Our goal at What the Gap has been the same from the beginning. We've hoped to share raw, honest insight into the journey of two very different individuals, a modern-day couple; more or less, a couple of humans just trying to fill the gaps.This season has been no different. We've shared our relationship ups and downs, the lessons we've learned about ourselves and about each other. We've confessed to personality downfalls, to habits that are no longer serving us and even, to the hamster wheels we're trying to escape. In the FINAL SERIES of Season 3, we're taking a moment to look back on the highs and lows of the last few months: the laughs, the frustration, the TMIs, the first guest appearance and so much more. In this episode, we reflect on AJ's self love journey and a lesser spoken-about struggle: his continued battle with podcasting itself. What can we say, not every dream will first come naturally.We admit to the hardships this has created, and also, to the very real fear of being perceived in the wrong way. Ultimately, we're here to grow together, imperfections and all. This is just one step of the journey. Will you join us for the next? AJ & Kenzie xx---Can't get enough of What the Gap Podcast?For collaborations or to simply learn more about us, visit our website here.Subscribe to our mailing list for UNIQUE CONTENT (coming soon) here.Join our PRIVATE FB COMMUNITY (where the juicy convos continue) here.And as always, follow WTG conversations on Facebook & Instagram!

5 Things I Wish My Partner Knew | Boyfriend Edition

Remember those ideal morning routines we shared last week? Don't worry, neither does A.J. This week, we put them to the test to discover the REALITY of how a week in our lives actually plays out.Talking the talk is one thing, but walking the walk? Now that's another entirely. In today's episode, we share the truth about 5am (or 6am, or 7am) wake-ups; how often we actually adhere to an ideal morning and how this affects the rest of our day, our mood & our mindset. We reveal what matters most about creating the ideal morning routine, and ironically enough, it has nothing to do with how you actually spend it. It's about how often you commit to lifting your ass out of bed to try.In other news, A.J. is put under spotlight for several questionable incidents: the increasingly vocal nature of his internal indiscretions, and the return of old drinking habits. Meanwhile, Kenzie continues to pursue a much-needed break, admitting ever so slowly that there's a time and place for her ‘NO-BULLSHIT’ attitude to work.We are far from perfect, and this humbling exercise makes that very clear. We hope it's the inspiration you need to re-write a realistic routine for you, or at the very least, to be a little less harsh on yourself next time you watch your favourite Youtuber rise with the sun and a glass of lemon water. ---In this week's episode, Kenzie recommended health, lifestyle & foodie blogger, Ruby Alexander.
