Awesomeness
Thank you Emily n Max for facilitating great conversations with beautiful people that I can absorb and learn from. I’ve always been curious about this topic and here is an accessible resource in the most pleasant package - you both and all of your guests are people I would be friends with🌻 (ep. 3 Isabel is me)
Can’t wait for more!!!
An enlightening and thoughtful way to figure out if marriage is the right move! Whether or not you’re considering marriage yourself, if you’re a pragmatist and love Pros and Cons lists, this show is for you.
Honestly this has been one of the most impactful podcasts I have ever listened to. I have devoured the episodes and listened to too many twice over. It's really had a big impact on how I think about dating and marriage at a critical time in my life.
I have loved these first two episodes. This couple seems truly engaged in an authentic investigation and I love listening to a podcast that has real stakes to it!!
