It Starts With Attraction: Episode 103 – Have Better Sex With Your Spouse

Sex is one of the ways we stay attracted to each other in a marriage. And you can have better sex with your spouse! Dr. Corey Allan found in a study that the higher your level of religious dogma, the less sexually satisfied you are because of the shame and guilt associated with it. This early discovery led him to be a voice that helps couples discuss and frame conversations around sex and marriage. He believes if you can't talk about what you want to do or about sex with the person you wish to have it with, you're not ready to have it yet. Dr. Allan joins Kimberly Beam Holmes to discuss how you can walk beside your child, helping them create their own informed decision about sex based on your family’s morality.

It Starts With Attraction: Episode 98 – The Keys To Better Communication In Your Marriage

This week I chatted with Laura Heck from Marriage Therapy Radio. Laura is a Gottman Certified therapist in Washington State. Of course, we talked about communication but also self-care, the top issues Laura sees as a marriage and family therapist, how to work on yourself, conflict...all the things! Laura sees a lot of couples living as "roommates" and having a lack of communication, intimacy, and how to add more to their marriage. Intimacy fades with time because it's the assumption that you know your spouse already and the communication has broken down. We also talk about the Gottman 5-1 ratio. For every 1 negative thing, there should be 5 positive things to counteract them. Having emotional intelligence and understanding when your spouse took what you may have said or done negatively, and correcting it, is vital to a healthy marriage.

It Starts With Attraction: Episode 97 – Discussing Spiritual Attraction With My Husband Rob Holmes

This week I sat down with my husband Rob to talk about spiritual attraction. We get into how we met, what attracted us to each other, and how to have discourse with friends and family that may not agree with you 100%. We believe people who model what they say and it's up to us to make sure that we're living in line with our beliefs and values. The way our spiritual attraction forms is based on the beliefs and values that we hold. Now, these beliefs and values can come from things we're passionate about, things we're passionate against, or the experience and or the experiences that we have had so far in life that have formed us. Throughout this episode, we talk about ways we can engage the people in our circles without judgment and with empathy. We all want to know others and be known and most of the time that means being willing to be held accountable by those closest to you. None of this is easy but relationships never are.

It Starts With Attraction: Episode 96 – How Becoming Spiritually Attractive Can Change Your Heart

In today's episode of It Starts With Attraction, I'm just going to share some things from my life with you. What spiritual attraction means to me, how it has helped me, and continues to shape me into the person I'm becoming. Spiritual attraction, at its core, is all about living in line with the beliefs and value system that you have. We find it attractive when there are people who have strong beliefs and values and stand up for them. Spiritual attraction is important. I would say it's more important than physical attraction for a long-term relationship. And it's right up there with emotional attraction because it is the core of who we are — our spiritual attraction, beliefs, and values form our character, integrity, and purpose.
