Family First: Dr. Alexandra Stockwell’s Guide to Welcoming Your Future Son-in-Law

In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD and her husband Rodd Stockwell, MD dive into the deeply personal territory of welcoming their future son-in-law into the family when he asked for their daughter's hand in marriage. They touch on the nuanced process of preparing for the conversation, the emotional dynamics involved, and the broader cultural and personal implications of such a significant exchange.
Together, Dr Alexandra and Dr Rodd reflect on the experience knowing the importance of mutual respect and wanting to be intentional in meeting him with curiosity and open-hearted support. Dr Alexandra shares anecdotes that underline her professional insights, while Dr Rodd emphasizes the significance of being fully present and supportive, not just during the marriage proposal conversation but throughout the entire marital journey.
