Tom’s been married for 26 years and still shows up for his wife like they just matched on Bumble.

Meanwhile, I’ve been with my fiancé Justin for one year, and let me tell you, making a relationship feel fresh takes work. And sometimes window wars at a B&B with screaming guinea hens.

In this episode of Real and Raw Relationships Unfiltered, I sit down with Tom, a husband of over two decades, to talk about what it really takes to keep dating your partner long after the honeymoon phase fades.

We talk about:

✔ Why “date night” is more than just a calendar notification

âś” The intentional moments that keep relationships from dying of boredom

âś” What men actually need to feel emotionally connected

✔ How Justin and I spent our anniversary learning to be present, vulnerable, and romantic even when the A/C is locked at 75 and you can’t raid the fridge past 10 PM

This one is packed with laughs, real stories, and the uncomfortable truths about why so many people stop showing up in their relationships.

This episode is for you if:

✔ You’re sick of the roommate energy

âś” You want connection that lasts past year one and year twenty-six

✔ You’re ready to stop expecting magic and start creating it

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
