  • The Truth About Love After Kids

    The Truth About Love After Kids
    Sep 23 2025
    They say having kids changes everything, but what often goes unspoken is how much it changes a marriage. In this raw and unfiltered conversation, Scott and Collette Stohler of Roamaroo share how their relationship shifted after becoming parents, the unexpected grief for the life and connection they once had, and how they’re learning to find their way back to each other. From navigating emotional labor to moments of feeling like co-workers instead of partners, they explore the unspoken truths of love, resentment, and intimacy in parenthood. With equal parts vulnerability and hope, this episode is a must-listen for anyone wondering if their relationship will ever feel like it used to, and why maybe that’s not the goal after all.
