Have you ever felt like your spouse was a shell of a person and you couldn't emotionally connect to him/her? I'm addressing a pressing concern shared by a listener and many couples - the struggle of feeling emotionally disconnected in their marriage or relationship. Many in similar situations will resonate deeply with this discussion.

Episode Highlights:

    • Create a Safe Environment:

      I address the importance of creating a space where couples feel safe to share their emotions. Understanding a partner’s background and upbringing can offer insight into their emotional responses.

    • Meet Him Where He Is:

      Engaging in activities your spouse or partner enjoys can naturally open the door to deeper conversations and connection.

    • Lead with Vulnerability:

      By sharing your own struggles and vulnerabilities, you can encourage your spouse to do the same.

    • Affirm Small Steps:

      Acknowledging and affirming small instances of vulnerability can help build trust.
