Drawing closer: the 7-day Intimacy series
Intimacy is more than a moment; it is a direction you keep turning toward. Cleave''s Intimacy series is a gentle, seven-day guided set of conversations to help you draw closer — emotionally first, and physically too.
What the week looks like
Each day offers a short, thoughtful prompt for the two of you to talk through — nothing rushed, nothing clinical. The series moves gradually, building safety and openness one honest conversation at a time.
Who it is for
- Newer couples learning to talk about closeness without awkwardness.
- Long-married couples who have drifted into routine and want to reconnect.
- Any couple after a busy or bruising season, wanting to find each other again.
Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. — Genesis 2:24
Set aside a few unhurried minutes each evening and let the prompts do the work. Closeness grows where couples keep making room for it.
