What's up, family? This is JJ with the Heart of Dating Podcasts. You guys, we have been crushing

some episodes. This is episode seven on the mini-mansoed Fridays. You guys have been so awesome.

This has been super fun for Kate Knight to do. I mean, every single week we have these topics that

pop up out of nowhere that all of a sudden get so much traction and then we just say, hey,

If it's just anger and quench for vengeance, then it's just anger and a quest for vengeance and

trying to make it right. And so what I love about what we do is we will call out everything
