In this week’s episode of Own Your Piece, I’m bringing on a very special guest—my husband, Kelly Thueson! 🥰 We’re getting real and raw about our love story—from meeting at a dance club (yes, we were those people) to getting engaged and building a life together.

We talk about what it really takes to make a relationship work: communication (like, actual honest convos), navigating outside noise, and understanding each other’s love languages. We also dive into the harder stuff—how we've grown together through the messy moments, how we parent differently (and sometimes disagree), and how our intimacy evolved after leaving the church.

This convo is honest, vulnerable, and full of laughs (because if you can’t laugh with your partner… what even is the point?!). Whether you're newly married or decades in, we’re sharing the things that have helped us stay strong, stay in love, and stay committed to the commitment.

Some juicy takeaways from this episode:

  • Candid convos > silent assumptions
  • Your love languages matter more than you think
  • Communication is everything (yes, even during the tough stuff)
  • Boundaries with the outside world protect the inside
  • Celebrating each other is underrated—do it more
  • Forgiveness isn’t a one-time thing—it’s a practice
  • Intimacy after religious deconstruction can be freeing and fun
  • Planning a future together keeps you moving in the same direction
  • Friendship is the secret sauce in marriage
  • And sometimes... the little moments become the big ones

Can’t wait for you to tune in. This one’s for the lovers, the fighters, and the ones figuring it out along the way 💛
