In this special Christmas Eve episode, I sit down with my cousin,
Sarah Rogers, for a heartfelt conversation about her journey
through love, loss, and transformation. From navigating her
twenties to finding her footing in her thirties, Sarah shares
candidly about the lessons she's learned along the way.

We dive into everything: the fears of following love across
continents, the truth about situationships, and the complexities
of cross-cultural marriages. Sarah opens up about her life in
Cambodia, teaching English during monsoon season, and the
surprising joys of solo travel in Vietnam.
She also bravely reflects on her experience with emotional abuse,
the strength it took to file for divorce, and the pride of
rebuilding her life at 25. And just when she thought love might
be out of reach, she found something beautiful: the power of
being truly known and loved.
If you're in your twenties or thirties and feeling the weight of
relationships, grief, or the search for 'the one,' this episode
will speak to you. Sarah's story is a testament to resilience,
growth, and the kind of love we all deserve.
