🤣 🤣  Get ready to laugh your way through relationship real talk! 

In this episode, we're joined by the hilarious duo from the "We're Not Fine" podcast - relationship therapist Dr. Talia Jackson and Doug Jensen - for an unfiltered discussion about those "Is this normal?" relationship questions.

Shanenn, Talia, and Doug dive into:

  • The great memorabilia debate: Is it okay to keep items from past relationships?
  • The Instagram thirst trap dilemma: When does looking become liking?
  • The workplace flirting fear: Where's the line between friendly and flirty?

Don't Miss Moments:

  • "We're all human. And one of the things I think we don't do well in our culture is allow humanness." - on relationship reality checks
  • "If you can't have fun and make light sometimes about serious things, you know, we just gotta lighten the mood sometimes." - on keeping perspective
  • The hilarious algorithm incident that has Doug mysteriously following muscular men cooking with pugs 🐶

Golden Nuggets: 

💎 Transparency and trust are more important than trying to protect your partner from difficult truths 

💎 Every relationship needs its own unique agreements about boundaries 

💎 Growth in relationships often means moving from insecurity to security through open communication 

💎 Sometimes the hardest conversations are the most important ones to have

Action Items from the Episode:

  • Have an open discussion with your partner about relationship boundaries and agreements
  • Practice distinguishing between secrecy and privacy in your relationship
  • Consider whether your social media behavior aligns with your relationship values
  • Remember that what works for one couple might not work for another
