About this listen
Relationships look simple on paper. Love someone, build a life, roll credits. Real life is two flawed people with old wounds, busy schedules, stress, and the daily grind of dishes, work, and emotional labor. In this episode, I get honest about what happens after the honeymoon phase, when effort stops being mutual and appreciation turns into expectation. I share what I learned from my own relationships, including a breakup that forced me to face a hard truth. Sometimes two people want different futures, and no amount of effort can fix misalignment. I also talk about watching a friend get pulled into a destructive relationship marked by addiction and violence, and the moment I realized that love without boundaries becomes self-abandonment. From attachment and codependency to communication and self-worth, this episode is about learning the difference between the kind of hard that builds something and the kind of hard that slowly erases me.
