A simple compliment that changes everything

Hey!

This week, we’re slowing down to appreciate the little things—the glances, the laughs, the quiet teamwork that make your relationship feel safe and steady. Here's your weekly Together Times to help you lean into love.

Something to Share with a Loved One

A “You Handled That So Well” Compliment — This week, point out a recent moment your partner handled something well (even a small win). Celebrate their calm, creativity, or kindness out loud.

Something to Ask a Loved One

"What’s something you wish we did more often together?"

Fun Weekly Relationship Activity

Choreograph a 30-Second Routine - Pick a fun song and come up with a silly or sweet 30-second dance together. It doesn’t have to be TikTok-worthy—just something you can laugh about, repeat on random days, or keep as your private go-to dance.

Relationship Quick Tip

When your partner is speaking, respond with a short summary before giving your thoughts. This simple habit—called mirroring—shows you’re truly listening and helps them feel understood.

Expert Insight Spotlight

Esther Perel says, "The quality of your relationships determines the quality of your life." This week, invest in one tiny moment of presence: a pause, a hand squeeze, or a heartfelt "How was your day, really?"

Q&A Section

"We both have busy schedules. How do we stay connected?"

Try the "2-Minute Morning Ritual." Each morning, take two minutes (literally!) to check in with a hug, a quick intention for the day, or a compliment. It's short, but it builds consistency and connection.

Next Week Sneak Peek

Get ready for a cozy, screen-free date idea that brings back real face time (the kind with smiles, not notifications). 💛
