What happens when your marriage, your office, your kitchen, and your sanity all exist in the same square footage?

Melis' husband, Shannon (aka Papi), is back on the pod — and they’re getting hilariously honest about what it’s really like to work from home… together. From dining-room Zoom calls to deli-meat crime scenes, they unpack the highs, the lows, and the “please pretend I’m not here from 9 to 2” moments that come with sharing space 24/7.

This episode doesn’t pretend to fix it all — but it normalizes the mess and gives listeners tools and perspective to feel less alone in the chaos.

💡 In This Episode:

  • The kitchen is not a conference room

  • Tips for setting boundaries without setting the house on fire

  • Why needing alone time isn’t personal (even if it feels that way)

  • The power of therapy, meat snacks, and the occasional car call

🎧 Listen now, laugh with us, and share it with your favorite frazzled couple.

And if you’re loving Now What?!, leave us a 5-star review!

(Anything less? Keep it moving. We’re Uber driver rules around here. 😘)

Until next time, Hoops and Glossers — stay sane, set those boundaries, and remember: it’s okay to need space (even from the one you love). 💛

xoxo
