Episode Notes
Themes: self-development, personal change, relationship issues, separation

Some couples experience a very drastic change in the course of their relationship. One partner starts to shift in a way that is...different (or unrecognizable)... from who they were before. This puts a tremendous strain on the relationship and the couple's sense of connectedness and togetherness. They may even wonder... "how do we even continue in this together?"

If you can relate, this episode will unpack a crucial conversation that can help you navigate the significant changes happening between you and your significant other.

Episode Notes
Themes: date night, relationship issues, long-term relationship

The typical advice for a dying relationship tends to be, "go on more dates." Which is true - partially. One-on-one time is integral to nurturing your relationship, but if you are deeply disconnected from each other, dinner and a movie won't do it. Going through the motions of a date night isn't quite hitting the mark.

Let's talk about how to think of "date night" a bit differently.
