In this powerful episode, we unpack the messy truth behind why so many modern relationships are crashing and burning. From endless swiping on dating apps to the unrealistic expectations set by curated social media posts, we’re in a love economy where options are endless—but emotional depth is rare. We get real about the 50/50 relationship myth, the impact of the so-called gender wars, and why comparing your partner to a highlight reel online is sabotaging your connection. We also ask the hard questions: Why is there pressure for women to “prove” love still exists? Why are men expected to contribute less at home? And most importantly, why does no one believe in happily-ever-after anymore?🤌🏽Whether you’re single, bitter, in love, or somewhere in between—this episode challenges everything you think you know about modern love.👉🏽 Leave your thoughts in the comments. Let’s have the conversation.
