In our modern culture we get all sorts of direct and indirect pressure to avoid introspection and digging into our histories. Gender norms teach men to avoid talking about their feelings, and sexy on-screen couples rarely have conversations about each other’s childhood suffering. But, according to Dr. Alexandra Solomon, engaging your partner in conversation about their past experiences is one of the best things you can do to keep your relationship sexy and exciting!

Dr. Solomon is a psychologist at The Family Institute and clinical assistant professor in the Department of Psychology at Northwestern University. As a Relationship School® ambassador, she’s part of the movement fostering empathy through relationship for a better world.

In this episode (and in episode 136), Dr. Solomon educates us about “relational self-awareness” and how that pivotal skill makes strong relationships of all sorts possible.
According to professor and therapist Dr. Alexandra Solomon, engaging your partner in conversation about their past experiences is one of the best things you can do to keep your relationship sexy and exciting. Listen in to find out why!
