Insights

Dave: Lack of attention leads to loss of connection. Physical, emotional, and spiritual connection all have an impact on your partner, what will you do to strengthen those areas?

Liz: The key of the “We” and having each other’s backs, we all want someone to get us and know us. You are in this together.
