Let’s get one thing straight right from the start. If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve had that kind of day. The kind of day where the sound of his chewing is like nails on a chalkboard, his dirty socks have once again missed the hamper by a country mile, and you’ve found yourself fantasizing…
I remember it so clearly. My husband, Kevin, was sitting on the couch, scrolling through his phone, completely oblivious. I had just spent an hour getting ready for our date night a rare occasion with two kids and I’d even worn the dress he once said he loved. I walked into the living room, did…
If you’re reading this, chances are your heart feels a little heavy today. Maybe more than a little. I’m Amanda Erin, and for a long time, I found myself typing that exact question into a search bar late at night, hoping for an answer that would magically fix everything.

Let’s talk about something that feels both magical and incredibly daunting: figuring out if the person you’re with is the one. You know, your future husband. It’s a question that has probably kept you up at night, analyzing texts, replaying conversations, and maybe even consulting a few too many online quizzes. I’ve been there. My…
Let’s get right into it. If you’re reading this, chances are you’re feeling hurt, frustrated, and maybe even a little lost. I’ve been there. My name is Amanda Erin, and for a while, I felt like my husband, Kevin Clarence, and I were speaking different languages. The little jabs, the dismissive comments, the eye-rolls they…
