    Ep. 8 'I Love You, But...What If This Ends?'

    In this episode, we sit inside one of the most uncomfortable questions you can ask in a relationship: What if this ends? Not as a threat. Not as a fear spiral. But as a way to tell the truth about what love actually is. We talk about non-attachment, the myth of “being enough,” and why trying to guarantee a future might quietly ruin the present. We get into the tension between deep connection and individual freedom, the reality of single parenting, and the emotional weight of doing life without a safety net. This is a conversation about loving fully without holding on. About staying awake in the middle of it. And about not throwing away something beautiful just because it didn’t last forever.

    Ep. 7 'I Love You, But...I Love You More Than You Love Me'

    In this episode, we unpack the idea of “loving more” in a relationship, the fear of being the one who cares more, and how old patterns show up even when nothing is wrong. We talk about conditional love, emotional safety, communication without games, and the quiet ways we sabotage something good because it feels unfamiliar. This is a conversation about what love looks like when it’s not chaotic… and why that can be the scariest part. You can support the show through our Patreon.

    Ep. 6 'I Love You, But...How's Your Sex Life?'

    In this episode, Daren and Jess talk openly about sex, intimacy, and what it actually means to stay connected in a relationship. What begins as a playful question about their sex life unfolds into a deeper conversation about touch, presence, and emotional safety. They explore how physical affection outside the bedroom can shape intimacy, why feeling safe enough to say “no” is a sign of trust—not rejection—and how unlearning shame around pleasure can transform connection. Along the way, they reflect on the difference between performative sex and true presence, the subtle ways couples drift apart, and the small daily acts of affection that keep love alive.

    Ep. 5 ' I Love You, But... I Don't See How This Works'

    In this episode, Daren and Jess explore the tension between desire and responsibility. They talk openly about wanting a baby together while knowing it would disrupt the lives they’ve already built with their children. They unpack cultural milestones like marriage, cohabitation, and “what’s next,” and question whether love requires them at all. They confront the reality of blended families, honoring their children’s voices over their own romantic impulses. The episode becomes a conversation about restraint, choosing love without ownership, and building a relationship that works for everyone involved — even if it doesn’t look traditional. It’s a mature look at love after divorce. Love with brakes built in. Love that doesn’t bulldoze. You can support the show through our Patreon.

    Ep. 4 ‘I Love You, But...I Don't Know How To Receive All That You Are Giving.'

    In this episode, we unpack unconditional love and the difference between giving freely and giving with strings attached.

    Ep. 3 'I Love You, But...I Struggle With Your Past.’

    In this episode, we talk about jealousy, exes, and the stories our ego tells when we compare ourselves to ghosts. We explore clean endings, emotional ownership, and why loving someone fully means honoring the life they lived before you. We frontloaded the awkward. We talk about manipulation. We talk about insecurity. We talk about truth in real time. And we ask the question: How much of our past do we owe one another? You can support the show through our Patreon.

    Ep. 2 - 'I Love You, But... I am Afraid I am Going To Lose You.'

    A vulnerable confession turns into a loving debate about where love actually lives — is it in the person we cherish, or within ourselves. Daren fears losing Jess because he loves her deeply. Jess believes that love isn’t something that can be taken away. Together, they explore attachment, mortality, and the difference between love and fear. You can support the show through our Patreon.
