    What No One Warns You About Before Habesha Weddings | Dating, Diaspora, & Double Standards

    In this episode of The Brief Dive, I sit down with my sister and brother-in-law to talk about their Habesha wedding — the beautiful moments and the parts no one really prepares you for. We get real about what actually happens behind the scenes, what they wish they knew before saying “I do,” and what it’s like choosing to marry within your culture. We dive into the pressure, expectations, and endless opinions that come with Habesha weddings — from family input to cultural traditions to navigating boundaries when everyone has something to say. We also talk about balancing love, culture, finances, and sanity while planning a wedding that feels authentic but still respects tradition. But of course… we didn’t keep it serious the whole time.We laugh about wedding chaos, family dynamics, unsolicited advice, and the moments that almost sent everyone over the edge. Real talk, real emotions, and plenty of honesty. If you’re Habesha, planning a wedding, thinking about marrying within your culture, or just curious about what really goes into a traditional Habesha wedding — this episode is for you.

    We Learned Too Much About Each Other This Christmas... | Christmas Cousin Chronicles

    In this episode of The Brief Dive, I’m joined by my cousins for a night of games, laughs, and questions that probably should’ve stayed unanswered. We play Who’s Most Likely To, throw out funny scenario-based questions, and dive into some surprisingly juicy personal topics that reveal way more than just holiday vibes. Between the jokes and call-outs, old childhood stories resurface, family dynamics get exposed, and the conversation shifts from pure comedy to moments that actually make you think. It’s chaotic, hilarious, and real — exactly how family conversations tend to go when everyone’s home for the holidays. If you like honest conversations, playful debates, and seeing what questions really reveal about people… this is the Christmas episode to watch.
