JOIN US LIVE IN EDINBURGH ON 3RD SEPTEMBER - Head to SIDTLive.com for more information and to purchase tickets.Today - we’re discussing a topic that’s deeply personal, sometimes overwhelming and often very difficult to talk about: fertility. We are joined by an incredible guest - Mr Ali Al Chami - a leading fertility doctor and the medical director of the Avenues fertility clinic in London. We asked you on Instagram for your questions for Ali - when is the right time to freeze your eggs? Could taking Ozempic or a GLP-1 help you to get pregnant? How can our lifestyles affect our fertility? We asked Ali all of those questions - and many more - to attempt to demystify fertility. Whether you're actively going through treatment, thinking about your future, or just want to better understand the emotional and medical realities of fertility... we hope this episode is a useful tool. You can find out more about Ali's work at Avenues here: https://avenues.life/ Follow @avenues.life on Instagram Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceStudio Manager: Dex RoyVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Sarah EnglishMusic: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

So please keep that image in your mind while you’re listening! Today - we’re discussing Em’s shampoo disaster and a revelation that might explain why Al struggles so much in the heat. We also discuss Skims’ latest release - a face wrap that supposedly ‘shapes and sculpts’ your jaw as you wear it overnight.

This week on Should I Delete That, we’re talking about sex. Our guest is Catriona Boffard: clinical psychosexologist, psychotherapist and globally recognised expert on sex and relationships. She’s here to help us understand the real reasons why so many of us often struggle with intimacy - and she explains that it’s often not *just* about sex. With your questions in hand, in this episode we cover everything from orgasms and libido to shame, pleasure and desire. And one of the biggest things we took away from this conversation was that it’s normal to have questions about sex - and that it’s healthy to talk about problems that we may be having. You can find out more about Catriona’s work at https://catrionaboffard.com/ Follow @sexologywithcatriona on InstagramYou can listen to Catriona’s podcast Asking For A Friend hereJOIN US FOR OUR BIGGEST LIVE SHOW EVER!

Today, we’re diving into the inbox… look at us adding some structure to the occasion! There’s an email about wedding weight loss pressure and how to handle it when people positively reinforce drastic weight loss. We also go into detail about how difficult it is to maintain friendships when some of your friends have kids, and some of you don’t. They're big topics which we think a lot of you to will be able to relate to - so we hope this episode is helpful in some way if you're dealing with similar issues.Do you have any advice that you’d like to share?
