Team Us! How To Handle the Identity Changes of Marriage
Description
True or false? Marriage means more than just changing a last name - it means changing EVERYTHING.
Whether it's the bride and groom moving out for the first time, or the parents and siblings letting go of the past - everyone has to readjust to a new reality.
In this special conversation, Mary Alessi is joined by her youngest daughter, Gaby, for an honest and emotional discussion about one of life’s biggest transitions—getting married and leaving the nest. As Gaby prepares to walk down the aisle in just a few months, Mary and Gaby reflect on the bittersweet realities of changing your last name, building a new life with a spouse, and navigating the complex feelings that come with “leaving and cleaving.”
Together, they share candid stories about wedding planning, buying a first home, and the delicate dance of blending two family cultures—all while holding onto the core values that shaped them. With plenty of laughs, a few tears, and wisdom for both parents and daughters, this episode is a must-listen for anyone experiencing or anticipating big shifts in the family dynamic.
