So many of us carry hidden shame around sex and our bodies, often without realizing where it comes from. It’s not always the big, obvious traumas that hold us back. Sometimes it’s the small moments, a comment from a partner, or years of messages that made us feel something about us was “wrong.” In this episode, we explore how those experiences shape the way we connect, desire, and open up during intimacy. You’ll learn how to start releasing shame, feeling safe in your body again, and rebuilding a deeper connection to your pleasure.

They say sex changes after 40, and it’s true, but not in the way most people think.

You’ll learn how emotional connection, self-awareness, and trust play a bigger role than ever, and how this shift can make sex feel more real, more relaxed, and more meaningful. If you’ve ever worried that desire fades with age, this conversation will show you the opposite; that when you lead with your heart, your 40s (and beyond) can be the most connected and satisfying time of your life.

Have you ever found yourself shutting down during sex (or noticed your partner doing the same) and wondered why? In this video, we talk about what’s really happening when one or both partners disconnect during intimacy. It’s not just about physical arousal; it’s often about emotional safety, stress, past experiences, or feeling unseen and misunderstood. We’ll explore the deeper reasons people go numb, withdraw, or feel “checked out” in intimate moments, and what couples can do to gently reconnect. If you’ve ever felt like your body or your partner’s body just “turns off,” this conversation will help you understand the why and how to rebuild trust, openness, and closeness in your relationship.
When one partner wants sex all the time and the other doesn’t, it can create deep tension, and sometimes even lead to betrayal. In this video, we talk honestly about what happens when an overly sexual man and an undersexual woman try to navigate intimacy, unmet needs, and the pain that can come from infidelity. We explore what’s really behind these mismatched desires, how resentment and shame build up over time, and what it takes to heal and rebuild trust after it’s been broken. This isn’t about blame, it’s about understanding, communication, and learning how to reconnect in a way that feels safe, honest, and real. If you’ve struggled with desire differences or are trying to recover from infidelity, this conversation will help you see what healing can actually look like.
Let’s be honest, a lot of women have faked it at some point. But why does it really happen? In this video, we talk about the real reasons women pretend to enjoy sex when they’re not fully feeling it. It’s not just about sparing someone’s ego; it’s often about pressure, performance, and wanting to keep the peace. We’ll explore what’s really going on underneath, how communication (or lack of it) plays a big role, and what couples can do to bring honesty and real connection back into their sex life. If you’ve ever wondered why this happens or how to stop feeling like you have to fake it...this conversation will open your eyes and maybe even your heart.
