    Adult friendships are a whole different vibe… and we’re unpacking ALL of it 🍷🎙️In this episode of Poured & Unfiltered, we’re getting real about how friendships shift as you grow, become parents, and start protecting your peace. From the “I texted you back in my head” phase 😅 to navigating friendships with and without kids, we’re talking about the unspoken rules no one really says out loud.We’re also diving into how our idea of a “good night” has completely changed (goodbye club, hello wine on the couch 🍷), why some relationships naturally fade, and what it actually means to maintain long-term friendships as life evolves.Plus… we’re bringing the chaos with a rapid-fire “Would You Rather” segment that might expose a few things 👀If your circle looks smaller, your priorities feel different, and your group chats hit a little less frequently—this one’s for you.Pour your drink, get comfortable, and let’s get into it. 🍷

    This one? Yeah… we’re talking MONEY 💸In this episode of Poured & Unfiltered, we’re getting real about money mindsets—the habits that keep you stuck vs the ones that actually build wealth. And trust… it’s not just about how much you make 👀We’re breaking down:* How we were raised around money (and how it still shows up)* Broke habits vs wealth habits (and yes… we called ourselves out 😅)* Ego purchases vs intentional spending* Lifestyle creep (because why do we make more but still feel broke??)* How we actually manage our money as a couple—his, hers, and OURSAnd listen… we are NOT the couple sending Venmo requests for the light bill. Absolutely not 😂We also get a little unhinged with a “Would You Rather: Money Edition” that might’ve exposed us more than we planned…If you’ve ever:* Wondered where your money is actually going* Felt tension around finances in your relationship* Or realized your “broke” just upgraded outfits…This episode is for you.Pour a glass 🍷 and let’s get into it.

    Season 2, Episode 5 - Paycheck vs. Purpose

    Be honest… are you chasing your dreams… or your direct deposit?This episode of Poured & Unfiltered is a little too real. We’re diving into purpose vs paycheck—and exposing ourselves (and probably you too) in the process.Because let’s be real:Some of us are “walking in purpose”…and some of us are clocking in for survival.We get into the pressure of doing what you love vs doing what pays, how life (and kids) shift your priorities, and why not everyone is meant to turn their passion into a career.And the ending?Let’s just say the “Would You Rather” questions might start an argument or two.Pick your struggle. 🍷

    Season 2, Episode 4 - Plot Twist: Athlete to Head Coach

    In this episode of Poured & Unfiltered, we’re taking it back to where it all began. From meeting in 2018—when Tay was a junior in college and Becky was stepping into her first season coaching—to navigating the unique (and sometimes complicated) dynamic of athlete-to-coach… this story has layers.We’re unpacking the early days, the transition from athlete-to-coach to eventually coach-to-coach, and what it looked like getting to know each other during some of the most chaotic seasons of life. From long days in the gym to growing through pressure, expectations, and big career moments—this journey has been anything but ordinary.We also dive into Tay’s evolution into a head coach at Long Island University—what that transition looked like, the challenges that came with stepping into leadership so early, and the pride that comes with building something of your own. From athlete to leading a program, it’s a full-circle moment that we’ve all had a front row seat to.And of course, Marcus has been part of the story from the very beginning—building relationships with Tay and her family long before everything evolved into what it is today. From sitting with her parents at meets to coaching alongside each other, those connections run deep.From shared sidelines and competitions to unexpected moments that brought us closer, this episode is full of real, unfiltered memories, a little chaos, and a lot of growth.Pour yourself a drink and come hang with us—this one is personal. 🥂

    Season 2, Episode 3: The Calm Between the Chaos

    Episode 3 of Poured & Unfiltered is a whole mix of chaos, laughs, and real-life parenting moments—just the way we like it. 🍷What started as a rare calm weekend quickly turned into sick kids, unexpected curveballs, and a reminder that parenting will always keep you on your toes. We’re talking about those “level unlocked” moments—like starting to think about preschool (how are we already here?!), balancing it all, and figuring things out as we go.We also share what it looks like prepping for time away from the kids (hello, mixed emotions), soaking up that Vegas sunshine before the chaos, and embracing the unpredictable reality of this season of life.It’s honest, relatable, a little unhinged, and full of the moments every parent gets but doesn’t always say out loud.Pour yourself a drink and join us for Episode 3.
