Most couples don’t fall apart overnight.

They drift apart slowly—through busy schedules, unspoken patterns, and lack of intentional connection.

In this episode of Relationship Renovation, licensed therapists EJ and Tarah Kerwin explain why couples drift apart and share a simple, practical framework that helps couples stay emotionally connected over time.

Instead of focusing on fixing problems, this episode shows couples how to prevent disconnection by setting shared intentions, identifying repeating relationship patterns, and using daily, weekly, and monthly check-ins to stay aligned.

This episode is especially helpful if you:

  • Feel emotionally disconnected from your partner
  • Keep repeating the same relationship patterns
  • Want better communication but don’t know where to start
  • Start strong and lose momentum over time


In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • Why emotional disconnection happens gradually in long-term relationships
  • How couples unintentionally drift apart—even when love is present
  • A step-by-step framework to stay connected year-round
  • How to set shared relationship intentions that actually stick
  • Why daily, weekly, and monthly check-ins prevent emotional distance
  • How resets build trust and emotional safety over time
