Marriage isn’t a fairy tale — it’s a whole unedited cut.

The vows are cute, but what happens after the magic wears off and real life starts screaming for attention?

In this episode, Marriage: The Unedited Cut, we’re diving into the parts no one warns you about:

the routines that get stale, the misunderstandings that stack quietly, the love that shifts shape, and the work it takes to stay connected when life won’t stop lifing.

We’re breaking down the difference between styles of loving and styles of living, why couples stop seeing each other clearly, and what it actually looks like to choose partnership every day — even on the days you barely like each other.

☕️ Real talk. Real marriage. Zero filters.

Whether you’re married, divorced, dating, confused, or just nosey — this episode will make you feel seen.

“Some lessons weren’t meant to last forever — they were meant to be unlearned.”

In The Unlearning, we dive deep into the rules, roles, and “good girl” conditioning passed down from mama — and how they shaped the women we became. From being the strong one, to staying silent to keep the peace, to mistaking control for love… this episode is about breaking those generational habits and rewriting what we actually believe now.

It’s raw. It’s reflective. It’s that “aha” moment with a side of chaos and compassion.

☕️ If you were raised to be grateful even when you were hurting, to shrink yourself to fit in, or to love people harder than they loved you — this one’s for you.
