You may wonder why I cover so many topics in my writing. Of course, I talk a lot about relationships with people, but I’ve also explored money, sex, and career stuff as well. Ultimately, all of these things exist outside of you. And while it can seem like your partner…

My ex-husband comes up fairly frequently in conversations between Tyler and me.
