Igniting Fierce Intimacy | Real Talk with Terry and Belinda

Belinda and I welcome back our Real Talk series with a powerful and moving conversation with newlyweds Chris and Marco. Just 24 hours into their marriage, we sit down to work through their common relationship issues, including feelings of shame, abandonment, and fear of rocking the boat. It’s a full-length conversation that shares our relationship advice on how to move beyond dysfunctional childhood roles, speak up and assert needs, and practice what I call fierce intimacy. Watch now to learn why even the most loving intentions can quietly pull partners apart — and how to make new moves that will bring you back together for lifelong romance. ----- WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: How shame shuts down repair and blocks closeness The difference between shame and remorse — and why that matters How our childhood shape how we show up in our relationships today How to stop caretaking and assert your needs Why real intimacy requires risk, assertion, and truth-telling ----- Would you like to be in a future Real Talk episode?
