  • EP 18: Setting Boundaries

    In this episode, we explore boundaries and how we’re learning to set them. Boundaries are a big part of creating a healthy relationship. We were taught that boundaries are not for your loved ones, which isn’t true! It’s actually a great way to build a strong foundation of a relationship. Boundaries help us love each other the way we need. It creates connections and understanding of one another. We’re unlearning and relearning how to set boundaries in our every day lives; at work, with our families/friends, with each other, and ourselves! The goal isn’t to get it perfect, but to keep trying.

  • EP 17: Mother's Day

    In this episode, we reflected on our relationship with our moms. Charlotte's mom had her young and was a single mother for a period of time. Thony's mom raised him in a traditional household. As we got older, our relationship naturally evolved. We've learned to humanize our moms by listening to their stories and seeing the many roles they play. We are grateful for the sacrifices they've made and for the life they have given us. The relationships we have with our moms aren't perfect but we wouldn't want to go through this process of unlearning without them. Our moms did the best they could with the knowledge they had. To all the mothers and mother figures listening, thank you for all that you do!

  • EP 15: Healing

    In this episode, we shared what we’re trying to heal from and how it looks like for us. As a couple who are own their separate healing journey, we are still figuring out how we can support one another. One thing we’ve learned is to just meet each other where we are and respecting the differences we have when it comes to healing. Whether it’s giving each other the space to practice our self-care or creating time/capacity to listen and validate. We hope this episode makes you feel less alone as you’re processing your healing. Be proud of yourself and give yourself grace. We’re in this together!

  • EP 14: Get Ugly with Mailee
    On this episode, Mailee interviews us…. but no really, how did she turn the tables on us? Mailee is many things but what we love most about her is that she is unapologetically herself. Her raw honesty of the “ugly” sides of healing was a reminder to us that we never have it all figured out but it doesn’t mean we aren’t healing. Creating the awareness of the “ugly” is what helps us bloom. She made us dig deeper, laugh and learn more about each other. This episode is a perfect example of what a conversation with Mailee is like. Don’t forget to follow Mailee and listen to her podcast for vulnerable conversations! Mailee’s links are listed below.

  • EP 13: the time we almost broke up
    In this episode we reflected on the time we almost broke up. Sometimes the best way to heal a relationship is by taking the focus off the relationship and to start looking within ourselves. We spent a lot of time reflecting on how we contributed to the challenges and the work we need to do to heal our past in order to move forward. One thing we’ve learned is there’s not a wrong choice when it comes breaking up or staying together. We all have different capacities when it comes to the things we can tolerate and grow from. We can only hope that the relationships you’ve chosen to continue make you feel safe, respected and loved. And that the relationship you have with yourself is evergrowing!

  • EP 12: Embrace, Expand & Explore w/ Nakita Vang

    Our first guest of 2022 is the one and only, Nakita Vang! We think you’ll immediately feel the warmth and honesty that she embodies. Nakita shared her experiences and reflections about relationships, self-love, single-hood, how we show up and much more. She also helped us understand each other more, something we didn’t expect but it just goes to show how amazing Nakita is. We hope you enjoy all the gems and laughs we shared with Nakita.

    **We apologize for the echos. You also may want to turn the volume down for this episode, we got a little loud and excited!
