I know I'm a day late, but I swear I'm not a dollar short!

This episode of Podcasting Is the New Kink! is the first solo episode I've done in a while. It will be a recap of all the interviews this season, and I'm going to share my favorite moments and lessons.

Season 6 started off with the relationship experts, the Black love gurus, if you will. The first interview was with the Amazing Clarks, Anthony and Melanie. Their relationship is goals! They talked about spirituality outside of religion, trading gifts with your partner, the importance of vulnerability, and so much more. One of my favorite lessons was the one about fighting to grow instead of fighting to win! Melanie talked about making your partner a loser when you fight to win. And how do you think you will treat a loser?

The next interview was with Bee and Dee Hendershot, of the Truth and Coffee Time Podcast. Let me tell you right now, most of my laughter is usually edited out, but I was laughing so much during this interview that it just wasn't an option. They are hilarious! We talked about being a Black and white couple in the south, bringing baggage into your relationship, the importance and levels of honest and transparency, and more. We also talked about giving your partner grace and space. It seems like such a simple task, but it isn't always easy. When you are in the heat of things you want to solve problems right then and there. But that isn't always possible and pushing isn't always productive.

The last expert interview was the craziest! Lol. Snooks and Lovey Cason are Married Into Crazy and in this episode they share the wild introduction to their love story. We talk about overcoming adversity and bouncing back stronger, the role of God in their relationship, the importance of respect and much more. They even made CRAZY an acronym standing for compassionate, real, accountable, zealous, and yielding - pillars to build your relationship on.

I learned so much from these experts, but I also learned from the newbies. And I definitely enjoyed the conversations.

My sister-cousin Amber and her boo Dre talked about the importance of really getting to know your partner instead of chasing titles.

My bestest friend Nay and her fiance David shared their experience with therapy and how it propelled them to the next level in their relationship.

And my brother Vee and his wife Teah describe how they manifested their marriage by walking the walk and using the power of partnership.

I thought the last episode would be the last episode, but the I felt like this season deserved a recap because it was full of gems! I'm grateful to everyone who participated and to you the audience for listening. Thank you for making this season as awesome as it was.
