    S2 Ep: 1 - 11 Love Letters to Him Before I Said Goodbye

    Just two months into their relationship, Ayana made a decision to move to Costa Rica to study abroad.  For many new couples, that kind of distance would be the end. But instead of allowing uncertainty to define their story, Ayana chose intention. Before she left, she wrote Nyles 11 love letters, one for each week she would be away. Each letter carried reassurance, vulnerability, and commitment during a season that could have easily pulled them apart. In this episode, Ayana and Nyles revisit that chapter of their relationship and read four of those letters out loud for the first time together. They reflect on what it means to love someone on purpose, navigate long distance early on, and trust God in the unknown. This episode is about timing, and choosing each other, even when it isn’t convenient.
