Currently streaming on Max.

What happens when love crosses cultural lines—and your entire family is along for the ride? In this episode of RomCom Rescue, we're breaking down the love lessons (and boundary blunders) in the iconic 2002 rom-com My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

Kira Sabin, a certified coach and healthy dating educator, and Dr. Isabel Morley, a licensed psychologist and couples therapist, unpack what this movie gets right (and very wrong) about identity, in-laws, and choosing yourself while staying connected.

From overbearing relatives to unexpected romance and a whole lot of lamb, we’re diving into:

• Why Toula’s growth arc still resonates
• The psychology behind boundary-setting with family
• What healthy compromise really looks like in relationships
• And whether Ian and Toula would actually make it IRL

Whether you're Greek, geeky, or just tired of dodging your aunt’s matchmaking attempts, this episode is for you.

🎧 Tune in now—and remember, you create your own happily ever after.
