About this episode

Ciji and Travis spent ten years as each other’s ride-or-die—co-chairs, creative collaborators, best friends—without realizing they were also soulmates. They met through the Urban League of Greater Atlanta as ambitious young professionals and shared countless late-night meetings, speaking gigs, and even a few dates. But it wasn’t until Ciji threw out a curveball and moved to New Orleans that their second-chance romance truly began.

In this episode of Committed, guest host Christine Pride (author of the brand-new second-chance romance All the Men I’ve Loved Again) sits down with CGCijiand Travis to unpack a love story that grew slowly, steadily, and then all at once. It’s about timing, trust, belly laughs and what happens when you finally and boldly choose each other.
