Caroline gets right into it about why staying together for the kids is a myth, how children speed up the inevitable, and why the idea of a “fun baby” is pure propaganda. We talk blending families, building businesses, becoming different versions of yourself, and that time her husband programmed her phone to scream “WE NEED A BABY” every day at noon.

She shares her advice for women starting over, her favorite misconception (cold-hearted bitch, and proud), and the red flags she’s flying high in her own relationship (ignoring her husband and loving it - ha!). Oh, and if your man loves his mom too much... maybe run? (Kidding... kinda.)

Anna’s back and we’re talking about my new relationship—the first one that actually feels easy in all the right ways.

We get into dom/sub dynamics, weird DMs from a guy offering to work for free, and Anna warning me I’m gonna get blackmailed. My response? “So he’s going to be making all my social media assets for me for free… with a boner? That’s fine with me.”

Also: dating rules, sleeping together early, and how in marriage, you either grow together or grow apart.

From the I Wish You Knew Podcast, Adam Smith and Andrey Korikov break down why modern relationships are struggling—and what we can do to fix them. From the neuroscience behind attachment to the biology of bonding (yes, men and women really do connect differently), we explore how stress, sex, and communication shape connection.

We break down why conflict isn’t something to avoid—but the key to building trust. Plus, why the divorce rate is falling not because relationships are thriving, but because younger generations have stopped marrying altogether. Most people don’t know what a healthy relationship looks like—let alone how to be a partner.

Adam shares his CEO–COO model: a high-functioning partnership framework rooted in shared purpose, executive-level communication, and teamwork. We also discuss actionable strategies to connect with avoidant partners, communicate clearly, and rebuild the lost relational skills our culture has forgotten.
