    GREEN FLAGS: 10 Signs You’re With the Right Person | Season 02 Episode 12 | Vlad & Angie
    Aug 14 2026
    Share your thoughts with us!We spend a LOT of time talking about relationship red flags—but what about the signs that tell you you’ve actually found something healthy?In this episode of Roots & Rhythm Podcast, Vlad and Angie flip the conversation from 🚩 to 💚 and break down 10 green flags that can help identify a partner who may actually be built to go the distance with you.Because choosing a life partner isn’t just about chemistry, attraction, or whether somebody checks all the boxes on your dating profile. This is potentially the person you’ll raise children with, navigate financial stress with, experience loss with, bury loved ones with, build dreams with—and grow old with.So what should you actually be looking for?From accountability and emotional availability to boundaries, consistency, healthy friendships, stress management, and peace, Vlad and Angie get candid about what healthy love looks like in real life—and what they’ve learned from their own marriages.They also get into why shows like Pop the Balloon can encourage people to focus on superficial dealbreakers while completely overlooking the qualities that actually sustain a relationship.And of course... somehow the conversation finds its way to Caribbean families, laundry, breastfeeding, peeing on toothbrushes, and plenty of other Roots & Rhythm detours. 😂The biggest question isn’t only whether your partner has these green flags.Are YOU a green flag for the person you love?Drop a comment and tell us: What is one green flag you see in your partner—and what is one green flag you want to become?💚 THE 10 GREEN FLAGSThey Take AccountabilityThey Can Disagree in a Healthy WayThey Are Kind—Not Just NiceThey Support Your GrowthThey Are Emotionally AvailableTheir Actions Match Their WordsThey Respect BoundariesThey Manage Stress in Healthy WaysThey Have Healthy Relationships Outside of YouYour Peace Increases When They’re Around⏱️ EPISODE MARKERS00:00 — Welcome to Roots & Rhythm01:49 — Today We’re Talking GREEN FLAGS04:43 — Is Pop the Balloon Making Dating Too Superficial?06:56 — 💚 #1: Accountability08:25 — 💚 #2: Healthy Disagreement13:47 — 💚 #3: Kindness vs. Niceness18:29 — 💚 #4: They Support Your Growth22:34 — 💚 #5: Emotional Availability26:40 — 💚 #6: Their Actions Match Their Words29:17 — 💚 #7: They Respect Boundaries35:45 — 💚 #8: How They Handle Stress38:53 — 💚 #9: Healthy Relationships Outside of You50:17 — 💚 #10: Your Peace Increases When They’re Around56:24 — What Green Flags Are YOU Bringing to the Relationship?1:02:07 — The 10 Green Flags Recap & Final Challenge🔗 LISTEN & CONNECT🌐 Website: https://www.rootsandrhythmpodcast.com🎙 Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@rootsandrhythmpodcast📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rootsandrhythmpod📘 RESOURCES & SUPPORT📖 The Embrace Method by Vladimir Louissaint👉 https://www.amazon.com/Embrace-Method-leverage-trauma-dreams/dp/B0CM3V2K5X👟 Stand+ Shoes👉 https://standshoes.com/?ref=vladlouissaint🌿 Natural E-Man Supplements👉 https://naturaleman.com/?ref=vladlouissaint💧 Gallon GearGet 20% OFF with code STAYROOTED at checkout.👉 https://gallongear.com/?ref=vladlouissaint🎤 WANT TO BE A GUEST?We’re inviting listeners to be guests on the podcast and receive live coaching on air.📩 Email us: rootsandrhythmpodcast@gmail.comStay Rooted. 🌱📖 About The Embrace Method Are you ready to embrace your best life?

  • Fatherhood, Forgiveness & the Fathers Who Shaped Us | Season 02 Episode 09 | Vlad & Angie

    Fatherhood, Forgiveness & the Fathers Who Shaped Us | Season 02 Episode 09 | Vlad & Angie
    Jun 26 2026

    Share your thoughts with us!

    Father's Day may have passed, but the conversations it sparked are just getting started.

    In this deeply personal episode of Roots & Rhythm, Vlad and Angie reflect on what it means to be fathered, what it means to become a parent, and how those experiences shape the adults we become. Together, they explore the complicated relationships many of us have with our fathers—celebrating the lessons that stayed with us while confronting the wounds that still need healing.

    Vlad shares powerful reflections on rebuilding his relationship with his father, forgiveness, and how becoming a father himself transformed the way he understands generational trauma. Angie opens up about growing up in a large Cuban family, navigating her father's dementia, and finding peace without the closure she once hoped for.

    Whether your relationship with your father is thriving, strained, complicated, or absent altogether, this conversation is an invitation to reflect, heal, and move forward.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • Why Father's Day often feels different than Mother's Day
    • The changing role of fathers across generations
    • Growing up with emotionally unavailable parents
    • Becoming the parent you wish you had
    • Forgiveness without forgetting
    • Breaking generational cycles
    • What fatherhood teaches us about ourselves


    This is one of our most honest conversations yet—and we hope it reminds you that healing often begins by understanding the people who came before us.
