“Love Love Love! Seriously, such a brilliant idea! Created a space for us to talk about intimacy and our communication in such a beautiful way. The questions on the cards are questions that have never popped up in my mind to ask, but questions I definitely deep down wanted to know. Then there were some questions I DID want to know, but maybe didn’t know how or when to bring it up, but the cards made it less awkward to bring up. I am a huge supporter!!! It will take a while to go through all of the cards, but when we do, we will be ready for you to come out with Vol. 2!”

“The hubby and I do three a night as part of our bedtime ritual after prayers. I’m loving them. We’ve been together 25 years and I’m learning new stuff about him!”

“I purchased a deck of cards last week and they arrived within a few days. I showed them to my husband and started explaining them to him… fast forward an hour later, we had a very deep and intimate conversation. Only two cards were uncomfortable but we will eventually go back to the questions when we are ready. Thank you Jessica for making these cards. It gave us a truly intimate moment. After being together for 14 years, it’s easy to get complacent and these cards were a huge help! I would absolutely recommend these cards to anyone and everyone, I will be getting the other two decks next week.” – Aida Escalanti
