Season 3 - Episode 5 - Is it real or fake? Can we ever just keep it real?  That's the question Francine and Geoff are trying to answer.  With social media and all of the filters, to how you show up in life or at work, it seems like we can never really be ourselves.

Are you the ride or die type? What does protect and provide look like these days? All things considered, a conversation was had. Thanks to our "partner in crime" @geoff briley, we were able to hear and share both sides of the gender roles. Listen in as we go into roles of modern relationships 50/50….or no?
