In this episode of Romance Unleashed, Mel sits down with the radiant and honest Jodi-Kay to explore the many layers of reading romance as a form of healing, empowerment, and self-discovery. From unpacking the strength of morally grey heroines to navigating trauma through triggering reads, they dive into what it means to be a woman of faith who also embraces pleasure, desire, and stories not written through the male gaze. This one’s for anyone who’s ever wondered if they’re “too much” or “not enough.” Spoiler: You’re exactly who you’re meant to be.
