đ Reflection Moment
Ask yourself these questions:
-
Have I become more of a manager than a lover in my marriage?
-
When was the last time I felt truly seen, touched, or appreciated?

Am I willing to take the first step toward reconnection?
-
What do I really want my marriage to feel like?
As Lisa reminds us, âYou have to keep a finger on the pulse of your relationship.â Awareness is the first step toward reconnection.
