Devora Krasnianski speaks with Gila Levitt, a marriage and intimacy coach about the dynamics and challenges that arise within marriages during the midlife years. Everyone’s marriage is different. Some people are really enjoying their marriage at this point in their lives. Some are not – but they could be. And if you are in that place of thinking that I want to make this marriage even better for both of us, then this episode is for you.
Gila shared mindsets and tips for deeper connection, or reconnection. She also spoke about how to make the most intimate parts of our marriage more exciting and more connecting.
