Description

This episode is for when you’re feeling that emotional gap and you’re not sure what’s really behind it. I’ll walk you through the five biggest reasons your partner might feel distant and what to actually do about it.

Sometimes things feel… off. Like your partner’s right there, but also not. And the more you try to fix it, the worse it gets.


Here’s what you’ll learn:

- The one thing most couples don’t talk about that’s quietly creating distance

- How resentment builds from unmet needs (and how to ask the right question to shift it)

- Why emotional safety matters more than “just being honest”

- How burnout outside your relationship can bleed into your connection

- A small but powerful question that can bring you back to each other


You’ll leave this one knowing exactly where to start and how to start reconnecting, even if it’s been a while.
