🎙️ This week, I just needed to vent. So I showed up at Kenna’s house and we hit record. No lessons, no takeaways—just all the little things that have been driving us crazy lately. From backhanded compliments and bad manners to obnoxious emails and cringe car culture, nothing was off-limits.

If you’ve ever been bothered by the smallest things (and felt kinda bad about it), you’re not alone. Let’s laugh through the chaos together.

This episode hit different… because it’s my story.

From enduring surgeries to navigating a deeply personal and painful experience involving harassment, I share how I unintentionally fell into a victim mindset—even after years of priding myself on growth and resilience. What shifted my perspective was unexpected: a conversation about Scar and Mufasa from The Lion King.

Yep, that Lion King.

In this raw, honest episode, I unpack how trauma, mindset, and our response to injustice can either keep us bitter or make us better. This isn’t just a pep talk—this is a turning point. For me. Maybe for you, too.

Whether you're healing, holding onto anger, or just trying to grow—this one’s for you. 💛

After 15 years of marriage—including getting married, divorced, and remarried—I wanted to have a brutally honest conversation with my husband Brad about what we’ve *actually* gotten right (and wrong). We’re not therapists, and we’re not here to tell you how to run your relationship—but we are here to be real.

From learning how to over-communicate, set boundaries, and deal with unrealistic expectations to figuring out how to handle conflict without losing love or loyalty—we’re laying it all out.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by trying to "get it right" in your relationship, this episode will help you feel seen, heard, and maybe even a little more hopeful.

💬 We talk about love languages, how to avoid taking each other for granted, and why loyalty is the glue that holds everything together—even on the messy days.

Press play if you're ready for a real, unscripted look at what marriage looks like behind the scenes.
