Summary
Let’s talk about something most of us have felt, but rarely say out loud…
Are we giving wife energy before there’s any real commitment?
I’m back with my soul sister Nadine Lee for part two of our raw and honest convo—and this time, we’re getting into it on all things marriage, moving in together, wifey mode, and what real commitment actually looks like.
You can be living like a wife before he’s ever claimed you. And then wonder why the relationship feels stuck, uninspired, or full of pressure.
Here’s what we get into in this juicy part 2:
→ What “wifey mode” really is—and how to know if you’ve unconsciously fallen into it
→ The subtle way living together too soon kills polarity and motivation
→ How to maintain your own space (and energy!) while still being deeply connected
→ Why moving in isn’t the same as being claimed
→ What to look for beyond the ring to know if he’s really showing up
→ How to honor your timeline
→ The truth about divorce, and why we need to ask ourselves—could I lovingly separate from this person if it came to that?
This conversation is honest, nuanced, and full of those little lightbulb moments that make you go—ohhh, THAT’S what I’ve been feeling.
