Artificial Intimacy: Relationships in the Algorithm Era
What if you had to date your spouse in the age of TikTok, ChatGPT, and DM culture? In this episode of *Grown & Growing*, Keion and Shaunie Henderson unpack what love, commitment, and intimacy look like when algorithms are running the room.

The Trap of “Soft Life” vs. The Grind of Greatness
Is the "soft life" real growth — or a slow way of avoiding responsibility? In this episode, Keion and Shaunie unpack the difference between protecting your peace and dodging the hard work greatness actually requires. From parking lot standoffs to holding doors for strangers who don't say thanks, Shaunie makes it clear: she's not looking for smoke, but she's for it. Meanwhile, Keion breaks down why he's less addicted to work and more addicted to outcomes. What we get into: - The real definition of "soft life" — and where it starts costing you - Rest vs. laziness (and why the difference matters) - Sabbath vs. quitting — a biblical take - How avoiding conflict shaped their kids, and what changed - Whether greatness is defined by you or by the people watching - Shaunie's athletic résumé (and Keion's honest review) A conversation about pursuing peace without abandoning the grind — with plenty of laughs along the way. If this one hit home, share it with someone who needs to hear it.
