My Healthiest Love Ever Is An Age Gap Marriage - with Jackie Adedeji
from The Weird Years · host Lydia Vornweg
What if being ‘too much’ was never the problem - you were just with people who couldn’t hold you?This week I’m joined by the stunning, vivacious and straight‑up hilarious Jackie Adedeji– the broadcaster and girls’ girl from Instagram known for her unapologetic empowerment and gentle roasting of her “older middle‑class white man” husband.We talk about the one decision in her twenties that changed everything in her thirties: starting therapy. Not as a quick fix, but as the slow, uncomfortable work that reshaped her self‑worth just enough that when she met her husband, she was able to give him a chance at something serious. This is about the complexity of how self-esteem might show up and a story to decide to follow love even when it shows up in a package you did not expect to find. We get into...✨ Feeling publicly confident but privately feeling shame that she was "too much"✨ The truth of therapy as a turning point – and not a quick fix✨ Ditching dating and situationships for a deep sense of self‑respect✨ The honest dynamics of an age-gap relationship which people often want to shy away from ✨ What it's like to be living with the knowledge you'll likely end up a window much earlier than most If your on the brink of booking that therapy sesh, or maybe love just showed up in a package you did not expect and your nervous, then girl, TAP IN.
