Every episode of the Relationships. You Understand? Podcast is filled with testimonies, tools and strategies to help you stop arguing with your partner and have more sex. A better relationship starts with a better you.

Are you partners or just roommates?

Tired of just coasting through your relationship? If you’re feeling like ships passing in the night, it’s time to clear out the emotional clutter and get real with each other.

No fluff, no fake smiles—just the truth about where you stand and what it takes to move forward, together. If you’re ready to do the work, this series is your blueprint.

  • Love isn’t always enough. Are you still each other’s person, or just living under the same roof? This one question could break open everything.

    Listen here!

  • Your values are the foundation. Are you building a life together, or are you two worlds apart? Time to get real about it.

    Listen here!

  • Enough with the vague “someday” goals. What are you actively working toward, together, right now? Let’s set some real intentions.

    Listen here!

  • No sugarcoating here. Let your partner tell you how they really see you. It’s raw, it’s real, and it might just be the wake-up call you need.
