New love is easy. Normal love takes work—and a sense of humor when the altitude kicks in.
This episode explores what happens when relationships shift from new to normal—when the spark settles and real life rolls in. We talk about learning not to take things personally when your person is quiet, tense, or off their game, and how pulling ego out of the equation can make room for grace.
We also wander into strangers who overshare in the produce aisle, spontaneous alien questions in public, and whether you’re the kind of person who draws people in—or gives off mildly extraterrestrial energy.
There may have been some stress farts along the way. We regret nothing.
