About this episode
This episode discusses the concept of date night, its effectiveness in reconnecting couples, and shares insights from a recent Instagram poll.
In this week’s Real Talk episode we’re chatting all things date night. Is it a thing, does it help reconnect you and what are you all saying about date night; based on a recent poll we released on Instagram. We’re talking, date night pressure, martini anxiety, home made pizza nights and is date night really all about the white table cloth. If you’re keen to hear all about how others are date night-ing, this one is for you. A big thank you to our episode sponsors Lacevo and Baby Sensory and Toddler Sense.
