  • Difficult In-Laws, Shared PTO & Relationship Dynamics
    Mar 2 2026

    This week we’re recording from Hawaii and reflecting on the trips we’ve taken together, from our first weekend away to big family vacations. We talk about how travel reveals your real relationship dynamic, what happens when you start merging families, and why in-law situations can feel simple for some couples and complicated for others. We also get honest about shared PTO, family expectations, and how different upbringings shape vacation dynamics.

  • I Stopped Dating My Type and Found My Fiancé
    Feb 26 2026

    Caroline Sacks joins the pod to break down her Hinge meet-cute turned long-term love story — from casually dating in NYC to defining the relationship months later. We talk about dating without intention (and getting lucky), being the “boyfriend girl,” and why marrying with intention matters more than dating with it. She opens up about choosing a calm partner over chemistry chaos, navigating content creation in a relationship, and what wedding planning has really taught her about friendships. Plus: 24 venues, no dress (yet), and the politics of the metaphorical seating chart of life.

  • Not Fighting Isn’t the Same as Being Close
    Feb 24 2026

    I’m joined by Colette Jane Fehr, couples therapist, relationship expert, and author of The Cost of Quiet: How to Have the Hard Conversations That Create Secure, Lasting Love. We talk about why “not fighting” isn’t the same as being connected, how losing your voice can slowly erode a relationship, and what it actually means to do the work in love. Colette shares how her own divorce, dating experiences, and attachment patterns shaped the way she shows up in her second marriage, and why speaking up (even when it’s scary) is the key to secure love. We get into conflict avoidance, anxious vs. avoidant dynamics, the fear of being “too much,” and more.
