Go ahead, have an affair

I love the TV show Modern Family. There’s an episode in which Claire and her husband Phil go out on Valentine’s Day and pretend they are “Clive” and “Julianna” and have an affair with each other for the night.

My husband and I are trying something similar this month while both our kids are away at summer camp. We’re choosing to date each other rather than be married - and it’s been a blast! From wild nights out in NYC to having more time alone and choosing when to be together… the spark is in full force. 

Then I have a client who divorced her husband, and several months after the divorce was finalized, they started having an affair with each other. And it’s hot. The sex is hot. The laughter is beautiful, and the cooperation is phenomenal.

All this to say - 

What if we dated our spouses once a week and had an affair with them instead of with someone outside of the relationship?

Don’t forget about the power of using your imagination and your curiosity to help make mindset shifts and huge changes in your relationship.

Try something out this month - I’ll be cheering you on! 

And if you’d like some extra inspiration, follow my month-long affair on Instagram, where I’m trying to be less shy about posting what’s happening behind the scenes! ;)
