Episode 8: Anxiety in the Bedroom

After leaving a sexless marriage at age 30, Sky Studley felt adrift. Her body was changing, she was a single mom, and she felt more disconnected from herself and others than ever before. Sky tried therapy, but it wasn't until she learned about sex and relationship coaching that her body was able to start processing things. Only then did her healing really start to begin. Now a Life and Relationship Coach, Sky supports people navigating big life transitions and anxiety - especially in the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. In this episode, she shares how anxiety shows up in intimacy and gives us some ways to help ourselves and others through anxious moments in the bedroom… and beyond.   Join Sky and me as we discuss:  How anxiety shows up in sex, intimacy, and connection Common challenges anxious people experience with sex and intimacy Tools and strategies to handle anxiety in the bedroom   Tips for creating intimacy with an anxious person How different attachment styles are affected by anxiety Ways to use love languages to calm your anxious partner How to tell if someone wants to be with you but is just shy Starting intimate, vulnerable conversations while shy (or with someone who is shy) About Sky: Sky Studley, Life & Relationship Coach, is the founder of OpenSkySpace.com.
