🎙️ Episode 105: Why Relationships Are Terrifying: Navigating What Women Really Want

💀 Love, Communication & Trying Not to Throat-Punch Your Partner Before 8 A.M.

Hey friends 👋 It’s spooky season, and I’m kicking off a brand-new series called “Scary Things I’ve Learned in 2025.” And let me tell you… we’re starting with the scariest of them all — relationships. 😱

From dishwasher diplomacy and emotional mind-reading to the phrase “I’m fine” (aka the stuff of horror movies), I’m diving into what women actually want — and why communication can feel like a haunted house sometimes. 💬🧠

So grab your drink 🍷 (or coffee ☕… or vodka-Red Bull if it’s that kind of day), take a deep breath, and let’s navigate this messy, hilarious ride called love. ❤️‍🔥

✨ Episode Highlights:

💡 It’s not the big stuff — We don’t need grand gestures or fireworks 💥… we just want you to follow through and take something off our mental load 🧠💪

🗣️ Communication isn’t talking — Sometimes we just need to vent. No spreadsheets, no PowerPoints, no “solutions.” Just listen. 👂

💌 Consistency > Confetti — Reliability and effort are way sexier than surprise flowers. 🌹

🚨 Silence isn’t peace — When she stops talking, she’s not calm… she’s detaching. 😬

🛑 Safety > Security — We don’t need heroes with tool belts 🧰 — we need partners who make us feel safe to be emotional and messy.

💬 Vulnerability is terrifying — Love means being seen — and that’s the real spooky part. 👀

🍸 What’s in My Cup

This week’s drink: “True Eff-It” — watermelon Red Bull + vodka 🍉⚡ A chaotic classic that’s been fueling my 2025.

💬 Let’s Be Real

Love evolves. Communication’s messy. None of us have it 100% figured out — and that’s okay. We just want to be chosen, even on the hard days. 💞
