54. Everything you Want to Know to Create Deep Connection in Your Relationships with Marc Wendt

See The Upside - Overcoming Obstacles and Doing Life a Little Better Everyday

Does your relationship fulfill you on a soul level? Do you connect with your partner in a conscious, deep way? Are you unsure about how to even start that conversation?
Many relationships struggle to find deeper connection. Our busy, fast paced lives make slowing down and connecting meaningfully difficult, but the amazing news is - it IS possible - whether your relationship is new or you've been together a long time - it just takes a little courage, patience and intention.
So how do you make it happen? What's the best way to offer the invitation in a heart centered, loving way that feels authentic, safe and allows vulnerability, creating that trust and openness?
In this interview with Marc Wendt, we peel back the layers about intimacy and connection in relationships. We discuss the complexities of what most men really want and how to better understand what they're feeling. Marc shares practical ways to invite deeper discussions, how to gently nudge your partner (and yourself!) down the path to closer connection, leading to deeper intimacy. You may be surprised to realize that your partner is probably craving it just as much as you are.
Some of the areas we hit:

• How to get connected into our bodies and why this helps us tap into our emotions
• Why becoming aware of our emotions actually makes us more powerful
• How breath work brings us into self-awareness and is the beginning of creating intimacy with another person
• Where gratitude comes in and how it creates connection
• Why requests can feel like complaints
• What emotional intelligence is and how to get it
• Why tragedy is often the gateway to connecting to emotions for men
• Why it’s important to allow our partners to express themselves without having to fix it
• What is courageous curiosity and how it can really open up your relationship
• The importance of entering into creating intimacy with an open heart and assuming good
• Remembering it’s a practice - the more you do it, the more depth you get
• What are triggers and how to regulate the nervous system through breathing like navy seals do

This interview was so inspiring. It made me realize that intimacy and connection truly is a practice. It takes time, patience, willingness and openness, but it really IS possible and most of the time it's what everyone involved truly - down to their soul - is really craving. It's a delicate dance to get there, but SOOOO worth the effort and is a precious gift to share with someone you love deeply.
We all deserve beautiful, soul filling, heart centered, deep, connected, love. The pathway there begins through becoming aware of ourselves, knowing it's available, committing to it and then - here's the hardest part- actually opening up to it.
