What We Cover in This Episode
Before a couple can be close, they must feel safe. That sounds obvious — but safety fades slowly, and most of us do not notice until the distance feels massive.
In this episode, Jim Patrick and Summer explore the Emotional Safety domain. What it looks like when it is present. Why it disappears. And how to rebuild it through small daily choices that add up.
If trust has been bruised in your marriage, this is your starting point.
