In this powerful episode of Resilience Redefined, host Michael Ostrolenk sits down with longtime partners Tripp and Alyson Lanier for a raw and insightful look at what it really takes to grow a relationship over two decades. With backgrounds in coaching, psychotherapy, and the Integral framework, Tripp and Alyson open up about the evolving nature of intimacy, the daily rituals that keep them connected, and the emotional safety required to deepen love over time.

From redefining roles and navigating conflict, to non-sexual touch and eye contact practices, this conversation is packed with hard-earned wisdom and practical tools for couples who want more than just longevity—they want depth, passion, and real connection.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

✅ How to keep emotional and physical intimacy alive over decades

✅ Why safety and trust matter more than just “communication”

✅ The role of daily touch, eye contact, and non-sexual intimacy

✅ How attachment styles shape how we love and connect

✅ What it looks like to grow individually and together in a long-term relationship

Whether you’re in a new relationship or decades into one, this episode will challenge, inspire, and equip you to show up with more presence, honesty, and resilience.
