Dre Said Thatt Podcast: Trying to Love While Carrying It All

In this special Vent with Dre segment of Dre Said That, Dre sits down with P. Luv for a real, unfiltered conversation about fatherhood, love, loss, and finding yourself when life doesn’t go how you planned. P. Luv opens up about raising his children while navigating the weight of doing it largely on his own emotionally, financially, and mentally. He speaks honestly about the impact of an absent mother, not just on him, but on his kids, and how carrying that responsibility can drain you while still pushing you to show up. He also shares his struggles with love and relationships feeling lost, doubting his worth, and questioning whether he’s capable of sustaining a healthy partnership. From once being a promising football star to watching that future fall apart due to poor decisions, P. Luv reflects on the journey with clarity and accountability no excuses, no regrets, just truth. This episode isn’t about blame. It’s about growth. It’s about owning your story, learning from it, and understanding how your healing (or lack of it) shapes the lives of your children.
