Episode Details

Sometimes the real reason couples drift apart isn’t the arguments, the distance, or the lack of sex — it’s what’s happening underneath all of that. In this episode, I’m joined by licensed couples therapist and creator of The Intimacy Shift, Dr. Dan Sneider, to unpack what’s really going on when the spark fades… and how to get it back.

We talk about:

• Why “time heals all wounds” can quietly destroy a relationship
• How attachment patterns (avoidant, anxious, and more) show up in everyday conflict
• The 24-hour rule for coming back to hard conversations before resentment takes over
• Why you need scheduled time to talk about your relationship (and how to make it feel connecting, not confronting)
• How community and honest conversations can dissolve shame around infidelity, disconnection, and sex

Dr. Dan also shares how his 12-week Intimacy Shift program helps couples move from feeling like roommates to rebuilding trust, emotional safety, and genuine intimacy — even after big ruptures.

If you’re in that season of “we’re fine, but not really,” this conversation will give you language, tools, and hope.
