"Winging it" is something we've learned to do, both alone and as a couple, and we do it fairly well. It means we make decisions as we go, without getting too caught up with what "could," "might," or "should" happen down the road. Because we always know we can make a new decision. We also give y'all a short update on our travel plans. We've purchased a van and now it's time to turn it into a home on wheels! Can't wait to build it out!

In this unscripted, spur-of-the-moment episode, each of us reveals what we think is the other's pet peeves in our relationship (or "pet peas" as Keith just unlearned). We each offer 5; some were "Mmmm....that doesn't bother me" while others were "Oh yessss!"  Who talks in their sleep? Who  gets consumed by work?

Three weeks into  the self-quarantine lifestyle, we recognize a few struggles, along with a few surprising pluses. Like elsewhere around the world, things are getting real. We aspire to keep looking for a few silver linings.

As we experience voluntary lock-down during the COVID-19 pandemic, we find ourselves getting complacent about things we once took for granted: daily showers, regular exercise, and living room dance parties, for example. Here's how The Complex couple is coping with being house-bound (while recognizing that we have it damn easy compared to many). For more content, visit our website at https://thecomplexcouple.com.

In this episode, hosts Jennifer Hooper and Keith Silva introduce themselves and share why they've launched this podcast. They'll explain what they mean by "experiences, triggers, conversations, and perspectives" as they reveal personal stories from their own lives.
