Today’s act of kindness is sharing one intention.
Name one simple way you want to show up as a partner in the new year — not a resolution to perfect, just an intention to return to.

Intentions help love stay steady, even when life gets busy.

How to Intentionally Build Intimacy Together

In this clip, E.J. uses spiritual intimacy as an example of how couples can get aligned on the exact ways they want to cultivate connection in their relationship. Rather than assuming you are on the same page, he talks about the importance of clearly defining what spiritual intimacy looks like for both partners.

This conversation becomes a larger framework for any area of intimacy. Couples can choose one aspect of their connection, name what they want together, and then create a simple, consistent plan to nurture it over time.

When intimacy is intentional rather than assumed, it becomes something couples build together instead of hoping it will happen on its own.

What area of intimacy would you and your partner want to define and grow together?

Day 11 of 12 Days of Christmas — Partner Love Edition 😍🎄

Why New Experiences Bring Couples Closer

In this clip, Tarah talks about how couples who intentionally create new experiences together often report more satisfying intimate relationships. When partners step out of routine and share something novel, it sparks curiosity, engagement, and a sense of aliveness between them.

She explains that these moments activate dopamine, which plays a key role in bonding. Over time, those shared experiences help deepen intimacy and strengthen the emotional connection that supports closeness in every area of the relationship.

Connection grows when couples keep discovering life together, not just managing it side by side.

What is one new experience you and your partner could try together this month?

Today’s act of kindness is a big, specific thank you.

Repair Can Happen Faster Than You Think

In this clip, Tarah shares a real moment from her own relationship. She talks about a morning when she was stressed, had slept poorly, and snapped at E.J.

Instead of letting the moment spiral, she noticed that she was outside her window of tolerance. She stepped away, took a deep breath, and re centered herself. From that grounded place, she was able to come back and repair the interaction quickly.

This is what emotional awareness looks like in real life. It is not about never snapping or getting it right every time. It is about recognizing when you are activated, taking responsibility for your state, and returning with intention and care.

What helps you recognize when you need to pause and reset before re engaging with your partner?

Day 5 of 12 Days of Christmas — Partner Love Edition 💛

Today’s act of kindness is asking your partner:
