2025 was not an easy year. It challenged us emotionally, mentally, and relationally in ways we didn’t anticipate. In this episode, we sit down and honestly reflect on what the year demanded of us, what we had to release, and how those endings shaped who we are now.This is not a highlight reel. This is a real conversation about growth, loss, clarity, and evolution inside a marriage. We talk about the moments that forced reflection, the patterns that became impossible to ignore, and the lessons that only show up when life gets uncomfortable.If 2025 stretched you, tested you, or made you question things you thought were settled, this conversation is for you. Sometimes growth does not look like winning. Sometimes it looks like letting go and choosing to move forward anyway.Join us as we look back honestly and talk about what had to end so something stronger could begin.What did 2025 reveal to you?*********Welcome to Legacy Journeys — Where Love, Life, and Laughter After 40 Take Center StageWe’re Liv and Mello, a real couple navigating the joys and challenges of love, marriage, and personal growth in midlife.

R.I.P. Andrea Olivia Mincey | Legacy Journeys Podcast – Liv & MelloThis week on the Legacy Journeys Podcast, Liv and Mello take you inside the whirlwind of the past two weeks—a mix of grief, family drama, and rebirth. After back-to-back funerals for two of Mello’s uncles in Atlanta, the couple opens up about what it means to laugh through grief, navigate family dysfunction, and find healing in the middle of chaos.Funerals bring out a lot of emotions, and we talk about how moments of sadness often collide with humor when families come together. It’s proof that even in the middle of funerals and grief, there can still be joy and laughter.But the heart of this episode centers around Liv. For years she’s been open about feeling like the family punching bag in the Mincey household. After enduring years of toxic family dynamics, she finally decided it was time to step away. Cutting ties with family isn’t easy, especially when it’s the family you grew up with—but sometimes it’s the only path to peace.Liv shares what it’s been like to move through isolation and find her voice apart from the toxic relatives who kept her small. She explains how leaving behind the name Andrea Olivia Mincey has become more than just a decision—it’s a rebirth. By embracing her married name, Andrea Olivia Lewis, she’s claimed her identity, her freedom, and her healing. It’s a story about rebirth after trauma and the courage to choose yourself when others won’t.We also dive into how isolation and healing can actually create space for growth, and why some people may feel guilty about cutting ties with family—but need to do it anyway. When you stop living under the weight of dysfunction and estrangement, you open the door to discovering who you really are.Of course, this isn’t just a heavy conversation. As always, Liv and Mello find the humor in the middle of the mess. This is what makes the Legacy Journeys Podcast unique: we tackle big topics like family estrangement, toxic family stories, and grief—but we do it with the kind of laughter only a married couple over 40 can bring. It’s part of what makes this show a true funny couple podcast that connects with listeners on a deeper level.So if you’ve ever:Struggled with family dysfunctionWondered what happens when you finally say goodbye to toxic relativesNeeded proof that marriage over 40 can be full of love, laughter, and real talkOr wanted to see what a true rebirth story looks like...…then this episode is for you.✨ Join the conversation in the comments: Have you ever had to leave behind toxic family relationships?
