Ep #96: The Inner-workings of Intimacy: Megan B Bartley, MAMFT, LMFT

As promised, we have brought Megan back for a deeper dive into marriage/partnerships by looking at the power of intimacy.  Intimacy doesn't have to mean just sex.  It can be about body language, the words we use, or even facial expressions.  A large part of letting our guard down when it comes to intimacy is learning more about ourselves first.  We brought Megan back to help explain this very layered topic and to hopefully assist us in understanding the dynamics of this fickle topic. She tackles things like identifying the roles of a partnership, why it's healthy to learn what serves YOU first then your partner, and how we can reverse these behaviors that may be hindering our closest relationships.  There are tons of ways to hear more from Megan, check out the links below.  Also, the literature mentioned in this podcast is also listed below.  Happy listening, zen friends!!
