In Episode 8 of the Situationships Podcast, hosts Cylla, Brandon, and Iris dive deep into what it means to want marriage in a world built on situationships. Is marriage still the dream—or has the blueprint changed? From Rihanna & A$AP’s rumored marriage and prenup talks to the new-age trend of living together, sharing bills, and skipping the vows altogether, our generation is asking real questions: Is marriage a goal or just another chapter? Do I need a contract if we already built a life? What does financial compatibility really look like in a committed partnership? As Iris puts it: “Sometimes people in our generation don’t want to put themselves out there by saying they want to get married.” We also welcome Katiana Farrier, founder of Slept On Creatives, who gets real about being a newlywed, overcoming seasons of doubt, and why betting on yourself—in love and in career—is always worth it. She opens up about what it means to finally feel seen, how to choose the right partner, and the dealbreakers she couldn’t ignore on her journey to “I do.” Whether you're pro-prenup, anti-marriage, or somewhere in the middle, this episode will challenge what commitment means in 2025.
