Have you ever done the right thing—and paid for it socially?

In this episode of Behind The Blonde, I share a moment from high school that shaped the way I move through the world: standing up for someone who couldn’t stand up for themselves, and losing an entire friend group because of it.

Back then, I carried fear and insecurity.
Now, I carry conviction.

This episode is about the power of choosing love, the freedom that comes with age, and understanding that every choice has consequences—but we get to decide which ones we’re willing to live with.

If you’ve ever felt isolated for doing what you knew was right, this one’s for you.

The world feels heavy right now — and many of us are carrying that weight quietly while still showing up for our lives, our relationships, and the people who depend on us.

In this episode of Behind The Blonde, I speak honestly about what it means to stay human in overwhelming times. About empathy, moral responsibility, emotional weight, and the quiet ways we try to move through the day when everything feels like too much.

This conversation isn’t about having answers. It’s about choosing how we show up. About honoring our capacity. About kindness, compassion, and the unseen work happening behind the scenes — in our homes, our relationships, and within ourselves.

I share personal reflections on motherhood, partnership, emotional overwhelm, and the importance of raising and modeling humanity without losing ourselves to fear, anger, or numbness.

Some of the most meaningful work doesn’t happen loudly.
It happens in small choices, quiet moments, and the way we treat others — even when it’s hard.

In this episode of Behind the Blonde, Kirby is joined once again by her husband, Britt, for a raw, honest, and deeply intimate conversation about sex, connection, and what it really takes to sustain desire in a long-term relationship.

Following last week’s theme of intention and information, this episode goes between the sheets — unpacking why friendship may be the foundation of a relationship, but intimacy is the baseline. Together, Kirby and Britt explore how emotional connection impacts physical intimacy, why sex becomes a barometer for relational health, and how communication (both in and out of the bedroom) is essential for growth rather than regression.

From navigating insecurity, body image, and ego, to dismantling shame around sex, porn, and performance, this conversation offers both the female and male perspective on why intimacy is far more mental, emotional, and vulnerable than we’re often taught. They talk openly about frequency, spontaneity vs. scheduling, the role of sobriety, eye contact, foreplay, reassurance, and the power of simply feeling seen and desired by your partner.

This episode isn’t about doing it “right.”
It’s about doing it intentionally — with curiosity, honesty, and compassion.

If this conversation made you feel seen, challenged, or slightly uncomfortable… good. That’s intimacy.
