Summary
Getting married and starting a new life together can be brutal for anyone. Navigating how to surrender your life to a partnership of give and take is difficult as it is. But, for an ever growing select few that choose to get married very young, the hurdles could be insurmountable.
In this episode Pietze, Abi's best friend, and her husband Jonny join the podcast for this five part series. They shine a spotlight on their teenage romance and the survival tools they used to get through their formative years. Together they touch on Jonny's lifestyle of dissociation and set the stage to understand the long term problems for being ill prepared for married life.
This series will make you laugh, cry, and reflect like never before. You don't want to miss out!
