This podcast is not – and I repeat is NOT – a blueprint for love, marriage nor relationships. It simply describes the shared experiences between a couple of 30-somethings maneuvering through modern day – juggling marriage, parenting, spirituality, and careers – all while managing to still like each other. Like, really like each other.

Christopher G. and Jazmune Jenkins
