“Hey, honey. How was your day?”
“Good… busy… how was yours?”
“Yeah, same. Good. …”

“Cool… hey, what’s for dinner tonight?”

Does this feel familiar? For many of us, connecting with our wives seems like it should be easy but the reality is it’s anything but. If you’re here you probably want a deep, authentic, emotionally-connected relationship with your wife but you may not even know where to begin.
Be honest – on a scale of 1 to 5, how would you rate the level of connection you’re currently experiencing with your wife or partner? A 5 would mean “this is the best it’s ever been!” A 3 would mean “it could be better, it could be worse, but it’s okay.” And a 1 is “We’re in trouble! We are hardly connecting at all.”
If you answered anything less than a 4, keep reading.
Navigating deep, intimate conversations can be challenging and in most cases the reason we’re not connecting comes down to the questions we’re asking. The Dad Edge Podcast, hosted by Larry Hagner, addresses this issue head-on in the episode “25 Intimate Conversation Starters”. This episode offers a crucial toolset that can be used in every facet of your life, facilitating genuine connections through generative questions that lead to deep, authentic connection.
“The quality of our life is dependent on the quality of the questions we are asking ourselves and those that we love most.”
