@ecustoms8617 3 года назад

I had a massive stroke last year, its been the biggest mental challenge challenge of my life, husband and children's lives. It took me a while to understand that it wasnt just me but that, my hubb and kids had a traumatic event in their lives too. Married 12yrs, together 18, & everything we know now is new and starting over. I'm learning how to function knowing that even tho im alive, it's like i died. My family misses and deals with parts of me that's no longer here ( mentally). Folks say that my personality is the same but no one feels the trauma & shift more than my hubb who is still choosing to stick by this new person he's getting to know all over again, with almost 20 yrs of life with the same person.. I know and love them all but i had to lean who this woman was and is, at the same time...this show has been helping me so much...

@reikomyles1495 3 года назад

Mental health is an unspoken issue in the black community. We truly have to be openly honest, supportive and unashamed about the struggle with our significant other and or spouse. Life can hit us hard with trauma, how we handle it varies with each individual. Pray to God, get the medical help, meds, counseling whatever it takes to get the illness managed. Most important God is there every step of the way.

@Dgivan09 3 года назад

A lot of people don’t realize nor care to acknowledge the residue they bring from past relationships. They physically move on but emotionally they are still caught up in the issues they never overcame with exes. It can be the simplest thing that triggers them to respond as if you are the ex. It’s so important to heal and show up whole and available mentally, physically and emotionally.

@adrenna1973 3 года назад

I've come to realize that while I can't show up completely healed, I can acknowledge what needs healing and continue to do the work personally. No longer do I hold my partner to heal what is mine. Its not his responsibilty. Simply knowing I have a safe and loving place to land when I'm having a difficult time means the world to me.

@vsims365 3 года назад

This is an excellent show...a lot of people (me) only saw dysfunctional love, but never the “Do the work & see the results” flip side of Love...I’m encouraging people to watch to get these different perspectives early on as some what of a guide through their own Love story...Thanks Codie 😊

What I love about this interview is how deep the couples went in their relationship and mentioned this. I also love the fact that they didn't make excuses and took/take a look at themselves because one of the hardest things in life is too look at yourself. I appreciate that a lot and is one of the biggest things in a relationship whether this is intimate or friendship wise. That's called being transparant, honest and vulnerable. GREAT INTERVIEW👍🏾

Thank you for talking about this, I finally signed up for therapy after hitting rock bottom. I could see that I was self sabatoging and run from a relationship at the first sign of disturbance. After almost losing my future husband, I ran to the first therapist available. My dismissivness came from my childhood.

@shaneen-youtube 3 года назад

This is truly Black Love! The level of depth/support/introspection these couples have for each other is inspiring. I have fought through mental health issues with a man for almost 1 year. He was in denial about the impact that his behavior had on me & our relationship/interactions. Multiple times he brushed off his behavior (snippyness, lack of empathy, callousness, surface conversations, lack of vulnerability) & told me to "get outta your head" or "quit tryna overanalyze everything". I was pushed away multiple times & i finally gave up the fight. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Ultimately I realized, you can't force someone to heal their traumas. They have to be ready & willing to do the work.

@nicolemccray8095 3 года назад

I absolutely love Anthony and Melanie’s relationship. My therapist told me to look for examples of what I desire and seeing them gives me a visual reference of what I knew I desired , but couldn’t quite see. Scott Peck says “Love is the will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth.” Melanie and Anthony went into a situation with the purpose of enjoying themselves and let their intuition guide them towards a relationship that gives them the space to evolve-together. Bless them. Btw I googled them and I will most definitely be signing up for that singles webinar they’re offering . Lol

@melanatedqueen 3 года назад

@@tamarawanjiku oh yes sis, we need to treat them well too honey! They too deserve that. I loved the landmines idea from Anthony & Melanie - allowing each other to handle somethings without the other nagging to hear the gory details. So your man is headed in the right direction. Mine wants to keep a front, I think because he runs a bunch of guys for work - runs a construction company, he used to think that is also who he needed to be with me. Now, (after maybe a year of screaming matchs) I knw he is not the guy he is with me with anyone else but me. He is gentle to the point I knw nobody else has ever seen tht side of him, impossible. He will message to say if he feels it's been forever and he hasn't been missed, he doesn't think twice. "Babe! so what, you just aren't missing me!?" When he needs reassurance he will say so. I think I am open book, but I am not verbal much when it comes to emotions either. After four years my thinking was; you have my house keys, your flat is emptier than a place which is vacant, I have to talk to you abt me leaving home for a week or two & moving across the country with work, we have been together for four years - I used to assume tht was enough for a guy, with zero need for me to say verbally I absolutely adore you. I too have learnt somethings. When he treats you like you are precious to him, only fair we return that favour and continue to learn where we might err. I adore tht man gosh, he is the only human being I have ever been with who I can miss and get physically sick. Like my tummy genuinely hurts, my blood pressure rises & I can't keep anything down kind.

@adrenna1973 3 года назад

The vunerabilty of this is everything. Its so refreshing to see couples talk about trauma from a place of healing versus judgement and shame. When people tell me they don't have disagreements, or don't want to talk about their past, I question it because I know how our past shapes us. There must be some self awareness and a degree of transparency in the beginning. Others always show us who they are. Its our duty to listen, feel and pay attention to what our spirit is conveying...first.

I’m glad that this show is talking about this, because for years it’s been said how black folks don’t do Couseling.

If I need to be healed then I’m gonna work towards that while facing something I’ve been running from my whole life , and that is self. No more trauma over here . Okay let’s normalize more healthier relationships instead of toxicity ones.

Anyway, this panel touched on so many of the issues I saw with him and I tried hard to keep love for him but it was one sided. Long story short, he used me for an experiment. He knew things were going to end before they began. I like the question the host asked about knowing when it is too much. Mental health is so real and rarely considered when choosing a partner. I don't fear love I fear an unstable and selfish mindset in other people.

This was great. The best of the couples. Especially the maturity, transparency, and life experiences. They kept it real.

I do not have the words to adequately articulate how MUCH I appreciate this program and, more specifically, this episode. Ya’ll fed my spirit today! 🖤🖤🖤

Awesome conversation! I love that they each offered insight about themselves, but didn't take too much time to communicate the issues and advice. They allowed each other to talk. Great job! This was very informative.

I’m not sure why I’m sharing this but i promise to see this type of love between two people makes me so full of joy to the point I’m crying just watching this, and although I don’t have this with a natural man this gives me so much hope and faith to believe true love still exist. Thank you for sharing this.

I’ve watched a lot of these episodes & hands-down this is my favorite one. I love how the one man spoke about him loving the ‘little girl’ that shows up in his wife. Lots of really great points throughout this episode! Thank you all!🌟🌟

This was POWERFUL! Much needed! Thank you for the transparency and the deep dive! Keep doing what you're doing! Please do this again with other couples. These 2 couples were perfect for the topic rollout. God bless this precious work!
