Welcome to the very first episode of the Love and Freedom podcast, hosted by me, Gabe Rivera, and my incredible wife, Wendy.

We’re excited to kick off this journey by sharing our story—20 years of marriage, filled with unconditional love, freedom, and all the lessons we’ve learned along the way. In this episode, Wendy and I take a deep dive into our relationship, exploring what it really means to love without conditions and how that love has given us the freedom to grow, both as individuals and as a couple. We’ll reflect on the early days, talk about the challenges we’ve faced, and share the wisdom we’ve gained as we prepare to renew our vows. Whether you’re newly married, have been together for years, or are just curious about the dynamics of a long-term relationship, this conversation is for you. We’re here to explore love in all its depth, and we hope our story inspires you in your own journey.
