In this episode, we dive into the biblical principles surrounding the role of a wife as a helpmate to her husband. We contrast these principles with the dynamics of modern relationships, which often prioritize competition and a one-sided approach to partnership. Join us as we explore the significance of being prepared to fulfill the supportive and nurturing role envisioned in the biblical context, and consider how this perspective can enrich contemporary relationships. It’s a bit controversial, but let’s get into it!

In this episode, we had a great conversation with Engineer and STEM advocate, Tiffani Teachey, who highlighted the significance of STEM fields in our society and provides valuable insights for those who want to pursue a career in this field. She reminds us that everyone has the potential to become an Engineer and we must create a safe and supportive environment for everyone to be successful.

It truly is perfectly okay to do better and want more out of your life's journey. So, don't apologize for doing better, instead share your knowledge, reward yourself, clap for yourself and love yourself more!

In this episode, we explore the transformative power of decluttering and cleansing our surroundings to achieve a healthier and happier life. We chat about the importance of clearing out physical spaces such as our homes and cars, as well as detoxifying our spirits for a fresh start.

Declutter your space, Clean out your toxins, and declutter your spirit. I mean really, why are you keeping that dang 3-legged pony anyway?!

Hey friends, it’s a podcast throwback!!! In this episode, we are the guests on an amazing podcast, The Interracial Perspective: Maturity Not Included Podcast, with Ellceey and Erron. These beautiful podcast hosts invited us to be their special guests, which made this our very first podcast interview opportunity. They made us feel right at home and very comfortable, as we chopped it up about life, marriage, military, society, and culture.

This was one of our very first opportunities to see the inside happenings of how podcasting happens in the background. Brian and I learned so much on this day. Even though they were interviewing us, we felt they were also teaching us a bit of the podcasting ropes.

Finding trust in your partner and practicing grace daily within your relationship grows over time, however it must be cultivated.

Various stages of love, such as falling head over heels, passionate and fierce love, or a long term relationship, reflect the many emotional connections we have with our partners. Trust us, there is no playbook - but let’s get into what we have experienced through our 30+ years journey.

Happy Valentine Day everyone!! Giving each other time and committing to each other under the premise of "forever" are vital elements in building a strong and healthy relationship. It means being patient with each other, understanding each other's individuality, and giving each other space to grow and evolve. Ultimately, committing to each other "forever" means choosing to place your partner's needs above your own, building a foundation of trust, and creating a bond that can withstand the test of time. So with that being said, can you commit forever? Really - can you? Let’s get into it!

In this revealing episode, we explore the question of “why individuals choose to stay in toxic relationships”. We dive deep into the mental and emotional factors that contribute to the very volatile decision to stay in an unhealthy situation, as well as the potential impact on a person's well-being. There are very personal stories shared to help listeners gain clarity, understanding, and support in navigating toxic relationships. We surely don’t have all the answers but we aim to empower listeners to make healthier choices and find support in their journey towards a happier and more fulfilling relationship. Let’s get into this courageous conversation!

It’s collab over competition! In this thought-provoking episode, along with our fellow podcaster, Duke Lott, we explored the sensitive topics of church hurt, relationships, and diversity, equity, and inclusion. We shared personal stories, practical advice, and conversations to promote healing, growth, and inclusivity within the community. By acknowledging and addressing these issues, we can work towards creating a healthier, more loving, and inclusive environment for all. Join us in this engaging conversation on faith, relationships, community, and personal growth within the DEI space. Let’s get into it!

It’s constantly noted that one of the primary reasons for failed relationships is miscommunication. When couples fail to communicate effectively, they become disconnected, closed off and may experience feelings of emptiness, loneliness and confusion on how they got to that state within the relationship. Failed relationships and continuous miscommunication can be a painful and a life-altering experience for both parties. By working to understand the root causes of break-ups, divorces, and lack of communication, couples can take steps to prevent them and build healthy and lasting relationships. Let’s get into it!

In this episode, we pit the age-old conversation of doing for your partner. When you're in a relationship, it can be easy to lose sight of what matters. To get caught up in the day-to-day and forget why you're together. Doing for each other is key as you both sacrifice to ensure the relationship keeps the love and respect. So why not, “Make daddy a sandwich”?

Your questions came rolling in, so we are sharing our answers to a few of them, from our thoughts on what keeps us in love, our motivation, and our future book, to how we keep supporting each other. Also, there is some lame reference to O-H-I-O.

In this episode, Allow Us To Re-introduce Ourselves! We go back down podcast memory lane from our very 1st episode, where we share a few details of how we met and our whirlwind dating, which eventually led to a happenstance elopement. Yep!! You read it correctly - we eloped!! Ironically, we started this love match off with conversations, deep truths, and a love for coffee, which seems to have magically led us right here to you and what we do best, conversate over coffee. Thank you all for allowing us to share our Truths over Coffee!! Let's get into it!!

It’s time to take that deep dive into your values. We know that some conversations probably happened prior to the commitment. But as we know it's one thing to discuss it and another when execution time starts. Did those cultural values stay in tack? Or did one of you compromise? Or did those different values cause a noticeable upset within the relationship? Were you able to really work through it? These discussions become robust at the half-time point and for some even sooner. What happens during the height of the racial divide? How will your interracial relationship survive? This is how - through Honesty, Transparency, Communication, and most of all Respect!

Back in Season 2, Ep25, we discussed the Interracial pre-game. We shared some courageous conversations that interracial couples should talk about before getting into a serious relationship. So now you are in there, have jumped into a committed relationship, and/or you're married! Well, okay you jumped! Pre-gaming is over and now it is Game Time!

So many fathers want the absolute best for their daughters, but sometimes it doesn’t turn out as planned. So when a very questionable mate comes into their life, our first instinct is to protect them at all costs. This includes, not giving marital permission via actually walking them down the aisle and giving them away to an unsavory mate. How do you, as a parent, deal with this reality when the outcome is a wedding? Let's talk about it!

Yes! It’s the holidays, and in this episode we are discussing the good, the bad, and all there is in between. It’s, Holiday Bells or Holiday Hells and we are digging into our different family traditions, the fun of spending time with family, as well as the stress of seeing some of those same family members. Also, ummmm, is there a Santa?!
