With their holiday hair on point and nearly 29 years of marriage under their belts (yes, you read that right—29 years next month!), this dynamic duo is here to drop some serious relationship wisdom rooted in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) principles. In this 31-minute power-packed episode, Snooks and Lovey tackle one of the most misunderstood concepts in modern relationships: equality versus equity in marriage. This groundbreaking conversation demonstrates how DEI principles are essential for marriage success—recognizing that each partner brings diverse strengths, backgrounds, and capacities that must be honored and included for true partnership to thrive. What You'll Discover:

✅ Why equity over equality is the foundation of inclusive, successful marriages

✅ How embracing diversity in partnership roles creates stronger, more resilient relationships

✅ The importance of inclusion in marriage—ensuring both partners feel valued for their unique contributions

✅ Why financial peace in relationships isn't just about money—it's about equitable distribution based on individual capacity and circumstances

✅ Real talk about carrying your weight without falling into the toxic trap of scorekeeping

✅ How to have difficult conversations that strengthen your bond by honoring each partner's diverse perspective

✅ Behind-the-scenes insights from a couple who's been practicing inclusive partnership for nearly three decades

DEI in marriage means: Recognizing that partners come from different backgrounds, have different abilities, face different challenges, and contribute differently—and that's not just okay, it's beautiful. Snooks and Lovey show how celebrating diversity, practicing equity, and fostering inclusion creates the foundation for lasting love.
