Everyone's favorite duo is back on the mic this week to discuss Julia Naftulin's INSIDER article, "4 hard conversations about dating that should be normalized — and how to have them" and Esther Perel's YouTube video "Are Taboos Holding Your Relationship Back?" Erica and Molly use these two bits of research as a jumping off point for a conversation on their favorite topic: things you aren't supposed to talk about. They chat about how and when to talk to a partner about things that are still extremely stigmatized like mental health, finances, STIs, and sexuality.
