episode 6 / HOW DO I LOVE THEE
Show Notes
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Celebrate with us as we dish about the various loving gestures our partners have shown us over the years and how they might have easily gotten missed, had our definition of “love” been too narrow.
Join us as we strive to better understand and broaden the definition of love and loving gestures in terms of the “love language” they speak, with the ultimate goal of feeling more loved and more open to your partner’s unique ways of showing love.
This episode also encourages the importance of exploring and naming your own preferred “love language,” and then sharing that with your partner to improve communication and together expand your level of intimacy.
