Marriage doesn’t always look the way we were told it should. In this episode of The Scarlet Edit, I talk with Mike Messeroff, a personal freedom coach who’s been married for 16 years — and polyamorous with his wife for the last seven.

Mike opens up about what it takes to navigate polyamory inside a marriage, from facing jealousy to setting boundaries to discovering that freedom requires discipline. We talk about how self-awareness, communication, and honesty are the foundation of any relationship — monogamous or not.

We also explore the spiritual side of love: non-attachment, expansion, and choosing your partner every single day. Whether you’re curious about polyamory, questioning traditional marriage, or searching for a more authentic way to love, this conversation will challenge the myths you’ve been told and open the door to new possibilities.

I couldn’t resist dropping a bonus episode today because our community created something amazing. I asked listeners on Instagram for their favorite breakup songs, and the result is The Scarlet Edit Listener’s Breakup Playlist, now live on Spotify and Apple Music.

In this episode, I share my love of lyrics, why music feels like poetry set to sound, and how certain songs transport us back to pivotal moments in our relationships. I talk about building playlists during my own breakup, the songs that carried me through heartbreak, and how music connects us to one another’s stories.

If you’ve ever put a song on repeat after a breakup, this episode is for you.

🎶 Playlist links are linked Spotify and Apple Music!

In this episode of The Scarlet Edit, I sit down with Leah Mazur, founder of Mindfully Ready and The Next Chapter, to talk about the realities of divorce, love, and self-discovery. Leah has been divorced three times—and instead of shame, she has built a powerful community helping women release guilt, rebuild confidence, and create a future that feels authentic.

We cover:

• Why society still stigmatizes divorce, especially for women
• The hidden costs of marriage and divorce nobody talks about
• How abandonment shaped Leah’s patterns—and how she finally broke them
• The turning point after her second divorce that changed everything
• Boundaries, self-talk, and how to shift from people-pleasing to self-value
• Dating after divorce with higher standards and zero desperation
• What it means to see relationships as reason, season, or lifetime
• How to navigate divorce with kids while minimizing shame and fear

This episode is raw, inspiring, and full of practical wisdom for anyone navigating divorce, rebuilding after heartbreak, or questioning what love looks like in their next chapter.
