Restore Intimacy & Create Deeper Connections in Your Relationship with Daniela Stevens

It can be an overwhelming feeling when a relationship has lost intimacy.  It can be even harder to figure out how to get it back. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not as simple as having a weekly date night or scheduled sex on the calendar.  We need to understand the type of intimacy we’re seeking (yes, there are different kinds of intimacy, not just sex) and be vulnerable to communicate those needs.  But why does that sound so daunting?

In this episode my guest Daniela Stevens shares her insights on this vulnerable topic by helping us understand:

• What intimacy means and the different kinds of intimacy in relationships

• The impact of busy, fast-paced lives on intimacy in relationships

• How conditioning and society has shaped our view of what intimacy is “supposed” to look like

• What a sex practice is and why it might be right for your relationship

About

Welcome to the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins (that’s me!). My goal in this podcast is to share valuable and actionable tips on what I call the “Core Four” - mindfulness, movement, habits, and growth - so you can build a life that feels true to you. I will be interviewing people who have had a “wake up call” - their good on the outside life wasn’t working anymore, and what they did to change that.
