Summary
Today, Dear Tisia welcomes its first-ever guest — Demetri Wiley, Chicago native, musician, and host of The Lost Loverboy Podcast. Known for his emotional honesty and poetic perspective on love, heartbreak, and healing, Demetri opens up about his journey as a man learning to love deeply and intentionally.
💬 From his parents’ influence and personal heartbreaks to his views on dating, marriage, and modern masculinity — this is one of the most honest conversations we’ve had yet.
💌 Then, we dive into two powerful Dear Tisia voicemails:• A woman ghosted after finally letting her guard down.• Another left alone in the hospital by the man she loved.
✨ In Btch You Smell Good*, we spotlight Kirke by Tiziana Terenzi — a luscious, warm blend of passionfruit, vanilla, and sandalwood that’s as magnetic as it is mysterious.
👇 Join the conversation in the comments — which part of this episode hit you the hardest?
