“I’ll give you one other hint that I truly love,” Dr. Pepper begins telling the couple, preparing to share her advice. “I think if you’re gonna have a tough discussion, hold hands.” The simple gesture seems to resonate with Stacia who is quick to respond, “Oh my god, my mom told me the same thing.”

With a laugh, Dr. Pepper says, “Love your mom.” She goes on to add that “it’s true,” and encourages the pair who are sitting in front of her to hold hands now as a “tiny experiment.” She then asks the duo, “Do you not instantly feel more connected?”
