Mrs and Mrs: The Podcast

We are excited to be back and we are ready to chat with our framily! Oh, how we’ve missed you and we have SO MUCH to talk about!  In this episode, we are unpacking the phrase ‘letting go’. We have heard this saying often and we may have even used it ourselves as it relates to relationships and people, situations, mindsets, and habits. What exactly is meant by ‘letting go’?  How do we know when we need to let something go and what are the steps to ‘letting go’? This has come up as a topic in our relationship because we realized that we were each nursing wounds and harboring resentments that really were not serving to help us develop the loving and healthy marriage we each desire.  We've realized that if we are going to cultivate the marriage we aspire to, we would both need to learn to let some things go.  

Please listen, like, subscribe share, and COMMENT!!!  We would love to know what you think!  If something resonates, drop us a note!  In the meantime, remember to stay in tune with your star player, drink your water, and mind your business! Luh y'all!

We've finally made it back to y'all and we are ready to talk about ALL THE THINGS!!   Starting a new school year, creating a podcast and being married -- things have been moving at WARPED SPEED and we are LOVING IT!

But we noticed something real fast -- but we realized immediately that something we needed to talk about was BALANCE -  and prioritizing US over everything... so let's talk about it FRAMILY!  #issabalance

Hey Framily!  Happy Labor Day!  Welcome to episode 4 - #GodandGays.  

Shelley and I have a deep relationship with our faith and the church and we often have deep and long conversations about what it was like for us growing up in the church and loving the sense of community and connectedness we felt -- only to realize that we were attracted to the same sex AND now God HATED us for it! It's a complex relationship that the 'Black' Christian church has with LGBTQ+ community *aka* 'gay folk.

On this episode, we are sitting down with our guests, Rev. Leslie Jackson, Pastor of St. Peter United Church of Christ, in Houston, Texas and his husband, Marcus Carter to discuss #GodandGays.

In episode 2 of Mrs and Mrs: The Podcast -- Shellez and Treve are introducing an important topic to each of them:  Mental Health!   We're excited to talk with Devaney Knight, LMFT as part of an ongoing conversation around understanding what it it means when we hear the terms 'mental health' and 'therapy' and de-stigmatizing mental health care.
