]]> On Friday I was interviewed for a BBC World Service programme on love and marriage. It’s a great show covering the unexpected invention of speed-dating as well as historical and cross-cultural segments on marriage, divorce, non/monogamy, and same-gender relationships.

My bit is mostly based around the book Jacqui Gabb and I published last year: The Secrets of Enduring Love. Particularly we chat about how the historical situation of relationships in our current cultural context can make it more – rather than less – difficult for them to endure, and what we might be able to do about that.

Have a listen to the show here if you’re interested.

]]> Hey everyone. Here’s a new video interview with me chatting about various projects with Darya from Enrich TV, including my top relationships tips:

  1. Reflect on the cultural messages about relationships and how well they fit for you
  2. Consider treating all kinds of relationships as valuable, rather than prioritising romantic ones
  3. Recognise that separateness is as important as togetherness
  4. Practise being present to how things are now, remembering that everything changes over time
  5. Put sex in its place (wherever that is for you)

I hope you enjoy it…
