The Intimate Marriage Podcast, with Intimacy Coach Alexandra Stockwell, MD


Dec 1, 2021

On this episode of The Intimate Marriage Podcast, I’m speaking with Nick and Dr. Elaine Stageberg about how they re-energized their marriage and the ways it has drastically improved their family and business. They own a very successful real estate investment company although they believe that they invest not in just property, but in relationships. Nick and Elaine have learned to invest in each other and that flows over into how they use their business to invest in other people. Together, we talk about the energy within marriage, how they have chosen to put one another’s needs above their own, and the positive impact that conflict can have on your relationship.
