When partners experience different spiritual awakenings

My spouse and I both went through major spiritual shifts during the pandemic - in completely different directions - and now we're trying to figure out how to maintain intimacy when the things that give our lives meaning don't overlap anymore. We still love each other but feel like strangers when it comes to what we each consider sacred and important.
