How Married Are You?!

Latest Episodes:

My Husband Deleted Me Off of His Instagram #HMAY Ep. 261 Sep 23, 2025

Show notes

A listener married young and in love; years later, pregnant with a toddler at home, she’s watching her husband drift from faith, hide the marriage online, and surround himself with bad influences. Birthdays and Mother’s Days go ignored, passwords are gone, and therapy suggests an ultimatum. Is she clinging to hope—or ignoring what she already knows?

We talk:

🕊️ Redemption starts with repentance and confession—and two willing people.

🚩 Public secrecy is a signal: removing your spouse from socials isn’t “privacy,” it presents you as single—trust what that communicates.

🧭 Gaslighting check: move as if you know the truth, and seek clarity wisely (community, receipts, even a P.I. if safe)—but remember, you can’t unsee what you find.

👥 Character over position: look for someone submitted to mentors, community, and growth; that’s more telling than job titles or labels.

🧩 Forgiveness ≠ reconciliation: you can extend grace without staying; with kids, co-parenting may continue, but covenant requires honesty and change.

Have you ever had to choose clarity over comfort in a relationship? What did repentance look like in real life? Episode 261 is live—tap in and share your story.

I Don't Know if I Can Handle My Husband’s Vulnerability HMAY Ep. 260 Sep 16, 2025

Show notes

PRE-ORDER FATHER YOURSELF FIRST TODAY

Is wanting vulnerability the same as being ready to hold it? A newlywed (90-something days in!) loves her husband but admits his past trauma makes openness slow. Then the Holy Spirit hits her with two checks: “Can you handle what he gives you?” and “Steward well what he gives you.” We unpack what “safe space” really costs: capacity, patience, and practice. 💛

We talk:

🧩 Capacity ≠ desire: Wanting all the feelings isn’t the same as being able to carry them—growth over pass/fail.

📦 Steward what you have: Treat disclosures like a fragile package—follow “handling instructions,” even if unspoken.

🤫 Sometimes love is quiet: Hold space, resist fixing, let him finish, respond later with care.

🧑🏾‍🤝‍🧑🏾 He needs his people: Spouse ≠ only container—think therapist, mentors, men’s community, real accountability.

🛡️ Protect each other & the mission: Boundaries are holy; honesty and safety can coexist.

She Don't Like You Black Brother #HMAY Ep. 259 Sep 09, 2025

Show notes

A brother wrote in after a three-year long-distance rollercoaster where tough talks turned into silence and her parents turned hostile. He prayed for an approval and called it a sign while every other sign said no. We laugh, we side-eye, and we keep it loving but honest. 😂🙏🏾

We talk:

🙅🏾‍♂️ Stop over-spiritualizing dating. God is not a vending machine or a green light on command.

🚫🏠 Racism in your own home is a hard no. You cannot change being Black and you shouldn’t try to survive where you aren’t respected.

🤐 Silence is not depth. Stonewalling and hiding are patterns, not personality quirks.

🎆 Chemistry is fireworks. 🧯 Compatibility is fire safety. Choose the relationship that chooses you back.

🧹 Unfollow, block, and heal. Get a real therapist and find mentors 10 to 15 years ahead in the season you want, where mutual respect is obvious.

Ever turned a red flag into a “sign” and had to course-correct later? Tell us how you knew. Episode 259 is live.

In Case You Forgot Where We Stand on Polyamory... #HMAY Ep. 258 Sep 04, 2025

Show notes

A 27-year-old listener in a three-year poly relationship wants simple guardrails—tell me when you’re out with someone else, if you’re spending the night, and shut it down if they try to edge me out. He resists, agrees begrudgingly, then doesn’t follow through. She’s financially stuck, sharing a cramped place he pays for, and wonders when it’s time to plan her exit. 🛡️💔

We talk:

“You wrote us knowing where we stand. Our counsel is to get out.”
“He wants more. You want depth. What you desire and what you accept are two different things. One has to change.”
“You’re asking for safety, transparency, communication, covering, stability. Those are far easier to build with one person.”
“If you truly want that lifestyle, seek voices who live it. We don’t. Our vision is covenant and wholeness.”
“The goal in marriage is loving each other into fullness. Fragments won’t make anyone whole.”

Have you ever stayed where your needs weren’t respected because leaving felt impossible? What boundary finally moved you toward safety?

I Might Lose a Friend to Gain a Husband #HMAY Ep. 257 Aug 26, 2025

Show notes

Is God’s will bigger than girl code? ✝️

When a listener in her church circle and her friend’s ex catch real feelings, the trio dynamic—and a friendship—hangs in the balance. She’s prayed the feelings away, he confessed he wants to pursue her, and everyone’s watching to see whether wisdom or worry wins. 💔

We talk:

“They didn’t guard their hearts.” Staying close after a breakup kept hope alive and blurred boundaries.
“Church culture can blur the lines.” You can’t call dibs on people, and friendship circles can make feelings messy.
“You want to be with somebody who wants to be with you.” Maturity releases what isn’t yours and resists possessiveness.
“Let the Lord’s voice be the loudest in your ear.” Not girl code or guy code—God’s guidance first.
“You’re free to pursue if it’s mutual.” Ask, “What’s your plan and how will this be different,” and accept that you might “lose a friend for your future husband.”

Have you ever dated within the friend group? How did you balance loyalty and love? Episode 257 is live—tap in and tell us where you draw the line.

Montego Bay, Marriage & Messy Growth #HMAY Ep. 256 Aug 19, 2025

Show notes

What do you do when the man you want to be feels out of reach? 💍🇯🇲

Recorded in Montego Bay while Glen and Yvette celebrate 15 years 🎉, a listener writes in before his own 10-year anniversary: he’s lost motivation, avoids hard conversations, and feels inconsistent in faith and intimacy after weight gain. Without a positive male role model, he’s under a heavy cloud and asking how to lead his family God’s way. ✝️

We talk:Glen shares that year 10 was rough too; therapy in 2020 helped him initiate sex and hard conversations again. 🧠💬
“Father yourself”: restructure your inner voice with accountable self-talk and kindness while you grow the man. 🗣️❤️🌱
Make it practical: schedule sex 📅, commit to a 30-minute walk 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️, and listen to a podcast together to spark real dialogue. 🎧
Progress over perfection: trim TV and gaming 📺🎮, make one right decision at a time ✅, and stop treating growth like a deadline. ⏳
Partnership in real life: give your spouse room to change 🔄, ask specifically for what you need 📝, and contribute to comfort without mind-reading. 🧩

Have you ever rebuilt confidence in the middle of a marriage? 💬 What first step actually moved the needle for you?

Episode 256 is live from Jamaica 🇯🇲 during Glen and Yvette’s 15th-anniversary trip 🎉.

That Girl is NOT Your Friend! #HMAY Ep. 255 Aug 12, 2025

Show notes

What do you owe a friend when romance enters the chat? 💔

A listener matched with a guy and told her girls how excited she was—only to learn weeks later that one of them secretly liked him, talked to him, and went on a date. The friend admitted it only after he ghosted her and showed zero remorse. Now the question is clear: where’s the line between shooting your shot and protecting the friendship?

We talk:

Take inventory: this isn’t the friend you share that kind of news with.
Friend vs. homie: keep the group vibe if you want, but downgrade access to your heart.
If someone says “I’m hurt,” you acknowledge it—even if you disagree.
Loyalty matters: don’t compete with your friends for attention, affection, or “the cupcake.”
Years don’t equal trust: 15 years of history doesn’t excuse shady choices.

Ever had a friend cross the line on dating etiquette? 🚩

I Never Expected My Boyfriend to Rage Like That #HMAY Ep. 254 Aug 05, 2025

Show notes

What happens when the "perfect boyfriend" suddenly explodes? 😳

A listener writes in about her kind, generous dream man—until he shouted, cursed, and loomed over her at 3 AM after she said she felt left out of his hobby-club mixer. Childhood memories of an angry step-dad came rushing back, and now she wonders: if rage shows up once, will it move in after I do? Glen and Yvette weigh safety, trauma, and how much grace is too much.

We talk:

🚩 He played himself—no one should talk to a partner like that, Glen says, urging her to trust the fear signal.

🛑 Glen’s first instinct: leave if he scares you—therapy can’t fix disrespect you tolerate.

🔄 Yvette on trauma stacking and how tiny slights pile up until the midnight blow-up feels massive.

🎯 Glen explains that if he invites you, he needs you in the hobby—not policing him.

🧭 The hosts’ blueprint for clear expectations, compartmentalized friendships, and mentors before marriage.

Have you ever loved someone who seemed perfect—until the anger flared? 💥 What told you it was time to walk away or stay?

Did I Just Dump My Future Wife? #HMAY Ep. 253 Jul 30, 2025

Show notes

Can a prophetic word outweigh chemistry that’s already lit the fuse? 🕯️

One listener writes in torn between a four‑year, on‑again‑off‑again love and the fear he’s missing the real woman God promised. Childhood trauma, church expectations, and a couple of busted boundaries all collide as he wonders: am I the problem—or am I over‑spiritualizing everything?

We talk:

🗣️ Make a decision—then make it right.

🔍 Consider the source: weigh any prophecy against your own walk with God.

🚧 Boundaries only work when you enforce them as the leader.

🧠 Your body doing what it’s designed to do isn’t evil—how you act on it matters.

🕺🏾 Love her to perfection: argue well, get therapy, keep working the plan.

He Made Me Walk Home...Should I Walk Away? #HMAY Ep. 252 Jul 22, 2025

Show notes

Can love survive emotional whiplash and a husband who leaves you on the curb? 😶‍🌫️

One listener kept chasing a woman who ping‑ponged between “just friends” and “let’s try again.” Another rushed into marriage for a missions trip—only to discover her new spouse measures quality time in bedroom minutes and once made her walk home after a joke.

Both are wondering: Am I crazy for calling it quits—or crazy for staying

We talk:
🙏🏾 “You deserve a clear conversation, not constant confusion.”

🛑 Why loneliness inside a relationship can hurt more than being single.

👥 The lifesaving power of accountability and community—don’t partner with someone who avoids both.

🔄 “Make a decision, then make it right—fear can’t drive your love life.”

🗓️ Practical rescue plan: schedule date nights, schedule sex, and get real counseling before calling the movers.

Have you ever begged for clarity—or begged for a simple date night? 💭
