When I was a single divorcee in my late 30s tryingto navigate theapps, I wished there was somewhereI couldturn to for supportiveadviceand friendly expertise. I created How To Date tomeet that need. Im a huge fan of Mel and her work onMarried At First Sight. Im so delighted she said yes to co-hosting and Im really proud of what weve made. Its been a pleasure to co-produce again with my friends at Sony and I truly believe this eight-week Podclass will teach listeners everything they need to know about finding and sustaining love with others and with themselves Elizabeth Day, Executive Producer
