They Still Argue After 26 Years—So Why Does Their Marriage Work? EP 116

They Still Argue After 26 Years—So Why Does Their Marriage Work? EP 11623 sep1 u 25 min

What does a healthy marriage actually look like after 26 years?

Spoiler: apparently, you can STILL argue about lateness. 😂

Sharonda and Dwight Wear have been married for 26 years. They met at the University of Virginia, raised three children, built a life together, became empty nesters—and now they even run a business and podcast together.

But when Sharonda told me before our conversation:

“I don't know why we work.”

I knew this wasn't going to be another polished conversation about the “secrets” to a successful marriage.

So I decided to investigate. 👀

In this episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, I sit down with the founders of Chocolate Rocket City for a funny, candid and surprisingly revealing look at what long-term healthy love can actually look like.

We start with my version of the Newlywed Game—except after 26 years of marriage—and their answers tell us A LOT.

Who apologizes first?

Who worries more?

Who initiates the difficult conversations?
