This episode isn’t really about kissing—it’s about the small, repeated moments of connection that create the culture of a marriage.
Small moments of connection can have a surprisingly powerful impact on the quality of a marriage. In this episode of The Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD explores the research behind kissing your spouse before leaving for work and reveals why she believes the kiss itself isn’t actually what makes the difference. Instead, it’s the culture of connection, attention, and affection that makes these small rituals so meaningful. Alexandra shares simple ways to build more moments of intimacy into everyday life, from saying good morning and greeting your spouse when you come home to making time for connection before bed. Because over time, these seemingly small moments become the nourishment that keeps emotional connection, intimacy, and passion alive.
