What happens when you prepare for marriage but realize no one ever taught you how?
In this raw and reflective episode, I share thoughts recorded in real time after watching a film that stirred grief, memory, and deeper questions about love. As I approach marriage, I reflect on losing my mother at a young age, growing up with warnings instead of relational modeling, and navigating engagement without clear examples of what a healthy marriage looks like.
This episode explores:
• Grieving a parent while preparing for marriage
• Generational relationship gaps
• The difference between warnings and wisdom
• Christian upbringing and relational blind spots
• Counseling, healing, and unlearning
• 1 Corinthians 13 and agape love in practice
• Learning love through trial, error, and surrender
If you’ve ever felt like you’re building something without having seen it built well, this reflection is for you.
