There’s one silent killer in relationships that most couples don’t see coming: emotional disconnection.
You might not be fighting or having big conflicts, but something still feels off. You feel distant, unseen, or like you’re living more as roommates than partners. In this episode, Dr. Frankie explains what emotional disconnection really looks like, why it happens, and what you can do to bring closeness back into your relationship.
Learn how to:
💬 Recognize the subtle signs of emotional distance
💞 Rebuild connection through vulnerability and small daily moments
🔥 Rethink conflict as a healthy sign of care and commitment
If your relationship feels flat or far away, this video will help you start finding your way back to each other.

About Dr. Frankie
I’m an optimist. I believe that love – finding it, sharing it, experiencing it – is within everyone’s reach.
But that doesn’t mean it isn’t challenging. Making connections can be inspiring, fulfilling – and overwhelming. That’s why I launched Little Gay Book in 2009. As the premiere lesbian matchmaking service in the United States, I bridge connections between women who have everything – except for someone to share it with.
Whether you’re a shy introvert seeking support as you peek out of your shell or a confident extrovert who knows what you want but can’t seem to find it, my intuitive approach, grounded in the emotional intelligence that comes from over twenty years of clinical psychology with lesbian, gay, and bisexual couples and individuals, is for you. I’m a Sagittarius and an old soul who can put anyone at ease. I’m energetic, focused, and driven in all areas of my life, but especially when it comes to my passion: helping people connect and create happiness and love. And I have the unheard-of 85% success rate to match.
I’m also a board certified sex therapist incorporating a holistic approach to pleasure and sexual connection into both my matchmaking and my one-on-one practices. Find out more.
Want to know more about me? I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, and am a parent of 18-year-old twins. I love crossfit and lifting heavy weights, my 20lb cat Ollie, and creating community wherever I go.
