I know in the dating world and when we’re educating college students and teens about those sort of like early foundational skills, respect is incredibly foundational. So how does curiosity play a role when it comes to respect and relationships and sexual intimacy?Īlexandra: I love this idea of talking about the role of respect in a longterm relationship as relevant. Mike Domitrz: When we were talking in advance, I was saying, “Hey, what would you like to talk about this time” because we have talked before, and you brought up curiosity. We work in very much the same mission and message of healthy, respectful relationships, and specifically today we’re going to talk about that in those longterm relationships, like marriage, as a therapist … And you’re able to work with couples and you teach college students about those relationships so they can be healthier when they get into those longterm relationships. Thank you Alexandra so much for joining us.Īlexandra: Thanks for having me on again. She’s a highly sought after teacher and speaker who advocates tirelessly for the transformative power of love.
