Ep 901: Miss to Mrs. Feat Bradley Stokes

FROM MISS TO MRS. 💍We know Nia’s side of the story… but what was it like falling in love with her from Bradley’s perspective? 👀For the Season 9 premiere, we’re getting ALL in the newlyweds’ business! Bradley joins us to tell their love story through his eyes, from navigating long distance and learning how to communicate with each other to the moments that made him realize Nia was the woman he wanted to marry.And of course, we had questions. 😂 When did he KNOW she was the one? What did loving Nia teach him? How did they work through the miscommunication that comes with building a real relationship? And most importantly… did Nia start acting a little bratty right before the proposal like women somehow always do?! 😂This one is funny, honest, romantic, a little messy, and a beautiful look at what it takes to go from dating to “I do.”Welcome back, Auntie Fam.

Sometimes the best conversations are the ones that don’t stay on one topic.This week, we’re having a good old-fashioned girl talk session. We talked about finding your voice and standing up for yourself, navigating relationships, getting older, setting boundaries, knowing what you’re willing to do (and what you’re absolutely not willing to do), and so much more.No agenda. No script. Just two best friends catching up, laughing, sharing stories, and having the kind of conversation that feels like you’re sitting at the table with your favorite aunties.If you’ve ever needed a reminder.🪩 Nia’s Bachelorette Party: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/nias-virtual-bachelorette-party-tickets-1990698664293?aff=oddtdtcreator💍 Celebrate With Nia Honeyfund:https://www.honeyfund.com/site/stokes-smith🎁 Shammy’s Birthday Wishlist:https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/30K6TOMCV6IMI?ref_=wl_share🎙️ Join Patreon (bonus & exclusive episodes):https://Patreon.com/YourFavoriteAunties✨ Shop Merch:https://YFAShop.com💖 Support the Show:PayPal: https://paypal.me/yfaPodCashApp: $YFAuntiesPodZelle: [email protected]📺 Subscribe:https://YouTube.com/@YourFavoriteAuntiesPodcastFollow us:https://instagram.com/YourFavoriteAuntiesPodhttps://instagram.com/ShamarianRobinsonhttps://instagram.com/_NiaDanielle📬 Mail:1321 Upland Dr. #10361Houston, Texas 77043See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Confidence. Modesty. Purity culture. Femininity. Being “sexy.” Whew… yeah, the Aunties went THERE. 👀✨This week, we’re unpacking what confidence REALLY looks like as women of God — how we gained it, what tried to destroy it, and why so many women have been taught to shrink themselves in the name of “holiness.”Can Christian women be confident AND attractive? Is being “sexy” automatically sinful? Did purity culture help us… or hurt us? And why are so many women struggling to feel beautiful without guilt attached to it?We’re talking body image, self-esteem, modesty, church culture, femininity, confidence journeys, and learning how to exist fully without shame.This conversation is honest, funny, layered, and probably gonna start some debates in the comments 👀 so grab your homegirls and let’s talk about it.💍 Celebrate With Nia Honeyfund: https://www.honeyfund.com/site/stokes-smith🎁 Shammy’s Birthday Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/30K6TOMCV6IMI?ref_=wl_share🎙️ Join Patreon (bonus & exclusive episodes): https://Patreon.com/YourFavoriteAunties✨ Shop Merch: https://YFAShop.com💖 Support the Show: PayPal: https://paypal.me/yfaPod CashApp: $YFAuntiesPod Zelle: [email protected]🎟️ Tour & Live Show Updates: https://yourfavoriteauntiespodcast.com/family-reunion-tour📺 Subscribe: https://YouTube.com/@YourFavoriteAuntiesPodcastFollow us: https://instagram.com/YourFavoriteAuntiesPod https://instagram.com/ShamarianRobinson https://instagram.com/_NiaDanielle📬 Mail: 1321 Upland Dr. #10361 Houston, Texas 77043Don’t forget to like, comment, subscribe, and send this episode to somebody who’s still healing from purity cultureSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
