How does relationship conflict affect your children? In this episode of Infinite Intimacy, Jalissa Doughty-Moody and I explore how children can absorb the patterns they see at home—and how anxiety, withdrawal, irritability, or changes in behavior may sometimes be signs that something is going on beneath the surface.

We talk about parenting, relationship conflict, emotional regulation, generational patterns, and why healthy families aren't built around avoiding conflict. They're built through communication, repair, affection, connection, and learning how to handle difficult moments together.

We also discuss why couples don't have to wait until their relationship is in crisis to seek therapy. Whether you're struggling with communication, co-parenting, or patterns that keep repeating, getting support can help the entire family move toward healthier relationships.

Join us for an honest conversation about raising emotionally healthy children, strengthening your relationship, and creating a family environment where everyone can feel safe, connected, and understood.

I've sat with so many couples who come into therapy saying the same thing: "We keep having the same argument over and over." One partner wants to talk things through immediately, while the other needs space and pulls away. Over time, both begin to feel misunderstood, alone, and emotionally disconnected—even though they're both trying to protect the relationship.

In this episode of Infinite Intimacy, Daniel Torres and I explore one of the most common relationship patterns we see in couples therapy: the pursuer-distancer cycle. We talk about why one person feels an urgent need to resolve conflict while the other shuts down, what is happening beneath those reactions, and how this cycle quietly creates resentment and emotional distance if it goes unchecked.

I wanted this conversation to feel reassuring because this pattern doesn't mean your relationship is broken. More often than not, it means both partners are trying to feel safe, loved, and connected—but they're using different strategies that unintentionally push each other further apart.

This episode is for the partner who feels anxious when conversations are left unfinished. For the partner who becomes overwhelmed and needs space before they can talk. And for the couples who love each other deeply but are tired of repeating the same painful cycle without understanding why.

Join us for an honest conversation about communication, emotional regulation, conflict, attachment, marriage, and practical ways to reconnect when it feels like you're speaking two different languages.

I’ve seen how painful it can feel when physical intimacy starts to shift in a relationship. Sometimes one partner feels rejected, unwanted, or afraid to bring it up again. And sometimes the other partner feels tired, overwhelmed, disconnected from their body, or emotionally far away long before anything happens in the bedroom.

In this episode of Infinite Intimacy, Vanessa Sierra and I open up a conversation that so many couples experience quietly: what happens when desire changes, when closeness feels harder to access, and when stress, parenting, body image, emotional disconnection, and unspoken hurt begin to shape the way we love each other.

I wanted this conversation to feel honest and compassionate because intimacy is deeply personal. It asks us to look at more than sex. It asks us to look at how safe we feel, how seen we feel, how much we are carrying, and how willing we are to have the conversations we keep avoiding.

This episode is for the couples who still love each other, but feel distant. For the partner who misses being wanted. For the partner who needs tenderness, patience, and emotional connection before physical closeness can feel possible again.

Join us for a real conversation about desire, marriage, emotional intimacy, physical intimacy, communication, and finding your way back to each other.
