Is the secret to a happy marriage… living in separate houses?

This week on Raised by Her, we unpack the “Living Apart Together” (LAT) relationship trend and debate whether space can actually strengthen commitment—or just delay the hard conversations. We also dig into the viral controversy surrounding Michelle Obama’s Becoming on Netflix and the unsettling online attacks on the former First Lady during Black History Month.

Along the way, we share personal stories about navigating racism—from 1950s Alabama to the middle-school basketball court—and why character is still the sharpest form of resistance. Plus: a quick Grammys recap (Bad Bunny, Kendrick Lamar, and more), the “Keke Palmer rule” hot-take dating debate, a peek inside Kamala HQ and Gen Z organizing, and the viral Winter Olympic fashion moment everyone’s talking about.

If you’re into relationships, culture, politics, and real talk—this one’s for you.
