How do you actually deepen your relationship? Jayson and Ellen unpack the advice men and women often give each other for creating more connection and where those approaches miss the mark. They explore why techniques only get you so far, what it means to be fully present with your partner, and why talking about your inner life creates deeper intimacy. They also discuss the anxiety that comes with opening up in a high stakes relationship. If you want more closeness without relying on tricks or scripts, this episode is for you.
