Listen "They Don’t Know: Building Real Love in a Filtered World"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, a nod to Jon B.’s classic “They Don’t Know,” we dive into what it means to build real love in a world obsessed with filters, trends, and everybody having something to say about relationships they’re not in. 🎶💬
We open up about navigating the age gap between us and the 20- and 30-somethings in our lives, kids, couples, younger family members, and even the culture as a whole. What they call “criticism,” we call love, wisdom, and lived experience. And just like Jon B. said, “They don’t know about this here.” They don’t know the battles we fought, the lessons we earned, or the commitment it takes to keep love real in every season.
We unpack:
💛 How wisdom from your 40s and 50s hits different for younger generations
🧡 Why love sometimes sounds like guidance, not judgment
🎧 How social media shapes (and sometimes warps) expectations of relationships
🔥 What it looks like to model stability, maturity, and longevity in a “do-what’s-trending” world
🌉 How to build bridges between generations without losing your voice
This episode is all about reminding listeners: real love doesn’t need validation, applause, or a filter to be powerful. And sometimes… they just don’t know, but love will teach them.
