Ep. 57: Midlife Relationships - Intimacy or Best Friends?

Whether you're in a long relationship or a new one, there are some principles that will help us all navigate the journey of keeping our romantic relationships healthy and strong. Dr. Jackie Black joins me this week to share her expertise on midlife relationships.  Are you falling victim to "best friend syndrome" or are you still a "we" with healthy intimacy?  Let's talk about it. Dr. Jackie shares some excellent tips on what we can do to foster healthy communication in midlife relationships - like physical touch every day, surprises for each other, affirming words, and setting aside time for conversation that is intentional. Try some of these ideas and let us know what changes you see! Make sure to connect with Dr. Jackie at www.drjackieblack.com and @drjackieblack on Instagram.
