Show notes

Prior to the pandemic, we were facing an intimacy recession. Coronavirus has accelerated this shift even further, with lockdowns putting physical distance between us, and as people start to come back out into the world, there is a fear of contamination or transmission.

How can we remain safely apart while also finding ways of maintaining an emotional connection?
