Life in Black & White (and all the shades in between)

This week, we had the pleasure of interviewing our dear friend, Becky, shedding light on the often unspoken highs and lows of life as a single mum (and motherhood in general). Becky is a remarkable mum to her 6-year-old boy, Zach, whom she's raising all on her own. Frankly, we're in awe of how she manages it all! As you'll discover in this episode, the journey of single parenthood hasn't always been smooth sailing for Becky, but there are a few invaluable strategies that have consistently empowered her to reclaim her strength. Curious to learn her secrets? Tune in!
Oh, and if you enjoy the episode (or any episode), we'd truly appreciate it if you leave us a review. No pressure, though! 😄
Love, Ivana & Yaw

Who knew taking out the rubbish could cause so much...rubbish talk? 
Join us for a hilariously honest chat about dividing household chores as a team. We're talking sinkfuls of dirty dishes, cleaning, battles over cooking, and all the chore wars that leave many couples feeling anything but squeaky clean lol.
We share our own stories of chore chart fails, clever tips that worked, and the communication it takes to keep domestic duties from overtaking your relationship. 
If chore talk has ever caused a dust-up in your marriage, this episode is here to help sweep those conflicts away! ;)
And if not, you will at least have a good laugh. :)
Enjoy!
Love, Ivana & Yaw

Hello, friends!
Grab your favorite beverage and cozy up because we're diving deep into the world of remote work and its impact on marriages.
In this episode, we're not just talking about  Zoom meetings and comfy sweatpants – we're getting real about the nitty-gritty of working from home and how it's shaking up the dynamics of our relationship.
Join us as we give the scoop on the ups and downs of navigating the professional and personal under the same roof.
So, whether you're a seasoned remote worker, a newbie to the work-from-home scene, or just curious about how this new normal is impacting our love lives, tune in for a laid-back chat that's as relatable as it is entertaining. Spoiler alert: You're not alone in your struggles, and we've got the perfect blend of humor and heart to get you through it.
Follow, hit play, and let's explore the wild ride that is working from home – because when it comes to love and remote work, it's all about finding that sweet spot between "I need to focus on this call" and "Honey, have you seen my other sock?"
Or in our case: "Ano, Laska." :)Love, Ivana & Yaw xx
 

In today's episode, we delve into the nuances, delightful moments, and challenges that accompany the tapestry of intercultural marriage. Love is the universal language, but we're here to prove that laughter is the secret sauce to a happily ever after!

So, today's episode? Totally unplanned and spontaneous. We initially had grand plans for a completely different topic, but before we hit the record button, some things went down that left us a bit on edge with each other. We ended up capturing our unfiltered exchange of opinions , and we thought, "Why not turn this into an episode?" So here it is, unfiltered and straight from the heart! 😄

PS. And don't get us wrong, not all our argumetns are sharable :D

In today's episode, we are discussing the ups and downs of parenthood. Now, we won't cover every twist and turn (because that might require an endless episode!), but we're here to tell you that it's perfectly human not to adore every moment of parenting. You know, that "we love them, but..." feeling. 😉

In today's episode, we are introducing our first and VERY special guests - our 7-year-old twin boys, Henry and Mason. (aka H&M :)). We dive into a few different  - and very important - subjects, such as life, school, life as a twin, kindness & respect, or what we all can do to make the world a better place.
Tune in, there's a lot to look forward to!
Love,Ivana & Yaw xx
