Transform Your Marriage: 6 Intimacy Skills Every Woman Needs | Cristie Cerniglia

In this heartwarming and practical episode of Pockets of Knowledge, host Desiree Stanley sits down with Cristie Cerniglia, founder of Relationships With A Map and certified Laura Doyle relationship coach, to explore how we can transform our marriages and partnerships by focusing on ourselves first. Cristie shares her personal story of going from heartbreak and fear after witnessing her parents’ divorce to building a thriving 30-year marriage of her own, even through difficult seasons.

Cristie introduces the six intimacy skills she now teaches to help women create happier, more connected relationships — starting with self-care, relinquishing control, and embracing respect. She explains how taking responsibility for our own happiness, letting go of the need to manage everything, and learning to receive graciously can reignite the joy and partnership in our homes. Cristie also dives into the power of gratitude and vulnerability, showing how these practices can shift the entire dynamic of a marriage from resentment and frustration to teamwork and intimacy.

Throughout the conversation, Cristie offers down-to-earth tips on communicating with your partner, recognizing hidden patterns that sabotage connection, and creating a positive, joyful tone in your household. You’ll hear practical examples of how to apply these skills, plus encouraging reminders that change really does start with you.

Whether your relationship feels a little stale or is on the brink of collapse, Cristie’s warm and empowering message will remind you that there is always hope — and that by making small, intentional shifts, you can start building the marriage you truly want.
