- This week I sit down with Alex Limanowka, a relationship expert who works with cross-cultural couples. We chat about the most and least compatible cultures in a relationship, the biggest struggles cross-cultural couples face, and how to deal with those struggles.

Each week I will interview guests from all around the world on the topics of culture, connection and of course, dating. The goal is to go as deep as possible and to really understand where we all come from and how much culture influences our life.

where is the interview with the Indian woman dating a Swedish man? I'd love to watch!!
These interviews are in my book "Sex Before Coffee: A Guide to Dating in Scandinavia" so you can get it on Amazon. I have a link on my Instagram or you can search it!
I enjoyed that interview very much. So much basic insights and experiences. I'm now reading the book of Batja Mesquita which Alex mentioned. Great thanks to both of you for the episode!
I am so happy you liked it!
34:14 - tips from the therapist on how to succeed in a multicultural relationship
1:29:00 - raising kids (whether together or as co-parents after breaking up), aging parents, think in advance and ask yourself those questions as soon as possible to know the direction you want to go given that you're in a cross-cultural relationship and the challenges that may arise, etc.
1:31:34 - understand your own culture and its impact on you, prepare your "offer" (know what you offer: aka what are your values, who are you), be open & ask instead of assuming (be *curious* about their culture), don't treat one culture as superior (both cultures are important), your partner and your partner's culture should be valued equally, shape your own identity, don't be afraid to ask big like questions ("what are we going to do if__") to get better understanding,
please bring her back for another interview again please :') I love this interview! and/or please bring on more relationship experts hehe ^_^
Yes! The goal is to have more experts in this Podcast!
Thank you ladies! You've afforded an excellent and insightful discussion which will be beneficial to many viewers.
