Episode 58: The Truth About Sex in Marriage

Why does sex feel so complicated in marriage? If you've ever felt like something is wrong with you because you don't want sex as much as your husband…or sex feels stressful, pressured, disconnected, or simply not enjoyable—you are not alone. In this episode, we're having a very honest conversation about intimacy, desire, shame, nervous system regulation, pleasure, trauma, hormones, and the stories women carry around sex. I'm breaking down why you can't "should" yourself into desire, the difference between arousal and desire, how shame quietly kills intimacy, and why pleasure—not obligation—is the goal. We'll also talk about how healthy marriages create space for two whole people with different needs, preferences, and seasons of life to communicate honestly and care for their relationship together. This conversation is empowering, freeing, and deeply honest—and my hope is that it helps you release shame and step into a more connected, pleasurable, and authentic relationship with intimacy.   Come join us at our FREE online workshop Wednesday May 6th 11am EST Stop Feeling Like A Crazy Person In Marriage  Or come join us at our next in person event Marriage & Mocktails Saturday June 6th 7-10pm at The Portal Utica, New York  Or maybe your ready for the NEXT step and want to have a free consult with me, click HERE to apply.
