In this episode, we go over 7 questions and the reason we want to use these questions is to be able to create vulnerable moments in the relationship. A situation that you, and the other person are suggested to show your insecurities, fears, and weaknesses, which in terms of being equally executed in an honest manner, can form intimacy and provide a deeper connection.
