Cumi Valdez focuses on marriage, relationships, blended families, business, careers, health, and wellness. In this first episode, we share how we were introduced to each other and the reason why we have launched this podcast. We touch on everything from our first meeting, first lunch date, and the moment we expressed our feelings to each other.

In this episode, we are joined by guest hosts, Min. Brandy Nelson & Elder Antwan Nelson to discuss the struggles and challenges we have faced in our marriages and how we overcame them. Our guests were actually responsible for introducing us and marrying us, so we are incredibly grateful to welcome them for this transparent conversation. Yes--we keep it real REAL! We explore the need for commitment and working through difficulties, even when it feels tough.
