The Love Suite with Steve and Grace

We're kicking off our 3-part gratitude series this November, and we're starting where it matters most: the dinner table.

Thanksgiving hits different when you're first or second-gen. Your parents tried to blend in with turkey and stuffing, but the rice and beans still showed up. The pancit made an appearance. The traditions collided. And honestly? That's the beauty of it.

In this episode, we&apo...

In this episode, we get real about what it takes to love someone from a different culture. From navigating family pressure and religious differences to blending traditions and raising multicultural kids; we break it all down.

This isn't theory. This is our life.

What We Cover:
• Why people date within their culture (and why that's changing)
• The real challenges of multicultural relationships  

Just because you said I do doesn't mean your eyes stop working. Attraction doesn't end when you get married. It just changes what you do with it.

In this episode, we get raw about attraction in marriage. That pull you feel toward someone else. The spark that shows up uninvited. What it's really showing you about yourself and your relationship.

You'll hear the water metaphor. Why someone can look so good when you&a...

Friendship inside love can be beautiful until it starts to feel blurry.

In this episode we talk about what happens when “just a friend” starts sounding different. We unpack boundaries, emotional safety, and how our pasts, cultures, and attachment styles shape what feels threatening or secure in a relationship.

From same sex friendships to coworkers that get too close to nights out with single friends, we get into it all. We look at h...

Storms have hit our marriage. Illness. Betrayal. Grief. Money struggles. Parenting crises. We learned the hardest part is not always the storm itself. It is the aftershocks when the dust settles and you are left asking, what now?

In this episode of The Love Suite Podcast we open up about the storms we have survived. From our son Caleb’s near fatal motorcycle accident to the long road of rebuilding trust after deep breaks. We share h...

In this episode of The Love Suite, Steve and Grace get raw about one of the biggest tests in any relationship. MONEY. From childhood memories of Vienna sausages, rice and ketchup, and balikbayan boxes, to hustling through multiple jobs and checking each other’s bills before marriage, they reveal how money is never just about dollars.

It’s about trust.
It’s about culture.
It’s about intimacy.

They break down how second-gen hus...

Everybody thinks intimacy means sex, but we know it is so much more than that. In this episode we are talking about the everyday ways couples stay connected. The looks across the room, the late-night laughs, the small gestures that say we are still us.

We open up about the different layers of intimacy, physical, emotional, spiritual, and playful, and how Diwa, our soul essence, and Kapwa, our shared humanity, shape the way we love e...

We’ve had some real fights. The loud ones. The silent ones. The “why did I even marry you” ones. But the thing that almost broke us wasn’t the fighting. It was what we didn’t come back to repair.

In today’s episode, we get honest about how long it took us to learn the difference between conflict and disconnection. We share one of our worst arguments, how the strip club, a sudoku puzzle, and a frozen freezer all played a ro...

Back in the day it felt like life was trying to eat us alive. Four kids going in four directions, long shifts, Texas heat, money stress, health scares, no sleep. We were running on empty and drifting from each other without even knowing it. 

In this episode we get real about those years when survival mode had us snapping, shutting down, and questioning if we would even make it. We talk about the chaos, the silence, and the distance ...

🛋️ The Love Suite 

Marriage isn't just romance, cute photos and matching tees. It’s late-night silence. It’s holding on when life hits hard. It’s looking at the person you chose and asking, “Are we still in this?”

In this short welcome, Steve and Grace introduce you to The Love Suite, a sacred, grown-folk space where intimacy, truth, and real love live.
No filters. No pretending. Just two people telling the truth abou...

When that green-eyed feeling hits, do you brush it off… or let it run the whole show? 

You ever catch a look from across the room and feel your whole vibe change?
One second you’re cool, the next you’re in your head like, “What’s she lookin’ at?”

In this episode, we get all the way into it from the side glances, the “friendly” convos that feel a little too close, and the moments that test your patience in long-term love.

We talk:

Some exes are just a memory. Others? Certified clowns who still deserve a side‑eye.

In this episode of We Said It with Steve & Grace, we spill the tea on the exes who talked too much, showed up uninvited, kept tabs like the FBI, tried to train us like a personal project, or straight‑up said the wildest, most disrespectful stuff (looking at you, “You’d be perfect if you lost 10 pounds” guy).

We’re talking:

• Surprise office pop‑i...

We’ve been married for over 20 years through trauma, joy, betrayal, reconnection, parenting four kids, and learning how to love each other (and ourselves) in every version.

This is our origin story: how we met, why we stayed, and what it means to choose your person after everything changes. We talk about love, intuition, heartache, growth, heart attacks, motorcycle accidents, and yes… gas pains.

💥 Real talk. Messy love. Lived truth....

We tried to record a serious podcast intro…
But instead, this happened.

Before we drop the real first episode, here’s a little glimpse behind the scenes - the laughs, the stumbles, and a whole lot of “Wait, what are we saying again?”

This podcast is about real love, real marriage, and real mess-ups so it only makes sense we start with one.

🎙️ We Said It premieres tomorrow.
But for now, enjoy the chaos.
