Are relationships supposed to be THIS Hard? This week on LOVERS, Shan sits down with Glen and Yvette Henry, the couple behind the viral family brand Beleaf in Fatherhood. Glen, known as Beleaf, has a new book coming out titled Father Yourself First, which challenges men to approach fatherhood as a path of healing, self-awareness, and personal accountability. In this conversation, Glen and Yvette open up about how hard marriage can be, especially after kids, success, and faith transitions. From getting married young to raising four children and growing a public platform together, they've faced nearly every challenge that tests a couple's foundation. If you've ever wondered, “Is marriage supposed to be this hard?”, this episode is for you. It's a raw and honest reminder that struggle doesn't mean failure, it means growth. ✨ Preorder Glen's book: https://www.amazon.com/Father-Yourself-First-Everything-Deserves/dp/1400252555

Shaun Peterson's film documentary investigates the evidence that Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, would today be considered bisexual or queer (interviewed by Brian DeShazor).
Every believer carries a different expression of God's nature, but few ever discover which one defines their calling. Some are Lovers, driven by intimacy and compassion. Others are Warriors, built to confront darkness and take territory. Then there are Statesmen, positioned to shape culture and influence nations. When you learn to walk in all three dimensions, you step into a powerful convergence where your authority, wisdom, and devotion align to fulfill God's purpose for your life.

In this episode, Melissa Peters reveals the feminine way to get what you want in love — not through chasing, fixing, or forcing, but through your energy, embodiment, and presence.Melissa shares the moments in her own life and marriage that taught her the art of detachment, trust, and feminine magnetism — how letting go and opening her heart transformed everything.

Who's ready to be met, led, and loved — without losing herself.If you've been the one holding everything together, always in control, and craving a deeper connection… this episode will remind you of your power, your softness, and what's possible when you let yourself be the feminine.You'll learn:

Listener discretion is advised. What happens when a core memory rewrites the story of how we see ourselves in love?

André's story reveals how early wounds can guide not just who we choose, but how we let love in. Whether you're single, partnered, or somewhere in between, this episode is a powerful guide to: uncovering the underlying stories behind your intimacy rewriting beliefs that no longer serve you opening the door to deeper, more authentic connection

What happens when teenage love, late-night parking, and a hook-handed killer collide? Today, Amber and Gina dive into one of the most chilling urban legends of all time—The Hookman. You've probably heard the story whispered around a campfire: a couple parked at Lover's Lane, a news bulletin about an escaped asylum patient, and a bloody hook left hanging from the car door. But did you know this legend is rooted in real crimes?From the 1946 Texarkana Moonlight Murders to the rise of parental scare tactics in the 1950s, this episode unpacks the terrifying origins of The Hookman, why the story spread like wildfire, and how it's been passed down as both a cautionary tale and horror folklore. Expect creepy narration, sarcastic commentary, and a deep dive into how real fear inspired one of America's most enduring legends.

Horror doesn't hand down commandments from a mountaintop; it scavenges from headlines, folklore, and fear, then welds those scraps into images we can't shake. We open the vault on a Halloween favorite to map where the genre's “rules” actually come from—Lover's Lane, masks without faces, babysitters on the edge, clowns that cross lines, and formless things that fall from the sky. The trail starts with the Texarkana Moonlight Murders and the media-born “Phantom Killer,” threads through the brutal, under-told case of Janet Christman and the babysitter myth it spawned, and crystallizes in Halloween's The Shape: a mask that erases humanity so audiences can bear the unbearable. From there, we unpack how Ed Gein's grotesque artifacts overwhelmed facts to seed Psycho, Texas Chainsaw, and Silence of the Lambs, proving horror borrows objects and builds archetypes. And that's just scratching the surface.

James Bleckley of the Oldest Stories Podcast sits down with Nathaniel Heutmaker of the Grail Sciences Podcast to discuss this ancient tale from both an historical and an occult perspective. The Grail Sciences Podcast covers the deeper meaning of the Holy Grail and a variety of occult topics. Nathaniel is deeply read in a variety of world traditions, and expertly weaves it all together over at grailsciences.com/The Oldest Stories Podcast covers the history, myth, and culture of ancient Mesopotamia, from the invention of writing until the fall of Nabonidas. James has been filling out the story of the oldest civilization for over 6 years at oldeststories.net

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this episode! — This week, I interview Lilly Singh, actor and history-making content creator, with a new movie RIGHT up our alley: Doin' It (yes it's a movie about sex, specifically what happens when a South Asian virgin is assigned to teach sex ed). In this episode Lilly opens up about growing up in a world where emotional chaos felt familiar, why she kept gravitating toward toxic partners who gave her the bare minimum, and how she's now doing the inner work (therapy, inner child healing, setting boundaries) to protect “little Lilly.” In this conversation, we explore how past wounds shaped her romantic choices, and how she's rewriting that story one day at a time.

What even is intimacy with God—and how do you actually grow in it without feeling like you're just “doing more stuff”?To launch Season Eight, I'm sitting down with my longtime friend, Euphemia Heufelder—intercessor, prophetic voice, and author of Every Lover's Journey. She's the real deal when it comes to walking closely with the Lord, and in this conversation she pulls back the curtain on what intimacy with God looks like in real life.You'll hear stories from Euphemia's own journey (including her work with incarcerated youth and leading her church's Freedom Team), and you'll learn:The surprising ways intimacy with God shows up in everyday lifeThe biggest barriers that keep us from closeness (and how to push through them - things like comparison, unworthiness and rejection)Why the Holy Spirit is your best teacher in cultivating intimacyPractical, doable steps to grow in confidence that you can hear God's voiceThis isn't another “try harder” message—it's an invitation. If you've felt distant, unworthy, or unsure how to move from religion into relationship, this episode will remind you: intimacy with God is for you.CONNECT WITH EUPHEMIA:Get her book: https://a.co/d/g72vaDy--------------------------------------• Join me in Greece on a special trip with my listeners!

Award-winning journalist, author, and podcaster Jemele Hill joins Shan for a conversation about how she uncovered the connection between stress, rest, and desire in her own marriage. She shares why her husband seems to get luckier when they're away, how that awareness has deepened their relationship, and what it taught her about the balance between ambition, partnership, and intimacy. This episode is for my overachievers who struggle to “do it all,” for the happily partnered (or hoping-to-be), and for anyone who's ever wondered how to bring that vacation spark back home. Together, Jemele and Shan break down: - Why “having it all” is a myth (and the price women pay for chasing it) - How silence around stress robs intimacy, and what to do instead - What “fair trade” in the home has to do with mutually desirable sex - Practical ways to bring vacation sex energy into everyday life
