Darla and Nadia: Falling in Love for the First Time, After Marriage

Darla and Nadia: Falling in Love for the First Time, After Marriage
Darla and Nadia's love story began after the soulmate myth had already been dismantled for one of them. In this episode, they reflect on growing up with a narrow idea of what love was "supposed" to look like, and how unlearning those beliefs reshaped what they thought was possible. What followed surprised them both: a relationship that formed quickly, demanded emotional presence from the start, and gently revealed that soulmates aren't found; perhaps they're built through care, communication, and shared vision.

Just Between Us: I Stopped Proving I Could Do It All Alone

Just Between Us: I Stopped Proving I Could Do It All Alone
First-born children, where you at? Today we're diving into what happens when the hyperindependent folks among us finally (begrudgingly?) let our loved ones help us. We're sharing the vulnerable, visceral moments when we interrupted our default patterns, stopped white-knuckling it, and actually let ourselves be supported in real moments of need. Being self-sufficient has its perks, but it can also be a barrier to closeness. In this episode, we talk about how some of our closest relationships have transformed once we admitted that we couldn't, in fact, do it all alone. By the way, welcome to our first "Just Between Us" episode! These episodes are where we (Anna and Grace) sit down 1:1 to unpack whatever big themes, lessons, or emotional earthquakes recent episodes have stirred up in our own lives. More to come!
