I don’t usually talk about my relationship on this podcast. But something came up that I couldn’t let go of.
Someone asked me recently if I was married. And I hesitated. Not because I didn’t know the answer — but because the answer is more complicated than a yes or a no.
We’ve been together 20 years. We’ve met with wedding planners. We had started the budget. We were planning to expand our family. And then my partner was diagnosed with cancer. Everything stopped.
And what that season taught me changed how I see commitment entirely.
In this episode I’m talking about the difference between a certificate and a commitment — because they are not the same thing. A piece of paper cannot make the choice for you. And a piece of paper cannot replace it.
This is between me, my partner, and God. And you don’t have to agree. Period.
