This episode is all about new relationships and talking stages. We use evidence based communication  insights to break some things down and help you get some clarity to what can often be grey area. Are you oversharing? What types of topics should you bring up early on? How do you know if they are interested or like you based on their communication? 

This won’t be so much about hard rules or tricks - we don’t believe in playing games, but we do believe in being informed so that you can show up in your relationships in a way that you feel good about. We also want to ease your anxiety a bit and help give you some clarity if you are in a confusing scenario currently with someone. Then we go over music recommendations and share some spicy personal info with a couple fun games in our Dish Bish segment at the end. 

This episode covers:

• Anxiety in early relationship stages
• How much you should share in the beginning of a relationship?
• How to gauge if you are oversharing
• How to be open without oversharing and what that looks like
• Some things to avoid sharing early on, as well as what you should share in the talking stages of a relationship
• How to know if someone you're talking to is interested in you 
• When and how to approach conversations about feelings when you need additional clarity

Do you want to play it smart and be able to appropriately gauge how much you should share and be able to better tell if someone likes you back? This can be really hard to do sometimes, but especially when you are in a talking or early stage of a relationship. We want to help give you some things to think about that will ease your mind and help you navigate things in a healthy way.

I interviewed Illa Lynn last year and it’s finally out! I can’t think of a topic we DON’T talk about. Illa tells her story about leaving her home in Bosnia and Herzegovina as an 11-year-old during the Bosnian war, her experience working in Corporate America and how she finally worked up the energy and courage to leave and start her own coaching business, and we even get into relationships and heartbreak. Illa is a dream to talk to and has so much great insight and advice. Since the interview she has become a thought leader & writer on Dating and Relationships for Kuel Life - a middle-age women empowerment platform and she's working on writing a book! Find Illa at the links below.

Note: The Gap Year Podcast is looking for a sponsor! If you are interested in reaching a smart and thoughtful audience of midlife, and older, listeners, contact Debbie Weil.  More about the show here.

Debbie brings Alyson Hoggart, one of her oldest and most special friends, onto the show. She and Alyson have a transatlantic friendship of many decades. They are age mates, with almost identical birthdays in the same birth year. 

They chat about what it’s been like in Europe during COVID, with some interesting detours into Alyson’s life as a widow, with a new boyfriend. They talk about how the lockdown has speeded up this new relationship.

Alyson is a retired psychologist and one of the most insightful people Debbie knows. So she picks her brain for a few tips on how to cope, psychologically, during this period of social distancing. 

They chat briefly about Alyson's children. Amy Hoggart is a well-known actor, writer, and comedian who lives in New York. (Don't miss Amy's hilarious appearances on Full Frontal With Samantha Bee.) Her son Richard, a lawyer, lives in London.

They  also talk about Alyson's website, My Horrid Parent. It’s a site with resources for how to cope with a difficult parent, one who is especially critical or judgmental. It's aimed at the young but also the not-so-young. The topic is especially relevant right now for someone younger who may be unexpectedly stuck at home with a parent. Or for those dealing with an isolated elderly parent. 

It was great for Debbie to catch up with Alyson and she hopes you enjoy listening in to this conversation about life across the pond. Don't miss the bit about Richard's COVID cat.

• My Horrid Parent 
• Horrible parents: a survival guide (article in The Guardian)
• Alyson's daughter: actor, writer, and comedian Amy Hoggart
• It’s Personal with Amy Hoggart

When you've been in a relationship for as long as we have you learn a bit or two about commitment and compromise. In this episode we talk about the expectations and vulnerabilities we faced throughout our decade-long relationship. Naturally, our expectations changed throughout the years and our emotional vulnerabilities guided our relationship often in unexpected ways. So join us for a casual convo about our personal experiences with these aspects, the then and now.

Dali and JQ are back at it again with a new episode to help us all adult a little better. Season 3 has been dedicated change and different events that tend to take place in our lives that force a change to happen. This weeks episode is targeted around the adjustments that occur when we start new romantic relationships.

We talk about the pros and cons, the honeymoon phase, the after honeymoon phase, and so much more that comes with building a new life with a new romantic partner. I think we even constructed a new honeymoon phase within the same relationship! And as always we go into our segments and answer a few questions our listeners had.

Whether the idea of having a new romantic partner ignites a thrill or a concern (or maybe both!) in you, creating a bond with someone new is always a major change we have to overcome no matter how many times we've gone through it. It's part of growing up, right?   
Also, we weren't able to give y'all a 5 min wine down this week thanks to COVID-19. But tune in next week because we're definitely coming back with one. And trust us, you don't want to miss it.
