Real Life, Real Love: Life Lessons on Joy, Pain & the Magic That Holds Us Together

Advice on how to have healthy, dynamic relationships from Raashaun (DJ Envy) and Gia Casey, revealing their secrets to navigating marriage, family, and faithGia and Raashaun Casey met when they were two teenagers attending the same high school in Queens. They have been together for an astounding 27 years and married for 20. They have remained together through Raashaun's growing celebrity, a devastating (and very public) cheating scandal, and the births of six children. Now, more than a quarter of a century into their relationship, they are stronger and more committed to each other than they've ever been, and their fans are clamoring to know how they did it.

In Real Life, Real Love, Gia and Raashaun explore the entire chronology of their love story with remarkable vulnerability, searing honesty, and a lot of humor. It's a riveting narrative about how to grow together, an aspirational guidebook for people who seek the same unconditional love in their relationships, and an in-depth look at how to remain equals after being thrust into the public eye.

I Love this book so far, I've always loved the way DJ Envy spoke of his wife & kids, family is priceless !!!

If you’re a fan of the podcast you’ll enjoy this! My only issue was I feel like so much was dedicated to the cheating part. I would have liked to hear more about parenthood and how they manage having so many kids. Also there was a lot of filler from random people writing about how great the Casey’s are. Beautiful words but it took up space that could have been for other things or more specifics in the later chapters.

I read this book in nearly one sitting! I loved hearing Gia & Envy’s real, honest story. I especially loved the exercises you can do alone or with a partner. So many incredible wisdoms from a couple who has truly lived life.

This book is so well written!! I also purchased the Audible version and Gia's dedication to her mother was breath taking!! I love their account of their entire life and I've already found so many gems within this book!! Gia definitely needs to be a couples counselor, for newlyweds!! Her reasoning and logic is so on point, it's truly remarkable!! LOVE THIS BOOK!!!

I love that all you’ve been through made you both stronger. Thanks you both for pouring your heart, love, ups and downs, examples of the good and bad into this book. It’s ok to know it’s ok that things aren’t perfect. It perfect ok to fight for what and who you love. I’ve definitely learned a lot of you guys over the years. A lot I knew and a lot I kinda knew but you guys helped clear up some thoughts I had, when I needed clarity . Thank you! Congratulations. Sidebar: Congrats on baby Peyton!
