Show Notes
In this special "Hanging with the Coopers" edition of the LIFE Podcast, Dr. C is joined by her husband, Rod Cooper.
Together, they dive into the critical dimension of social wellness and explore how it actively combats relationship burnout. You do not need a lavish, week-long vacation to reconnect; instead, discover how intentional date nights, local staycations, and everyday boundary-setting can create sustainable harmony in your partnership.
Backed by science from the National Marriage Project and the Gottman Institute, this episode provides a practical framework for prioritizing couple wellness amidst busy schedules.
What You'll Learn:
- How to effectively use calendar syncing to prioritize intentional date nights.
- The neurological benefits of experiencing new activities together, including the release of dopamine and oxytocin.
- Strategies for managing your shared social battery and setting healthy boundaries to reduce stress-inducing cortisol levels.
