62. Valentine Bonus: Navigating Post-Valentine’s Fallout

The Intimate Marriage Podcast, with Intimacy Coach Alexandra Stockwell, MD - A podcast by Alexandra Stockwell, MD - Wednesdays

I hope you had a really wonderful Valentine’s Day that was special, delicious, and sensual. I hope you were able to use what you learned in Episode 61 to connect with your partner. If it did not go as planned, this episode is for you! A client of mine has a wonderful relationship most of the time, but in February they fight and get on each other’s nerves a lot. They’ve come to dread February because of the pressure to have a “perfect” Valentine’s Day to match their wonderful marriage. If you’re feeling resentment or disappointment towards your partner, there are a few steps you can take in order to reconnect. Journal, exercise, meditate, find a way to clear the resentment so you can show up neutral and present Focus on what did go well Have a calm, respectful conversation with your partner about what happened Ask what your partner needs for this to be enjoyable, then share yours If you’d like, schedule a Valentine’s Day redo using what you’ve learned Email me at [email protected] and let me know if this resonates for you!
