Summary

Natasha Lunn is the features director at RED magazine and the creator of a popular and acclaimed bimonthly email newsletter, Conversations on Love.

Her Top 10 Sunday Times Best-selling book, also called Conversations On Love, discusses a wide range of themes intimately connected to love. After years of feeling that love was always out of reach, she set out to understand how relationships work and evolve over a lifetime. Natasha turned to authors and experts to learn about their experiences, as well as drawing on her own, asking: How do we find love? How do we sustain it? And how do we survive when we lose it?

Some of my favourite conversations from the book include: Candice Carty-Williams on friendship, Emily Nagoski on the science of sex, Alain de Botton on the psychology of being alone, Esther Perel on unrealistic expectations and Roxane Gay on redefining romance.

0:00.9	Before we get started with today's episode, I'm really excited to tell you about Shadow,
0:06.0	who are kindly sponsoring this episode. You probably already know that I relish my time offline,
0:12.6	and one of my favourite habits during my weekly digital detoxes is to read and really take my time
0:18.5	with it. Now this obviously includes books, but this year it's also extended to reading magazines,
0:25.4	and one of my favourite publications is by Shadow. Shadow are an experienced lead community who
0:32.2	use arts, journalism and activism to unite people around social change, and in case you're
0:38.9	wondering, Shadow is an acronym for C Here Act Do. All of their work is rooted in self-representation,
0:47.7	and their goal is to help achieve culture-led system change through centering the voices of
0:52.4	frontline communities. Their stunningly illustrated by annual print magazine is so well put together,
0:59.4	and I think it would make an exceptional gift. I particularly enjoyed the climate justice issue,
1:04.8	which I think all the small things listeners would love. So if this sounds appealing, head to
1:10.4	shadow-mag.com forward slash shop, and do be sure to check out their Instagram, which is at shadow.mag
1:18.7	where they post all their online articles, caused action, and details of their upcoming events.
1:28.8	Hello and welcome back to the show, Venisha here. It has been a little while since the last
1:34.6	episode, and I have really missed you. I am super excited to be back with one final episode
1:41.3	bringing season three to a close. If you've enjoyed the series, it would mean the world to me
1:47.2	if you could give the show a five-star rating on Apple podcasts, or you could share the episode
1:52.5	on your social media, tagging me at Venisha Lamanna and tagging the show at ATST podcast.
1:59.6	Many of the issues we discuss on all the small things come back to the theme of Love,
2:05.2	which is why I am just delighted to be bringing you today's episode with journalist, author, and
2:10.9	absolute gem of a human Natasha Lund. Natasha Lund's conversations on Love began life as a
