Most partners don’t fall out of love— they fall out of care.
In this powerful episode, marriage coach Kameran Thompson Alareqi breaks down why “care” is more than acts of service, more than love languages, and more than doing the dishes. It’s about being noticed, being considered, and being held in mind.
Too many couples secretly believe:
“My partner doesn’t care about me.”
And the truth is…it’s rarely intentional neglect. It’s almost always a lack of awareness, emotional attunement, and early conditioning that taught people to be “I-focused” instead of “we-focused.”
In this episode, you’ll learn how to rebuild a culture of care inside your home—one grounded in emotional connection, presence, and shared responsibility.
