Natasha Lunn: Love Is Protecting Each Other’s Solitude
Can you believe we’ve reached season finale time *already*? No, me neither, to be honest… but we’re out with a bang! Natasha Lunn, the author of Sunday Times bestseller and one of 2021’s most talked-about non-fiction titles, Conversations on Love, is my marvellous final guest for season five of the podcast. Natasha’s debut book, Conversations On Love, is inspired by her bimonthly newsletter of the same name. Over the past four years, she’s interviewed leading psychotherapists, writers & thought leaders, from Alain de Botton, Dolly Alderton, Esther Perel and Philippa Perry, on the subject of love, in all its forms. We discuss, among other things, the relationship between solitude and loving other people; why we shouldn’t make false divisions between ‘single people’ and ‘coupled up people’; the process of ‘enmeshment’ and how it can affect a relationships; how friendships have ‘phases’, just like romantic relationships; myriad forms of loneliness; and so much more. Natasha is a wise and thoughtful interviewee – and this was a very special conversation to end the season with. Tata for now, friends. Remember you can always get in touch via Twitter (@ChezSpecter) and Instagram (@ChezSpecter/@alonementofficial) – and of course, if you’ve loved this season, I’d love it if you could leave a review on Apple Podcasts to share what you thought. See you next season! Natasha’s book, Conversations On Love, is out now. My book, Alonement: How To Be Alone and Absolutely Own It, is out now from Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops.
