Sex and Intimacy in Marriage, Pt I

Sex and Intimacy in Marriage, Pt I

Dr. Greg and Erin Smalley talk with the founder of Heart of Dating, Kait Tomlin, with her husband JJ about our mindsets when we're dating before marriage, versus the reality of what we each bring into our married life. They emphasize the importance of being open to changes and the significance of individual growth and self-examination to maintain a healthy marriage. Our hurts, our issues, our expectations, all of it! We'll also give you a Valentine's Day activity, and we answer a question from a wife who knows that her relationship is stuck in the reactive cycle. The conversation provides practical advice on managing relationship conflicts and stresses the value of a teachable spirit and open heart in fostering marital growth.
