Episode Description from the Publisher

Sometimes the biggest shift in a relationship has nothing to do with changing your partner. It starts with looking at yourself, how you communicate, what you need, and whether you’re actually letting yourself receive support. In this episode, I’m joined by sex and relationship coach, Cailee Rae, for a really honest conversation about intimacy, hyper-independence, personal growth, and what happens when two people in a relationship aren’t growing at the same pace.   In this episode, we talk about: Why emotional intimacy is the foundation for physical intimacy What intimacy with yourself can actually look like How hyper-independence can make asking for and receiving support feel uncomfortable What happens when one partner starts doing the inner work before the other One of my biggest takeaways from this conversation is that we don’t have to wait until something is broken to give it our attention. Our relationships, with our partners and with ourselves, deserve care before we hit the crisis point. And sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is stop trying to control someone else’s growth and start becoming the version of ourselves we actually want to be.   Connect with Cailee: Instagram: @deepwithcaileerae Check out her Website Resources: Connect on Instagram – @cat.roten Prefer Video?- Checkout our Youtube channel Download the Event Integration Kit
