Falling in love is magic, but staying in love? That’s where the work begins. This week on In the Nude, I’m joined by special guest Archie to explore the nuance, tenderness, and emotional strength it takes to hold love over time, especially within the context of Black love, Black boy joy, and emotional wellness.

We talk about what happens beyond the honeymoon, how to communicate without ego, and why emotional safety for Black men isn’t just important, it’s necessary. From the blooming friendship that sustains intimacy to the unspoken challenges of conflict and self-sabotage. We unpack the real art of staying.

In this special Pride Month episode, I’m joined by the one and only Tinkerbell

A magnetic dancer, content creator, and a force in the UK’s Black voguing scene✨

We dive into Black queer joy, love, visibility, and the power of movement as storytelling. Tinkerbell opens up about healing their younger self, finding softness in queer love, and the quiet resilience it takes to stay seen in a world that tries to look past you.

This one’s full of sparkle, soul, and truth-telling.

Pride is protest, but it’s also play and this conversation holds both.

This episode is a full-on vibe check with a couple who keep it all the way raw.

No performance. No pretense. Just a relationship made from scratch held together by truth, not trends or filters.

They started as friends and built something solid from the very first collab. Now, they’re navigating love on their own terms while tuning out the noise from family, friends, and social media. We talk pressure, partnership, and what it takes to stay rooted in each other when everyone else has an opinion. Tune in.
