Relatable with The Roses

Sophia + Bradley Rose www.buzzsprout.com

If you've ever wondered how other couples actually navigate the hard conversations, balance demanding careers without losing each other, or just survive the beautiful chaos of building a life together - you've found your people.

Each week, Bradley (Peloton instructor) and Sophia (business owner) invite you into Casa Rose for the conversations couples have behind closed doors but rarely admit to having. We're talking raw, honest talks about marriage, money, ambition, family planning, and all the messy human stuff you think about in the shower but never say out loud.

Think of it as being a fly on the wall with your most transparent friends. You'll hear them tackle listener questions, share real-time stories from their actual life, get advice from experts who know what they're talking about, and yes - even crash their double dates with some faces you might recognize. This is your all-access pass to a relationship that's figured out how to keep it real and keep it fun.

Welcome to Relatable - where perfect is boring and honest is everything.

Ep 44 | Most Podcasters Wouldn’t Admit This About Building a Podcast… But We Will

This week on Relatable… we’re pulling back the curtain a little. We’re talking about what it actually looks like to build this podcast in real time — while parenting, working, auditioning, being sick, and generally trying to keep our heads above water. From bizarre self-tape instructions and cardboard-tasting protein muffins… to postpartum hair regrowth, podcast growing pains, and the question of whether our show currently has any structure at all — this episode is a very real behind-the-scenes ...
