Hello, fellow romantics, How are you this week? It is almost time for the release of part 36! This is the last episode I will release before going on a holiday. I expect it to be live on the website on Saturday May 21. (I will be back from vacation with the next episode, part […]

Hello, fellow romantics, How are you today? I’m working hard on part 35 and am happy with my progress. I did catch some kind of bug that is making me feel like I have ten thousand cotton balls inside my head, but luckily, I saw it coming and recorded the next episode just in time. […]

Hello, beautiful people, How are you today? If you read my previous post, you know I’m behind on work because I am in the process of saying goodbye to someone I love dearly. I am working, though, but slowly. I’ve been able to record part 34 and I’d love to share an excerpt with you […]

Hello, fellow romantics! How have you been? On my side, I am finally catching up with work somewhat. My health is improving and life is more stable. I am happy to share a big chunk of teaser with you today! Love, Sigrid “Only English at the office,” Nathalie said and nodded. “No problem and understood!” […]

Hello, fellow romantics! I hope you are doing well? I’m… eh.. A mixed bag. 😉 I’m in good spirits, but physically, it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster. I hurt my intercostal muscles and it has been extremely painful. I’ll save you all the details, but it’s been hard to walk around and function properly […]

Hello, fellow romantics! I get to share a written, extra scene with you on this day of Cupid. I was able to work on it thanks to the recurring support of listeners around the world. THANK YOU! 💜 Much love, Sigrid Lex walked into the store and smiled. The team had worked late into the […]

Hello, fellow romantics! How’s 2022 treating you so far? I’m trying to get my groove back in a somewhat chaotic time in my life. I’m happy, but things aren’t running as smoothly as I like them to be. 😉 Unfortunately, it also looks like we will have to say goodbye to our beloved Gertrude (cat) […]

Hello, friends! In case we haven’t ‘talked’ yet this year: HAPPY NEW YEAR! Those words used to come with a lot more promise in the past, it seems. For now, 2022 seems to bring us many of the challenges we faced in 2020 and 2021. Still, I hope we all will find a way to […]

Hello, fellow romantics, To everyone in the Southern Hemisphere: HAPPY NEW YEAR! To everyone who is in the Northern Hemisphere with me: Have a wonderful end of year and a very HAPPY NEW YEAR (very soon)! I’ll be honest: I’m not sure what to hope for in this new year. It looks like we’re in […]

Hello, fellow romantics, The holidays snuck up on me this year. 2021 felt like both a rollercoaster and a (very) slow train to me. I keep asking myself if this or that really happened in 2021 because it feels like 5 years have passed for me rather than 1. The holidays are here now, though, […]

Hello, friends! How are you feeling this week? What are your plans for the end of the year? I hope you can spend some time with your (chosen) family in a safe way. I plan to! I’m on schedule to release the next episode in a few days. Until then, I have this teaser for […]

Hello, friends! How are you this week? I have so much going on in my life right now it is hard to describe. But I feel more alive than I have in a long time. As always, I am grateful I get to share my work with you thanks to the support of listeners around […]

Hello, fellow romantic! Happy Halloween! 🎃 I get to share a written, extra scene with you today. I was able to work on it thanks to the recurring support of listeners around the world. If you’d like to help decide what extra scene I will write next, check out my support page! 😉 Much love, […]

Hello, romantics! How are you enjoying this time of year? I can’t believe it’s almost Halloween… I’m working on an extra as promised. 😉 In the meantime, I want to share this teaser of the next episode. <3 Sigrid UPDATE: Added some more excerpt 🙂 Raven sat up in bed immediately after waking, startled. It […]

Hello friends! I’m back after an exciting vacation and working hard to get the next episode to you as soon as possible. Hope you enjoy this teaser! Sigrid Nathalie dropped her bag onto the chair and waved at Noah, their youngest developer. He had just put down a mug of coffee on his desk at […]

Hello lovely people! I am still running behind a bit on work, but I am sharing all of it with you as soon as I can! Enjoy this teaser ^^ Sigrid Raven heard the birds first. She smiled and lazily rolled onto her side. Nathalie was still sleeping, her hair partly in front of her […]

Hello fellow romantics, I’m back from some time off for my birthday and thought you wouldn’t mind a teaser excerpt in the weekend? 😉 Love, Sigrid UPDATE 25/08: Added some excerpt! U Nathalie studied Raven’s body intently. The pathway by the water was narrow and she was walking behind Raven rather than next to her. […]

Hello fellow romantics, How are you doing this week? Hope you enjoy this excerpt. Love, Sigrid Update 11/08: Added more excerpt. Raven’s phone died just after she had hit send. She scoffed at herself, annoyed that she had forgotten to charge it. She was on a different continent, walking in a foreign city, and she […]

Hi there! As I was editing this morning, I decided to do a little extra today 🙂 I’m taking you into the editing process and showing you one of the things I enjoy doing the most. Now, don’t share this with other podcasters. *wink wink* This is my secret ingredient to making this podcast very […]

Ok, this is something I’ve been wanting to try for a while now. I just re-listened to the episode I published here yesterday… and added some commentary. It’s just me talking, not performing, and it’s kinda refreshing to address y’all as if we’re just having coffee together. 🙂 So, for all you re-listeners out there, […]

Hey fellow romantics, We’ve had a rough week and it was wonderful to sit down in my home office and answer your fun questions! Thank you for sending those in! 🙂 Hope you enjoy listening to this 11th ‘very real’ (and a bit raw at times) Q&A. Love, Muriel & Sigrid PS: This is the […]

Hello everyone, It’s Q&A time! Thank you so much for all your fun questions for this Q&A! Our weeks have been very chaotic and the recording of this Q&A was not any different. 😉 Apologies to Sherlock & Watson: we forgot to answer a question again… It was Gertrude’s fault! A big thank you to […]

Hi, It was high time for a sitdown in the library with our makeshift studio. Our minds might not have been all that sharp in 32C, but we really enjoyed answering your questions! Hope you enjoy! Sigrid & Muriel Accessibility Link

Hello hello! You sent in some awesome questions and we had a lot of fun answering them. Hope you enjoy the 7th Fellow Romantic Podcast. Lots of 💜 Sigrid & Muriel Accessibility Link

Hello hello! Muriel and I set up shop in a new location for this extra podcast. Why? I’ll explain in the Q&A. 😉 Here’s what our improvised studio looked like! Thank you so much for all of your questions and your voicemails. Hope you enjoy this Fellow Romantic Podcast #6! Sigrid PS: Will add new […]

Hello, It’s time for the fifth Fellow Romantic Podcast! We have 3 awesome voicemails from fellow romantics and 7 questions to answer! Grab some coffee, tea, beer or wine and join Muriel and me in the pillow fort. 🙂 Some of the questions in this Q&A:   “It’s been a while since you’ve had to […]

Helllooo, Wowza, we had a lot of fun questions this time! Join us and have a glass of wine while listening! Warning: we might have had a little bit too much while we recorded. Careful with the volume: lots of loud laughter and more… Hope you enjoy this 3rd Q&A!  I’m going to click publish […]

Hey there! On Saturday morning, Muriel and I usually sip coffee on the couch and have a chat. This week, we moved the coffee and our discussion to the pillow fort. Inspired by your questions, Muriel and I talked about the podcast, the new story, storytelling and writing. We might have gotten a bit too […]

Hello, fellow romantics,  Yay! I’m so happy and proud I can share this episode with you early. I really am trying to get back on track (again.) I recorded an extra video to thank all supporters of the podcast. I wanted to make it more personal this time! ( I also talk about how I’ve […]

Hey, how are you doing? I am quite well. I think it is time to give y’all an update on what has been going on. The short version? Muriel and I have decided to separate. We are doing this with lots of love and grace. We intend to stay in each other’s lives and are […]

Hey everyone, A quick video update about why the next episode has a delay… Sorry for the unexpected delay and thank you for your patience! Love, Sigrid

Mostly saying ‘hi!’ but also have a small scheduling update. And testing the new sound again. What do you think? 🙂

Hello, fellow romantics, When I started The Lesbian Romantic almost 5 years ago, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted it to sound like. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the equipment or knowledge to create that sound. In the last 5 years, I basically bootstrapped my podcast. I made it work as best […]

Hey, fellow romantic, I have some important news: I am launching a Patreon fundraising page. That means there are now several ways you can support my work: directly on this website (the old way) or through Patreon. Or both. 🙂 I know: I’ve been saying I don’t want to join other platforms, such as Patreon, […]

I’m leaving Twitter, Facebook and Instagram today. I want to explain why without writing a long rant. 😉 Here I go… *draws in deep breath* I believe social media platforms are destroying everything that brings out the best in us: empathy, human connection and the ability to see things in context. I believe the corporations […]

A wonderful email I received tonight made me realize it really was time to post a vlog update! Check out the other Shitty Stuff PS: I’d love to send you a postcard!

Hello! I ended my last post with (among other things): I want to contribute to a world in which people feel less alone. It took me quite a few days to realize the irony of my statement. The thing is: I have felt alone myself way too many times in these last years. I want […]

Hello, my dear friends. Opening a post to start writing here feels a bit like opening a diary now! Today, I want to reflect on the meaning of my work. Defining what my work is about has been a frustrating experience for me these last 4 years. I felt like I had to be able […]

I was lying awake last night and kept thinking about this paragraph I wrote yesterday. The second reason is that I think I had become too dependent (financially). Being so extremely invested in one thing made it hard for me to separate what I wanted to do from what I thought my audience wanted me […]

I always knew going back to consultancy work wasn’t going to be easy. I thought I’d still find a way to cope, though. And I sort of did. But I find myself no longer willing to contribute to things I believe are doing great harm. Things like throwing money at Facebook, or Twitter. The irony […]

Correction! About 2.5% of listeners gives back. I said 1% out of habit because that was the number for a long time.

Okay, I need a nap now!
