We set out to have balanced talks, share some laughs, and impart relationship lessons, but it turned into so much more. The open and thoughtful dialogue in each episode encouraged vulnerability, reflection, and growth not just for us, but for thousands of you listeners as well.

While we may be signing off for now, remember that each ending opens the door for new beginnings. We hope you'll carry the lessons from Wonderland with you moving forward and pay them forward. Perhaps our paths will cross again down the rabbit hole someday soon.

Having “the talk” to determine if you and your potential partner are on the same page about relationship hopes, expectations, and boundaries is crucial, yet often awkward. When is the optimal time to initiate this critical conversation before assumptions derail a promising connection's growth? This episode discusses how defining the relationship too hastily can activate avoidant behaviors. However, clear communication early on alleviates ambiguity about needs and compatibility. This episode offers guidance on broaching topics like time spent together, integrating with friend groups, social media habits, expressions of intimacy, future goals, and unusual deal breakers. While no magic formula exists, typically these talks happen once mutual care is established but before attachments form. Your unique pace and priorities should drive timing. We hope to provide advice on framing discussions in constructive ways that honor each person's expectations. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/throughthelookingglass/message
Do you ever feel like new relationships accelerate from 0 to 60 before you even put on your seatbelt? One minute you're in “just talking” territory, the next there's a toothbrush at their place and they're booked to meet your family at Christmas. Or does the pacing drag like molasses, plagued by ambiguity, hesitation and walls up high? What defines healthy pacing when you're getting to know someone new? How can you even tell in those critical early stages if this thing has the velocity to go the distance or will inevitably run out of fuel...or worse, crash and burn? In this episode, we're talking about the speed of new relationships. We'll map the major milestones, discuss red and green flags for alignment potential, and teach you how to pump the brakes or hit the gas according to your own needs and compatibility. Relationships falter when we silence our authentic voices, so make sure you are using yours. Only you can dictate the right speed limits for your journey. Let's make sure you end up safely at your desired destination. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/throughthelookingglass/message
Dating can be hard enough as it is. But when you also live with mental health struggles, it can bring added layers of complexity to an already tricky landscape.

In this episode, we'll hear from folks who have been there. Like many, they once saw their mental health status as a liability in finding love, but they've since learned how to approach dating in a healthy, empowering way.

In this episode of Un:Scripted we welcome Ress and Ashley from the SheWolf Alchemy Podcast to discuss the importance of balancing masculine and feminine energy in our lives, both internally and externally. These lovely ladies join Michelle, Keisha, and Dani as we discuss the concept of masculine and feminine energy.

However, the narrative of Black women being too masculine has caused an ongoing rift between men and women.

This episode, much like all the Mad Hatter episodes, will be exploring some graphic stories and details that may be a trigger so please consider your own trauma stories and experiences when deciding to listen. Mad as a Hatter. Do you know the story behind the phrase? The insanity behind the character? The phrase was used to describe someone who's crazy or prone to unpredictable behavior. Between the 18th and 19th centuries, hatters used Mercury in their creations. The Mercury poisoning resulted in what was believed to be insanity and chaotic behavior; thus, “Mad as a Hatter”, was born. The following stories are my picks for further discussion. How the impact of mental health, relationship challenges, and circumstances can lead to murder. While it goes without saying that a mental health diagnosis does not create a murderer. However, in these cases, a diagnosis left untreated, the opportunity, and the right catalyst can create a monster. Won't you come with me as we enter Wonderland After Dark? Don't worry, it won't hurt. Episode 4 John Allen Muhammad This episode is dedicated to the victims of John Allen Muhammad and Lee Malvo (known and unknown) A memorial to the victims of the D.C. area sniper attacks is located at Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, Maryland.[An additional memorial was constructed in 2014 in the government plaza of Rockville, Maryland.
