Romantical Podcast

10 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 5 years ago - ★★★★★ - 34 ratings

We have funny, diverse, candid, inspiring and informative conversations about love and love lives. Hosted by Francesca Hogi with the coolest guest co-hosts around, like the incredible Saskia Nelson.

We are fun, vulnerable, sex-positive, self-love advocates.

Like “is an internationally recognized dating coach, writer and speaker who you might have seen talking love on The Today Show multiple times” legit. (We see you, Francesca Hogi!)

When Saskia isn’t running her international (UK + US) and award-winning company, Hey Saturday, she’s living her best life in London with her boyfriend of 10 years.

When Francesca isn’t buying a new houseplant (seriously - she has a problem), she’s coaching extraordinary people to live the extraordinary lives they dream of from her home base in Los Angeles.

We hope you love our podcast as much as we do! We’ve put our hearts into it and we hope you can feel the love. xoxo
