In Love with the Process Podcast

Lance takes us deep into the heart of Puerto Rico this week, solo and unfiltered, as he ventures to the Pearl of the Seas for the wedding of his good buddy J.J. Cotto. In true no-nonsense style, they dive into the messy, beautiful realities of marriage, and peel back the layers between mainland Puerto Ricans—the Nuyoricans—and the islanders whose roots pulse with a fierce, unapologetic passion. It’s not just talk, either. Along the way, you’re treated to the undeniable sounds of the island—a sonic feast that practically demands you break out those noise-cancelling headphones and let the rhythms transport you.As the conversation unfolds, you’ll notice Lance dropping “vibrant” like it’s a mantra. And since we’re cruising through the rum capital of the world, why not honor that with a shot of rum every single time the word flies by? It’s a playful nod to the island’s spirit—a ritual as raw and real as the stories that are shared about the intoxicating warmth that radiates from the people and their surroundings.►Mike’s IG►Lance’s IG ►In Love The Process ►Right Place Right Time Hosted on Acast.
