One in four
Season 1 ¡ Episode 37
Thursday, January 21, 2021 ⢠Duration 31:44
How often do you hear honest stories about abortion in the mainstream media? How often do people talk openly about abortions theyâve had?
Today, weâre talking about abortions. Terminating a pregnancy is, still, a lasting taboo. And yet, despite the hushed tones and whispers that we use to discuss it with, between one in three and one in four Australian women have aborted a pregnancy. In this episode, we speak to one such woman - Pip - who is sharing her story in the hopes that it makes you feel a little less alone. Then, we hear from the experts at Marie Stopes Australia about why abortion access is crucial in helping women determine their own future.
A trigger warning for this one: this episode deals with issues surrounding abortion and may be triggering for some listeners.

Taking back a cheater
Season 1 ¡ Episode 28
Thursday, November 12, 2020 ⢠Duration 41:13
Do you believe the saying âonce a cheater, always a cheaterâ? If someone has been unfaithful before, does that mean theyâre destined to do it again and again? Or are humans more complicated - more capable of change - than that?
Today, weâre talking about taking back a cheater. How do you move past the fury? How do you ever trust them again? And how do you process the shame that society tells you you should feel? For the answers to those sticky questions, weâre turning to two women who have been there and done that - who were told the awful news that their partners had strayed but decided to stay; to stick it out and see what happened next.

Nightmare breakups
Season 1 ¡ Episode 27
Thursday, November 5, 2020 ⢠Duration 46:41
Most of us know the jagged contours of heartbreak. How they can slice your sense of self and see you crying into the nook of your couch for weeks. But what happens when that heartbreak is coupled with a nightmarish breakup - one so cruel and utterly bizarre that you question just about everything?
Today, weâre talking about nightmare breakups. To do that, weâll be hearing from three women who are still reeling from the fallout of theirs, even years down the line. Are there neat bows or easy lessons to take from any of these tales? Well, no. But maybe thatâs the point - sometimes in life and love, the experiences we have canât be explained away. All thatâs left to say about them is, well, âwhat the fuckâ?

Lockdown love
Season 1 ¡ Episode 25
Thursday, May 7, 2020 ⢠Duration 34:25
This is a bizarre time for the world. COVID-19 has been incredibly detrimental to the health of people right across the world, and has had massive impacts on the economy and job stability, too.
But what about love? Relationships? Sex? What has this pandemic done to the way to relate to each other?
That's precisely what we're exploring today. In this final episode of Love Etc season two, we share stories from YOU guys - and they're far more uplifting than we first imagined. Then, we hear from Lauren - a woman who found love on the cusp of it all.
Thank you so much for listening over the last three months - it has been such a joy to bring you all this podcast and telling your stories.

'I was the other woman'
Season 1 ¡ Episode 24
Thursday, April 30, 2020 ⢠Duration 38:20
Have you always wondered what motivates someone to be the other woman? Why they knowingly choose to be with someone who has a partner?
Today on the show we are talking to a woman who has been the other woman. It can be easy to demonise a person for knowingly dating someone who is in a relationship - after all, doesnât it just come down to values? we think - but of course, the world isnât as simple as that. So, today weâre talking to a woman called Michelle (yes, a different Michelle) who just happened to fall in love as she entered the police force with a man who had a girlfriend.

Life as a sex worker
Season 1 ¡ Episode 22
Thursday, April 16, 2020 ⢠Duration 33:30
Have you ever wondered what itâs like to work in the sex industry? Have you ever wondered how that work would read when it was eventually turned into a memoir?
Today, weâre interviewing the powerhouse that is Rita Therese. Hereâs the thing about Rita - sheâs widely renowned for being one of the most in-demand sex workers in Australia, yes, but sheâs also regarded as one of the countryâs rising artistic talents. Because as Ritaâs profile under her alias Gia James has grown, so too has has her profile as a prolific artist and writer.
This interview is actually from a couple of months ago - before the world turned weird and what we consider ânormalâ changed drastically. We still wanted to share it though, not only as an escape from whatâs going on, but to have a much-needed conversation around sex work and feminism, from a woman who isnât just an expert in the field, but in philosophy too.
At 26 Rita has just published her first book - a memoir called Come - which details her time in the sex industry as well a life of significant personal tragedy and trauma. Here, she tells us what sex work is actually like - even when she has struggled with what she calls âdebilitating social anxietyâ in the past.
If you loved this chat with Rita Therese, please do buy her new memoir Come. Itâs an arresting read, and unlike anything youâve probably come across before. We canât recommend it enough. You can also find her on Instagram @rita_therese__.

A story of emotional abuse
Season 1 ¡ Episode 21
Thursday, April 9, 2020 ⢠Duration 43:54
Content note: this episode deals with issues around emotional abuse and may be triggering for some listeners.
Today, weâre telling a story of emotional and psychological abuse.
In the midst of a global pandemic where so many of us are self-isolating at home with our partners, itâs more important than ever we recognise what an unhealthy, abusive relationship looks like. Too, itâs important that we can recognise the signs from afar, to look out for our friends and the people we love to make sure they arenât trapped or being controlled within the walls of their relationship.
If this episode brings up issues for you - or of you or someone you know is experiencing psychological abuse, you can contact 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732 or through their online chat.
