We're bringing this one back because it's one of the most asked-about topics from men inside The Powerful Man. How do you rebuild connection with your wife when things feel flat, distant, or disconnected? Doug is joined again by his wife, Erin Holt, for a candid conversation on what actually works when it comes to rebuilding intimacy in a long-term relationship.

They unpack how most men miss the early signs of disconnection, how emotional safety gets slowly eroded, and why small, ignored moments matter more than you think. Erin shares the perspective from the other side, what women really want, what they wish their husbands would notice, and how masculine leadership plays a key role in getting the relationship back on track.

This episode also breaks down simple, real-world actions you can take to rebuild trust, spark attraction again, and create the kind of relationship that doesn't just survive but actually feels good to be in. If you've been feeling like roommates, if the spark is gone, or if your wife has started pulling away, start here.

If you're ready to get clear on how things got off track and want a step-by-step plan to fix it, watch the free training at fixmarriage.thepowerfulman.com/scales. It's a straightforward look at how to rebuild connection without begging, chasing, or forcing hard conversations.
