Series: What I Wish I Knew Before Getting Married

In this episode, we’re diving into a big question: How do we grow in intimacy as a couple?

Do you find yourself avoiding difficult conversations with your spouse—especially around intimacy? And what does healthy sexual intimacy really look like?

Physical closeness is one way we express love, but sexual intimacy is more than that — it's a language, — a form of communication. So, let’s talk.

Our host, Hosanna Nazar, is joined by Raymond and Jenny Teo, founders of Ten Butter Fingers and a couple married for 25 years. They encourage couples to explore and learn together. Even after marriage, it’s okay to say, “We’re still figuring it out.” Because intimacy is not about pressure or performance —it’s about growing in trust, humility, and openness.

Series: What I Wish I Knew Before Getting Married

In this episode, we’re tackling a question many couples wrestle with: How can I get along with my in-laws?

As we step into fresh roles in marriage and family life, it’s important to remember that our parents and in-laws are also navigating their own transitions. Just as we were never formally taught how to be spouses or parents, they too were never taught how to be mothers-or fathers-in-law. We’re all learning—together.

Join our host, Hosanna, as she speaks with Raymond and Jenny Teo—founders of Ten Butter Fingers and married for 25 years—as they recall how managing in-law relationships was a major source of tension early in their marriage. With many responsibilities, even scheduling a simple meal with both sets of parents felt overwhelming—and they realised they had little time for themselves. But learning to see things from their parents’ perspective reshaped how they responded. They chose to love and honour their parents while finding solutions that worked for their family.

From budgeting styles to spending habits, our personal views on money shape expectations in marriage—and those expectations can sometimes lead to tension.

But what if financial conflict is actually an opportunity to pause and ask, “Where is this coming from?”

In this episode, we explore the idea of stewardship—using money wisely while learning to appreciate how your partner expresses love through financial decisions. It’s not just about dollars and cents; it’s about values, communication, and trust.

Our host, Hosanna Nazar, is joined by Raymond and Jenny Teo, who are married for 25 years and are the founders of Ten Butter Fingers. They share how they’ve come to see that while money can bring comfort and even happiness, true joy comes from shared values, intentional time together, and wise choices—not just spending.
