In this episode, Elizabeth invites you into a gentler rhythm of summer, one that’s not defined by packed calendars, family vacations, or Instagram-worthy plans. Instead, she explores what it means to reclaim summer as a childless woman and lean into a slower, more intentional pace.

From backyard mornings to feel-good K-dramas (need to know a good one? Send Elizabeth a DM and she'll give you recs!), Elizabeth shares what her version of summer joy looks like, and why giving yourself permission to rest isn’t laziness...it’s radical self-love. Whether you’re craving ease, healing, or simply a season that feels good for your soul, this episode reminds you that your summer gets to look like yours. No guilt, no pressure Just presence.

In this episode, Elizabeth sits down with her husband, Victor, for a raw and vulnerable conversation on Father’s Day. This is a day that carries quiet complexity for those navigating life without children and inside this episode, what starts as a casual check-in turns into a heartfelt exchange about grief, identity, societal pressure, and the silent ways men often carry loss.

Victor opens up about how Father’s Day really feels for him, what it’s like to grieve without clear rituals or community, and the emotional weight of letting go of a dream he never thought he’d have to release. Together, they reflect on shared grief, gender differences in emotional processing, and how this journey continues to evolve over time.

Whether you’re walking this path with a partner or solo, this episode offers insight, connection, and comfort in knowing that you are not alone—and that grief, while it may never fully disappear, can soften with time.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• A vulnerable, unscripted conversation about the emotional impact of Father’s Day
• How men process childlessness differently than women—and why it’s often invisible
• Why it’s important to acknowledge “silent grief”
• Reflections on guilt, identity, and healing as a couple
• The power of honest conversations in relationships
