123. How to Connect More and Rekindle Romance in Your Relationship — Even if You’re Super Busy
More ways to listen:
We could all use a little more connection and romance in our relationship, right?
But for many of us, it's the little things hiding in plain sight that tend to rob us of the intimacy we really want.
It can feel like a lack of time or the annoying traits of our partner get in the way of connecting. And while there might be some level of truth to those kinds of things, sometimes it's simply our own mindset that creates the roadblocks holding us back.
We've had to overcome our own misguided mindsets and intentionally strengthen specific areas of our marriage in order to move past those same roadblocks that you might be facing.
In this episode, we'll help you uncover what can seem to be hidden obstacles and challenge you to take action. You can overcome those obstacles just like we did and discover the connection and romance you're looking for!
