Cultivate #4: Luke and Katelyn - Relationship Habits That Keep Us Close

You asked, we answered — and we’re baring it ALL. 💕 In this follow-up to our most downloaded episode (yep, the one where we got real about the massive struggles in our marriage), we’re sharing the relationship habits that keep us deeply connected, wildly playful, and totally irresistible to each other. 😍

Ever wonder how to keep the intimacy alive when life’s throwing stress, obligations, and screaming kids your way? We’ve got you. From the power of pooping in private (yes, seriously) to the magic of clear communication and off-loading duties to relieve stress, we’re diving into the nitty-gritty of what makes our partnership thrive.

In this episode, we talk about:

✨ Why working on YOURSELF is the ultimate relationship hack
✨ The surprising reason couples therapy didn’t work for us — and what did
✨ How humor and light-heartedness can fix almost any fight
✨ Why privacy and personal space fuel attraction (and why we are NOT roommates)
✨ The importance of setting boundaries with kids to prioritize your partnership

✨ Focusing on & looking forward to silly little games with each other
✨ Managing stress so it doesn’t kill your vibe (or your sex life)

This convo is raw, honest, and filled with both practical advice and laugh-out-loud moments. We’re not therapists — just two people committed to growing together and sharing what actually works for us. If you want more intimacy, joy, and connection in your relationship, this one’s for you. 🎧
