You might think that sharing a bed with your partner is an essential part of a romantic relationship, but what if I told you otherwise? What if I told you that many couples sleep separately, and it doesn't negatively impact their relationship? That's just what we're discussing in this week's episode of Brazen. We - Kali and me - bring our personal experiences to the table, examining the stigmatized topic of sleeping separately from your partner. We go beyond the societal norms and explore how it can actually be beneficial for your relationship and your sleep health.

We don't just stop there. We dig deeper into the dynamics of sleeping arrangements within relationships, analyzing the pros and cons of sharing a bed. We touch upon situations when separate bedrooms become a necessity, like when your partner is working night shifts or is unwell. We even open up about our own sleeping conditions, such as room temperature and the weight of the duvet, revealing how these personal preferences might influence your decision to have separate bedrooms.

But this episode isn't all about sleep. We also take a fascinating dive into the world of romance and love languages, sharing our personal interpretations and experiences. We discuss why small acts of kindness often mean more to us than grand displays of affection and how this connects with our love languages. Whether you're curious about separate bedrooms, intrigued by love languages, or both, we promise you a stimulating and enlightening discussion. So, tune in and let's stir up some fascinating conversation together on Brazen.
