Why You Should Spend Time Away From Your Partner

About this episode

This episode explores the importance of spending time apart in relationships and how it can enhance attraction and individuality.

In a world that often glorifies constant closeness, this episode explores the power of space within relationships. We dive into the concept of polarity - how attraction thrives when there’s a sense of individuality and magnetism between two people. Because when you’re always merged, something can start to fade. We also touch on why space can feel especially important for avoidant partners and why many men, in particular, value freedom as a way to feel safe and open. See in you in there!
