We also dive into healthier eating habits, book talk vs. audiobook beef, family love (blood or chosen), and yes—Captain Shaunie might be learning to drive the boat. Oh, and day drinking?

Day Drinking, Tooth Fairies, and Backyard Therapy: We Back, Baby

After a much-needed summer hiatus (a.k.a. life doing the most), your favorite duo is back and outside literally. In this laugh-filled episode of Spark Up with Shaunie, we catch you up on Fourth of July chill vibes, accidental day drinking disasters (RIP to those sweet shots), and the most dramatic ride home since Uber was invented. We talk retirement from liquor (again), our first-ever fishing trip (with live Twitch proof), Sonny's pool party glow-up, and the truth behind swimsuits vs. underwear (spoiler: it's all a scam). Plus, Shaunie opens up about post-surgery milestones, going vegan, raccoon standoffs, and the joys of teaching a little one to ride a bike and lose a tooth without breaking the bank. It’s a whole lot of funny, a little bit of chaos, and a ton of heart. Stream it now and remember: Be outside, stay hydrated, protect your shoes at all costs and don’t forget to spark up.

The Journey Back to Me: Healing, Identity, and Showing Up Real

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Spark Up with Shaunie, things get raw, real, and unapologetically human. Shaunie and Dr. Wifey reunite on the mic after some sound struggles and a little life hiatus, diving headfirst into everything from tragic plane crashes to the heaviness of deportation raids, the hypocrisy of American ideals, and the emotional toll of generational cycles. Shaunie opens up about a recent family shake-up that forced her into an unexpected season of soul-searching. What started as hurt became healing, and what felt like a breakdown turned into a breakthrough. She explores identity, parenting, trauma, religion, sexuality, and the uncomfortable but liberating journey of finally asking, “Who am I really?” This episode is a love letter to the tomboys, the moms trying to hold it all together, the folks still in the closet, the kids who don’t feel heard, and anyone wrestling with self-worth and healing. It's real talk about mental health, family, rediscovery, and the beauty of small wins—like making the bed or finally sitting outside to breathe. Whether you’re searching for yourself, raising a future, or simply surviving this one's for you. Just keep going. Share it with someone who needs to hear: It’s okay. You’re not alone. And yes, it really will be okay. Hit play. Spark up. And let’s grow through it together.
