EP 364: He Said with Tyler — Part 1 of a 3-part Couples Coaching Series

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This episode is a couple’s coaching session with the male partner in the relationship. Today’s caller, Tyler, is in a relationship with an amazing woman. He says they are at a crossroads and would like guidance on whether or not to make her his life partner or if they are better served to let each other go. Christine uncovers a childhood wound that may be keeping him from experiencing true intimacy with his partner.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[For show notes, go here:</span> <a href="http://christinehassler.com/episode364"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Christinehassler.com/episode364</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">]</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a relationship, over time the attraction changes. It becomes more about intimacy and about exploring sexuality together. The initial infatuation attraction is easy. That is the low-hanging fruit attraction. Next-level relationships take intimacy, sexuality, and affection to another level. In a relationship, it is about exploring and going deeper with each other and not relying on the quick high.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The beginning of a relationship is almost always the easiest. We have hormones attracting us to each other and things are new and shiny. It is when we go deeper that intimacy blocks reveal themselves.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember, more often than not, things that come up in our relationships stem from things that we did not get in our childhood.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m happy to announce that my next Women’s Retreat will be held in Austin from October 7‒9, 2022.
