In this deeply emotional and brutally honest episode, Tatiana sits down with married couple Jacky & Eleanor to explore their five-year battle to start a family: three miscarriages, three rounds of IVF, DNA fragmentation, surgery, over £50k spent, and the miracle pregnancy that finally changed everything. From Jacky's past as a world-touring DJ fuelled by drugs, alcohol and afterparties, to the moment he realised he had to rebuild his entire life to become a father, this conversation goes far beyond fertility touching on love, addiction, shame, sex, resilience and staying together when everything keeps falling apart. Eleanor opens up about chemical pregnancies, being hospitalised from fertility medication, discovering PCOS and immune issues years into their journey, and the silent heartbreak of watching everyone else’s baby announcements while grieving her own losses. Together, they share how everything they endured inspired them to create Aloomah Fertility an online fertility community and podcast supporting both partners, especially men who are so often overlooked in infertility conversations.

Came out at 32. Thought he’d wasted 12 years. Now he runs Attitude Magazine and Rolling Stone UK - and has Elton John on speed dial.

In this episode I sit down with Darren Styles OBE, who talks openly about the years he spent hiding who he was before finally stepping into himself. We discuss the twelve-year journey it took to convince Elton John to do a feature, the wild and chaotic reality behind some magazine shoot VPLs (visible penis lines), and the real work and honesty that marriage can demand.

This is a conversation about identity, courage, pride, and loving yourself enough to become who you were always meant to be.

Believe in yourself, always. 🏳️‍🌈✨

This week I’m joined by the incredible singer Deina for a conversation that flows from star signs and energies (including why my Capricorn self and my Leo boyfriend might not be the most compatible 👀), to the unfiltered truths of a girls’ group chat, and the creative process behind her EP and upcoming album. Deina also takes us behind her lyrics - unpacking the stories, emotions, and moments that shaped her music. It’s equal parts astrology tea & music inspo!

What do you do when you hit 42, walk away from a 20-year marriage, and suddenly find yourself back on Hinge wondering what on earth “vibes” and “icks” are?

If you’re Ellie McKay, you reinvent yourself completely and the old version of you would probably be horrified.

In this episode, Ellie spills the tea on everything: from millionaire to homeless, telling her kids about the divorce, dating in midlife, why so many people settle for mediocre (and why she refuses to), and the wild ride of falling in love with her boss. We dive into sex parties, postnatal depression, self-development, and the chaos of working with your mum (spoiler: don’t do it).

Ellie is hilarious, brutally honest, and refreshingly real. This conversation will make you laugh, maybe blush, and definitely think twice about where you’re playing it safe in your own life.

In this episode, we go far beneath the surface, exploring what it really means to be a woman, the tangled layers of family relationships, and the personal cost of choices around career and children. Ingrid shares candidly about panic attacks during intimacy, the lingering weight of never feeling “good enough,” and how her bond with her mother shifts when distance is part of the equation. Together, we dive into the “Love, Lust, Learn” theory, why consent must be taught and reinforced, and the ways silence around “no” can ripple into adulthood. It’s a conversation about identity, resilience, and redefining worth through music, memory, and the stories we’re brave enough to tell. You may find some of these issues troubling.

In this conversation, I sit down with Suzanne Noble, creator of Sex Advice for Seniors, to explore the unexpected twists and turns of later-life sexual discovery. Suzanne opens up about her unconventional journey—from spending two years having only threesomes, to facing friends’ concerns about whether she was bordering on sex addiction.

We dive into the realities of intimacy as we age: vaginal dryness, the liberating truth that sex doesn’t stop in our later years, and the role of vaginal estrogen in women’s sexual health. Suzanne also shares deeply personal stories—being divorced, losing two long-term partners, and embracing a non-monogamous lifestyle. Along the way, we talk French swinging clubs, clothing-optional towns, and a few cheeky hotel room scandals.

This episode is a fearlessly frank look at desire, resilience, and joy at any age—and a reminder that the adventure doesn’t end just because the candles on the cake keep adding up.

In this conversation, Lauren shares her story — one marked by pain, survival, strength, and the kind of honesty that takes your breath away. We talk about the hidden patterns of abuse: how easy it is to get caught in them, how hard it is to leave, and how those experiences leave lasting marks on our hearts, our relationships, and our sense of self. Lauren speaks with such bravery about the moments that broke her, the red flags she missed, and the fight to trust herself again all whilst having two gorgeous children. We also open up about the everyday realities of healing — from the messiness of modern dating to the unsolicited messages no one asks for — and how difficult it can be to feel whole again after you've been silenced or shamed. This conversation is for anyone who’s ever felt stuck, questioned their worth, or needed a reminder that healing is possible — and that you are never alone.

In this episode, investor and entrepreneur Jason Graystone opens up like never before. We dive into building emotional security despite a complicated past, becoming a dad at 22, and how Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich reframed his views on sex and purpose. From soundproofing offices for intimacy to the transactional nature of relationships, sex tapes, and grounding through arguments—this is a raw, unexpected look at success, self-worth, and connection.
