Sex, desire, dating & useful everyday buys that may change your life!

This week we asked expert couples psychotherapist Lucy Cavendish for her advice and shared the easy wins that boost our day - including a miracle wipe and a digestion boosting head torch!

Scenes from Midweek Waffle Central for you! This week for our two episodes of Postcards from Midlife podcast we interviewed the wise love, dating and couples coach Lucy Cavendish about the issues faced during long term relationships and then in our short bitesize episode on Wednesday (above) we shared some simple things which are cheap and affordable and we promise will make a big difference to daily life. This is the kind of wisdom you get when you hit your mid 50s and have tried out almost every kitchen or domestic-related wotnot!! We’ve also got advice on using Vinted well, the seasoning Trish can’t live without (clue it has MSG in it and it is GOOD for you), and Lorraine’s head torch trick.

Below are links to all the useful gadgets we mention and also all of Lucy’s advice which tackled relationship based challenges from how to tell when it is time to leave a marriage, how to cope with adultery, her experience dating a 29 year old man when she was in her mid 50s, how to navigate dating apps and why ‘learning to love yourself’ is NOT the key to being loved by a partner.
