Question Two: We have to put down my 15 year old lab in a couple weeks and I don't know how to prepare for that kind of loss. His bad days far outweigh his good ones and I only get to see him one last time when I'm home next weekend. What ideas do you have for me to remember him by? (30:51)

2:8 Being a ”Nuanced Mormon” (feat. Ashlie Sanders AKA ”The Nuanced Mormon”)

On today’s episode, we have the privilege of Ashlie Sanders (aka “The Nuanced Mormon”) joining us for a special “nuanced Mormon” episode. Ashlie is a mom of 3 who runs an Instagram account dedicated to being a voice for non-traditional Mormons. Beginning her account as an LGBTQ ally, during which she also officiated her brother and his now husband’s wedding, she realized a need for people of all types within the church- not just the “stereotypical” Latter-Day Saint. Her Instagram now has over 4,000 followers and is dedicated to those who may not always fit the mold. Join us as we dive into some hot topics within the church and try to create an environment that allows every person in our lives to know they are loved and cared about- member or not- and everything in between.

Question One: What do you guys think about all of the TikTok challenges and threats going around schools? Has it affected either of you? What can be done to end this or protect students? (19:00)

Question Two: I just submitted the question about school TikTok challenges. But what is your opinion of kids on social media? (29:08)

Question Three: I noticed my fiance's fyp on TikTok while he was scrolling and his page was FILLED with girls. Some of these girl's outfit choices would make a Kardashians Instagram look like a church pamphlet. I trust him and don't consider it cheating, but part of me wants to confront him. (37:48)

2:6 Having Enough Dating Experience & Being High Maintenance

Ever wonder if you are high maintenance? Or how about your date thinking you aren't doing enough? On this episode we talk about relationship maturity, being too high maintenance, and having the approval of family/friends in order to move forward with your significant other. The dating world is sticky in general, so we hope that this episode clears some of that confusion and frustration up.

 

We also ask that if you have a minute to please leave us a review wherever you are listening. We hope you had a happy holiday and will have the best new year ever!

Question One:

I graduate college soon and have only ever had 1 summer fling that my parents didn't even know about and have never even had a job. I'm starting to feel embarrassed about my lack of life experience in general. I've also never been asked on a proper date. What do I do when I'm asked out and I don't even have a job or other dating experience to talk to the guy about? (22, she/her) 25:20

Question Two: I was watching this week in the bachelorette where they talked about what makes someone high maintenance. The guy said it was a girl who expects her partner to do everything for her and totally shot himself in the foot for saying it. So, what do you guys think makes a person high maintenance? Is it different for males and females? Is it always a bad thing? (32:53)

Question Three:

Do/did you value your family’s opinion of your significant other? Would you break up with someone if your parents/family/friends didn’t approve? (39:30)
