About this episode

Toni discusses dating with discernment and addresses listener dilemmas about identity and grief in relationships.

Toni's talking dating with discernment this week, because sometimes what feels like chemistry is actually just desperation for connection in disguise 👀 Plus in Teatime with Toni, Producer Annisha joins to unpack two listener dilemmas: one on realising your relationship has become your whole identity, and another on the difference between grieving a person and grieving the routine you built around them!
