This is the pilot episode of the podcast. But I enhanced the audio using Adobe's new AI audio enhancer. I think it did a really good job.
A round (well square) table discussion with our friends, Sipho and Thando Hobane, a young married couple like us, on the rather controversial topic of submission. What is it? Does it mean losing one's self? Is it unconditional or earned? Is it a thing in the 21st century?
We've all looked at someone and thought, "I know exactly what they need, I know just how to fix them!". But do we? Can we fix people? Sadly, the answer is no. We can inspire, educate and support them towards change, but we humans simply cannot fix people.
In the words of Heraclitus, "The only constant in life is change." If this is true, why then are we so uncomfortable with change? Why is it so unnerving and scary to embrace and express, and yet, once done, it can be the most liberating feeling ever? In this episode, we discuss change - How it's unavoidable and bigger than that, needed. We need to change to grow and, and we need to grow to live.

In this episode, we discuss money. We talk about our value system, the foundation, which informs how we view and use money. We then tap into the importance of being conscious that two individuals can be at different phases of their financial lives, based on our personal experience being 6 years apart in age, and how to tackle that. Lastly, we give a glimpse into how we use and allocate our money - the system that works for us, and might work for someone else. Enjoy!
The shift from being single and carefree to being in a relationship or from courtship to marriage with someone isn't always a natural and smooth transition. The dynamics change so quickly. Suddenly you begin to share your life with someone and you are accountable to them. Failure to transition in a healthy way can lead to disgruntlement in a relationship which may lead to premature termination of the relationship. In this episode, we explore what it means to be a couple and give a few tips that helped us with our transition.
Life sometimes leads us to unfavourable circumstances. A long-distance relationship is one such example. The temptation is often to throw in the towel and completely give up on the relationship but that need not be. In this episode, we explore how to navigate long-distance relationships. We can say from experience that hard as it might be, it is possible to have a beautiful and healthy long-distance relationship, it just takes being intentional.
Remember the day you first fell in love with your person? How there never seemed to be enough hours in a day for you to say all you had to say to them? Have you watched those warm fuzzies slowly dwindle? How you are both still so in love with each other but it just ain't quite the same anymore? In this episode, we explore why that is.
"Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable." - Bruce Lee
