    One Extraordinary Marriage

    Are you and your partner feeling more like roommates than soulmates? Do you struggle to balance communication, intimacy, and life’s daily demands? If so, this episode is a must-listen! This week, Rebecca welcomes Tony and Alisa DiLorenzo, bestselling authors and hosts of the top-rated One Extraordinary Marriage Show. They share their personal journey from nearly divorcing to creating a thriving marriage and introduce their powerful framework: The Six Pillars of Intimacy. Tony and Alisa have been married for 28 years, but their journey hasn’t always been smooth. Facing a breaking point, they took a radical step—committing to a 60-Day Sex Challenge. This challenge transformed their relationship and sparked a movement, leading them to write their bestselling book, The Six Pillars of Intimacy, and build a global community of couples striving for deeper connections. In this conversation, Tony and Alisa reveal how couples can strengthen all aspects of intimacy—not just in the bedroom but emotionally, physically, financially, spiritually, recreationally, and beyond. They offer practical tips, real-life stories, and actionable advice to help any couple reconnect, communicate better, and build a thriving relationship. ✨ 5 Key Takeaways 1️⃣ Marriage is more than just romance—intimacy has six pillars. Emotional, physical, financial, spiritual, recreational, and sexual intimacy all play a role in a thriving marriage. If one pillar is weak, it affects the others. 2️⃣ Small actions lead to significant results. A thriving marriage isn’t built on grand gestures—it’s the daily check-ins, small touches, and moments of connection that make the difference. Even just 15 minutes of undistracted time together can transform a relationship. 3️⃣ Communication is key—but it looks different for men and women. Women often crave deep conversations, while men may prefer action-oriented discussions. Tony and Alisa suggest “Walk & Talk” sessions where couples discuss issues side-by-side instead of face-to-face, making communication feel more natural and less confrontational. 4️⃣ Rebuilding trust takes consistency. If trust has been broken, both partners have a role in healing. The one who broke trust must show reliability over time, while the other must work toward forgiveness to move forward. 5️⃣ Prioritize your marriage—like you do everything else on your calendar. Couples often schedule work meetings, kids’ activities, and social plans but forget to schedule time for each other. Blocking out dedicated time for connection—even if it’s just for coffee or a short walk—can strengthen intimacy. 🗣 Memorable Quotes 💬 “We realized that if we didn’t prioritize our marriage, it would fall apart. The 60-Day Challenge was the start, but understanding all aspects of intimacy is what truly saved us.” – Alisa DiLorenzo 💬 “Ladies, if you initiate intimacy—even in small ways—it can be a game changer. And men, pay attention to those signals because we don’t always make it obvious!” – Tony DiLorenzo 💬 “If you’re struggling in your marriage, start small. Baby steps lead to big transformations.” – Alisa DiLorenzo 📲 How to Connect with Tony & Alisa 📍 Website: OneExtraordinaryMarriage.com 🎧 Podcast: One Extraordinary Marriage Show 📖 Book: The Six Pillars of Intimacy 📺 Instagram: @OneExtraordinaryMarriage Marriage isn’t about perfection—it’s about intentionality. Whether you’re in a tough season or want to take your relationship to the next level, Tony and Alisa provide the roadmap to deeper intimacy.

The couple also discusses the impact of media on body image and how to create a supportive environment for children to develop a positive sense of self. Key Takeaways: ➡️ Lead by Example: Children learn by watching their parents, so modeling body positivity through actions and words is crucial.    ➡️ Mindful Language Matters: Avoid using negative language about bodies, both your own and others'. Choose words that promote appreciation and gratitude.    ➡️ Media Literacy: Teach children to be critical of media portrayals of bodies and recognize that these images are often unrealistic.    ➡️ Focus on Internal Qualities: Compliment children on their character, kindness, and accomplishments rather than appearance.    ➡️Mindful Eating: Encourage a healthy relationship with food by fueling the body and avoiding restrictive diets or negative self-talk about food choices.     Quotes: Rebecca: "I can't tell my daughters to do something that I'm not doing. They're not going to own it. They're going to see right through me, and I have to do it first."     Seth: "I definitely think your self-image is improved. You definitely criticize yourself less."     Rebecca: "I think that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, and I think that there isn't one form of beauty, and I think that your beauty is so much more than what you look like."     Call to Action: Share your thoughts on body positivity in the comments below.
