this episode mentions sexual and domestic violence - if you or someone you know needs help you can call 1800 RESPECT the national domestic, family and sexual violence counselling, information and support service.

Double Trouble

Tue, 10 Sep 2024 20:00:00 +0000

Young love. Remember that?! Meeting someone at your part time hospo job where you’re together every night, you start making eyes at each other and one thing leads to another - soon, you’re spending the night at their family home and having dinner with their parents. Well that’s exactly how Emily met Josh.

And when you meet so young, it really only goes one of two ways. You either grow up and apart, or you grow together. Like Emily and Josh. After seven years, they knew each other like the back of their own hands and trusted each other implicitly. At not even 30 years old, life was only just beginning. Or was it more a case of it being the beginning of the end?

Mon, 09 Oct 2023 14:00:29 +0000

The age of online dating. It certainly has its ups and downs. Sure, it takes away a bit of that face-to-face connection you’d get meeting someone at a bar. But it also means you don’t have to be in the same bar as someone to meet them. There’s a whole world full of options right at your fingertips. And it allowed Sophie to meet Stelios.

And it’s a normal way to meet someone. Gone are the days of being concerned about creeps lurking in dark rooms on their keyboards, or embarrassment about connecting with someone through a screen. These days, you know who people are when you speak to them online...don’t you?

In Plain Sight

Mon, 25 Sep 2023 15:00:42 +0000

They say love is blind, but do we ever really listen? Because in those first precious moments with a new love, where you’re sharing stories, trading secrets and talking for hours on end, you truly think there’s nothing that will shake that unbreakable bond. And that was the case for Rachel and Ben.

But dear listener, no matter how many hours you spend talking, or how many truths be told, can you ever really truly know someone? Because some parts will always remain hidden…sometimes in deep, dark corners….and sometimes, in plain sight, just waiting to be found.

CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains extremely adult themes, dealing with drug use and suicidal ideation and child abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

Obsession

Mon, 04 Sep 2023 15:00:10 +0000

Love bombing. We’ve all heard of it. When, right at the start of a relationship, one party bombs the other with so much love, attention and romance, the other just can’t resist.

And for Stella, there was even an added layer that it came from her high school sweetheart.

But while those seemingly innocent gestures may make you feel warm and sparkly in the beginning, there’s nothing innocent about them at all. That love and attention turns into control and manipulation…and the romance, into gaslighting and abuse.

One & Only

Mon, 21 Aug 2023 15:00:10 +0000

Urban Myths. A story or statement that is not true, but is often repeated and believed by many. Some people believe the idea of a soul mate to be one of these urban myths. That there’s one person on this planet meant for each of us. Well according to Steve, this concept was as real as they come.

But what about that other urban myth….you know the one where you put a frog in a pot of water and when you gradually heat it, the frog will stay there, not realising it’s getting hot until it boils to death. Small changes that build up to big ones and by that stage, you just don’t know how to get out…

Ghost Story

Mon, 07 Aug 2023 15:00:30 +0000

America. The land of the free. There’s always been an unofficial rite of passage for single Aussie twenty-somethings to live it up in the country that rom-coms and Sex & The City made oh-so-appealing. But as the age old story goes, isn’t it always the way that when you plan on being single, the universe has other ideas.

But the thing about stories is that they can take on many forms. And sometimes, what may start out as a love story, can oh so suddenly, turn into a ghost story.

When You Know, You Know

Mon, 17 Jul 2023 15:00:33 +0000

We all know the old saying “when you know, you know”- that when you find your soulmate the love grows steadily and organically, there’s no drama and things are just….easy. Well that was the textbook romance of Ali and Jules.

And when you embark on a life together filled with big dreams and endless possibilities, in the back of your mind you always know there will be challenges along the way. Most of those challenges are small and insignificant, but then you get one…just one, that is so cruel and unexpected, your world changes in an instant.

Never Have I Ever

Mon, 03 Jul 2023 15:00:42 +0000

A question for you Dear Listeners, Can men and women….just be friends? It’s a debate as old as time. And in any new relationship, a male best friend can be a bone of contention, which was exactly the case for Emily and Ben….when it came to Emily’s best mate, Chris.

But isn’t the main argument FOR men and women being friends that if they wanted to be together, they would be? Ben had nothing to worry about. Emily and Chris were just the best of friends. Emily loved Ben and she would never lie to him….would she?

Twice Bitten

Mon, 19 Jun 2023 15:00:39 +0000

Relationships can teach us a lot. Where our bar sits, how we want to be treated, what we’re into and what we’re not. But it’s often when a relationship fails we learn even more. Sam found that out the hard way.

So you should be able to take those lessons into the next relationship, learning from past mistakes and being more confident in what you want. Right?

But anyone who’s had an ex knows that’s often easier said than done…

He's All That

Mon, 05 Jun 2023 15:00:17 +0000

Did you know, dear listeners, there was - not that long ago - a time before the internet? Before people met on Tinder or e-harmony, or sliding into each other’s DMs. A time when two people actually met in person before deciding if they wanted to be together! Well it was way back then when Luke met and fell in love, with Lucy.

But of course then the internet did come along, bringing new ways to connect, new ways to explore the world and new ways of finding out what’s really going on behind closed doors.

Three's A Crowd

Mon, 22 May 2023 15:00:02 +0000

Some couples just have it all, don’t they? The house, the dog, the two beautiful children and an amazing, close friendship group to share it all with.

But of course, any relationship has its moments over time. People can become complacent, find themselves bored of the day-to-day, sometimes, one of them may even stray. But a little bump in the road in an otherwise happy and fulfilling life together was something Sally thought she and husband Dave could surely overcome…or so she thought.

ENCORE: LISTENER FAVOURITE #1 - SEALED WITH A KISS

Sun, 13 Feb 2022 14:05:24 +0000

The Australian dream. Your own home, a loving husband and two beautiful children all by the age of 30. That is the dream… right? Well sometimes, even for those who DO dream of exactly that, even when they’ve got it, it still doesn’t feel quite right. This is the story of Kate. Despite having everything she thought she’d ever wanted, she always felt there was something missing. Now of course she eventually found that something. But no one - not Kate, not her husband, nor her family and friends expected that something to be front page news.

Sun, 13 Feb 2022 14:04:18 +0000

Bec had met the love of her life, her forever guy who was slated as the future father of her children. His only flaw; his “psycho ex”. For 6 years, Bec endured threats, harassment and abuse at the hands of the “psycho ex”. An explosive account of delusion, deception and being blind-sided by the person you love the most.

Susie and Todd were newlyweds, deeply in love and in the throes of planning their lives together. But these plans were dramatically cut short when a week after stepping off the plane from their honeymoon, a cruel twist of fate saw Todd lose his life, leaving Susie a widow at 30. A tale of heartbreak and healing when life throws its biggest of curveballs.

Sun, 13 Feb 2022 14:02:30 +0000

Falling in love. There is no greater feeling. What starts slowly, suddenly happens all at once...and then bang. You have it. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, all-consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love. Now, we might joke about love being inconvenient, but for Jaimie, that's exactly what it was. A love that was so inconvenient she had to quit her job, move countries, combat racism and defend the man she loved against pre-conceived stereotypes to those closest to her. A clash of cultures that drew two people together yet tore them apart.

ENCORE: LISTENER FAVOURITE #5 - ADDICTED TO YOU

Sun, 13 Feb 2022 14:01:31 +0000

When you know, you know. How many times have we heard those words in reference to meeting THE ONE, The love of your life, your lobster... or in Kate and Josh’s case, your LOMFL (that's Love Of My F**king Life for those playing at home). But what happens when that impenetrable love bubble is burst by an all-consuming seductress that’s more powerful than love itself? No, it’s not another woman. It’s not even another man. It was something much, much darker.

Tiny Dancer

Mon, 06 Sep 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Do you remember that feeling of your first love? Being head over heels at such a young age, but you knew this was it. It was real. Your love was even stronger than the famed Montague and Capulet. That was Manni and Rachel. Many of us grow up and grow out of our first loves. But, theirs never changed. Not because they grew together and fell more in love over the years, but because it never got the chance to grow and was forever halted in time.

Foreign Exchange

Mon, 30 Aug 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Love in another language. Is there anything more romantic? Being swept off your feet by a foreigner, sexy accent, mysterious background and all. With Hans, Belle had all that and more. But the mystery behind having different backgrounds isn’t always all good. Because when you come from totally different worlds and don’t know the other’s home life, the romance of mystery can quickly turn sour.

Fix You

Mon, 23 Aug 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Some relationships are strong on their own. Others are only strengthened when those nearest and dearest refuse to accept it. And that was the case for Chloe and Lucy. Despite the pain they suffered by not being accepted, they always had each other. But sometimes taking away a loved one’s pain, can turn into a full time job and no matter how hard you try and how much you try and fix relationships around you, it’s yours that can suffer the most.

Love strikes when we least expect it. And when it does, it’s all consuming, you’re living in your own bubble and it really is just like the movies. That’s exactly what it was like for Michelle and James.

And much like the movies, in every relationship, there are always tests and challenges before you get to the happy ending. Some are right in front of you and then there’s the ones you never saw coming at all.

Love & Other Drugs

Mon, 09 Aug 2021 15:00:00 +0000

You know those “no one else understands” relationships? The ones friends and family all say is wrong, but the two people in it just know better. They don’t need anyone else to get it! They’re the ones in it, and they’re happier than ever, no matter what anyone says. That was Marie and Michael.

But how often do you hear these relationships end up crashing and burning? Maybe it’s because love is blind. When you’re in it, you simply can’t see the forest for the trees. But eventually, reality always sets in.

Forever Young

Mon, 19 Jul 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Teenage romance. Is there anything sweeter? Butterflies in the tummy, sneaking out of the house to see each other, the magic of a first kiss. But many teen romances are just that. Few survive into adulthood, let alone become lifelong. But those that do? They’re extra magical.

But long term relationships, especially those that span 27 years, are hard. And even when you’ve known someone almost your entire life…do you ever really know them?

The Point Of No Return

Mon, 12 Jul 2021 15:00:00 +0000

When it comes to great relationships, what often makes them so great is that they’re built on the solid foundation of friendship. Because there's nobody you’d support, protect and love more than your best friend, right? And that was the case for Hannah and Pete. But the thing about any friendship, is that no matter how much time you spend with them and how much trust you’ve built, there are often still secrets that are never shared. Some are small, some are insignificant and some….will change the course of your lives forever.

It’s the 2020’s, dear listeners. We know love stories these days don’t come from spotting each other across a room, a surprise flower delivery from a secret admirer, nor an introduction from a friend. No. Romances these days are made on reality TV. Like Jake and Megan’s.

But the thing about these types of romances, is that when the cameras stop rolling and the actual reality of life takes over, what you thought was paradise can very quickly turn into complete pandemonium.

Every relationship has its ups and downs. Whether you’re Jane and Joe Blow or Prince Harry and Meaghan Markle, no relationship is perfect. Except Rachael and Matt’s. They were in their 30s, both totally secure in who they were and what they wanted, loved each other’s friends and family and had total open communication from day dot. The recipe for a great, long, strong partnership. So how then in the space of 6 months, did it go from being a blissful, love-up lifestyle to claiming you'd rather DIE than stay together?

But what happens when what has always felt like home, starts to feel completely foreign? When you can’t quite put your finger on what’s changed or why? And when that one person who once told you everything, locks the front door and just won't let you in.

BONUS: Human Cogs Presents - Georgia Love Has An Ex

Thu, 17 Sep 2020 15:00:00 +0000

In this very special bonus episode, we are re-publishing an interview that Psychologist, Sabina Read and her pod-partner, Journalist, Madeleine Grummet conducted with our very own Georgia Love about her ex, for their podcast, Human Cogs.

You'll remember Sabina from our last bonus episode. Our brilliantly insightful guest who delved deep into the psychology of the common themes from Season 1. Well, Sabina was also pretty interested in the psychology behind why someone who's happily engaged, spends all their spare time making a podcast about people's breakups and it turns out, Georgia has an ex story too.

For the first time since that breakup five years ago, the mic has been turned and Georgia re-opens those old wounds and shares her very personal story.

Humans Cogs brings you conversations that inspire and delight by bringing extraordinary ordinaries into the light. Our guests take us deep to explore universal human truths, start the candid conversations we need to have, and get beneath the skin to the real things that make us who we are. Hosted by renowned psychologist and media contributor Sabina Read, and award-winning entrepreneur and journalist Madeleine Grummet, each episode features real conversations with extraordinary guests who reveal what makes them tick, share lessons on living and loving well, and challenge what we think we know about ourselves, each other and the world around us. Human Cogs is a point of connection for us all – celebrating and reflecting on the things that bring us together, and the things that tear us apart.

BONUS: The Psychology of Relationships with Sabina Read

Mon, 17 Aug 2020 15:00:00 +0000

In this bonus episode, Georgia Love speaks with Psychologist, Sabina Read, about the common themes that led to heartbreak and hope in Season 1 and unpack the "why's". Why do people cheat? Why do people lie? Why do men tend to move on quicker than women after a break up? How can you best deal with break up grief? And why did some of you have certain reactions to some of our ex stories and not others? Sabina offers an insightful, thought-provoking and intelligent point of view that will provide perspective and challenge the way you think about relationships.

Sabina is a Psychologist, Media Commentator, Speaker, Facilitator and also the Co-host on a wonderful new podcast called Human Cogs, which shares the real, raw, and very human stories of extraordinary ordinaries and we highly recommend you subscribe via Spotify!
