She sounded so nice on the phone.
He was intrigued.
They built a friendship and then a marriage.
So when the shift happened, they didn’t see it coming.
I sat down with Rachale and Bruce as they shared their story of love, marriage, infidelity, Faith, and reconciliation.
This is just part one, where we explore the shifts that led to Bruce’s decision and how he found forgiveness and healing to reconcile his marriage.
I was humbled and so grateful for his transparency. He shared things that so many men struggle with but don’t talk about.
It’s real, y’all!
A must listen for a healing journey on so many levels.
Because “you can forgive and not stay?”
So what helped their recommitment?

It's just not going to be how it was in the very beginning.
Many things about our marriages shift around because we grow and our circumstances change.
And that's not a bad thing.
In fact, it's quite the contrary.
But that doesn't mean that there aren't moments we take for granted.
In this episode we chat about one of the most common points of frustration and "take for granted" moments we have in our marriages and get honest about turning it around.
It's the daily stuff that makes the difference, right.
The daily effort.
So eavesdrop on today's sauce and switch it up today!

The first time I'm really sharing this story in it's entirety in a public space.
Yet here I am.
I felt moved to return from my podcast hiatus by sharing with you why the hiatus was necessary in the very place.
And as I come back to round out Season 2 in the way it was intended, I'm having a transparent, vulnerable moment with you all about my struggles and revelations around losing my mother in this season in my life.
So hold space with me and for me and take the next few minutes to sit with me as I share candidly on this special bonus episode.
With Love,
Imani
You may be giving the title of today's podcast the side-eye, but it's one you gotta listen to first before you form an opinion.
This special episode is from a Q&A my husband and I did at this year's Saucy Marriage Weekend Event.
And so much more.
We basically spilled our own tea in this episode while sharing our struggles and the lessons they taught us over the years.
So stick in those headphones, earbuds, or Airpods if you're fancy, and eavesdrop on today's episode with the me and the one an only Ostus Stephen!

Most of us have a level of anxiety.
This.
That moment alone in this conversation led me to realize something about myself.
Unless you live off the grid, (and perhaps even if you do), there can be so much going on with us physically and so much on our minds.
Work, Friends, House cleaning, You Time, Family Time, Spouse Time, Getting Outside, Quality Time at Home, Virtual Schooling, Homework Help, Transportation Time back and forth, etc.
Sometimes, it feels like the car and the bathroom are the only time you can actually hear yourself think!
We juggle all the balls and our mental health IS affected.
Anxiety. Depression. Postpartum.
They show up.
Hadassah Joseph and I tackled these questions and more while revealing our own experiences with anxiety, postpartum, and situational depression.
Hadassah is a Premarital Coach & Mindful Wedding Officiant.

If your sex life is feeling like it's missing something, you may dust off that lingerie or turn up the Marvin Gaye, but often that's only the bandaid on top of a cut much deeper.
If we really think about it, part of our identity gets wrapped up in our marriages, and when the marriage begins to show cracks, we can start to see cracks in ourselves.
On this episode, Freedom Coach, Nataushia Miller laid it out and made it plain. Our candid conversation about self worth, marital trauma, and what it takes to get to restoration will move you in ways you don't want to miss.
Let's talk about it!

Inspired by the dialogue beneath one of my IG reels, this episode delves deeper into the boxes we put ourselves in our marriages, sometimes without even realizing it (because they've been ingrained in us for so long).
I spill the tea on my experiences and growth around clinging to this notion of "never going to bed angry" ...
... And how it can be counterproductive to actual peace and resolution after a disagreement.
Do you find yourself holding fast to this "rule" and missing the things right in front of you?
Let's talk about it!
Go ahead and eavesdrop on the Sauce!
Oh, and you can check out the reel I referenced here!

Our bodies change (ladies and fellas), right, but we're hush- hush about it, even with our spouses.
But it's normal... It's natural.
So why don't we just talk about it?
In this episode we chat about the why.
We chat about in what ways we can normalize...
the bellies,
stretch marks,
the areas that gravity touched,
the wrinkles,
the balding,
the greys in unexpected places,
all of it.
And not to stick it to society, but to show appreciation and love to ourselves, to each other!
So go ahead and eavesdrop on the sauce on today!

It would be great if it wasn't so easy to focus on the negative: what doesn't look right, what doesn't go well, what didn't happen, etc.
It actually takes intentional work to see the full truth in our lives and marriages, to see ourselves and our spouses fully and without making either the sum of every mistake or "flaw." And that intention doesn't come easily.
This episode we're shedding some much needed light on how we go about painting a picture of who we are and who are spouse is that puts more emphasis on the negative.
So join me today as we dive into ...
AND
So go ahead and eavesdrop on today's sauce!
