That's not connected.
That's not quality time.
So I got the idea of what if we playfully make ourselves earn our screen time?
So I said, why don't we do, make a little rule for ourselves, we'll experiment with, that we can't use screens until we've had sex.
So we have our workday, we set a specific time, okay, 5 p.m., that's when the workday ends.
We're entrepreneurs like you, so we know it doesn't actually end at 5 p.m., but we just kind of set that arbitrarily, and we said past 5 p.m., if it's not related to work,
We're not allowed to get our screens until we've been intimate with each other.
And that has been super fun for us to play around with.
It just makes sure that we're prioritizing each other and make sure it's at a time when we have the energy, the excitement to be with each other.
It's just been really, really fun.
So again, that's not going to work for every couple's schedule.
You know, if you've got kids around, of course, like it's not going to be doable, but you could adjust that.
to kids go to bed and then that's the first thing that we do.
We don't go to watch Netflix.
We don't get our phone and scroll on Instagram.
We're prioritizing each other.
This is such a fascinating question that most of us have never taken the time to think about.
And I'm actually, I'm going to put you on the spot if you don't mind.
And I'm going to ask you to come up with your definition.
Because this is an exercise that I recommend to all couples.
