info_outlineLet’s talk about what everyone’s thinking but not always saying: is my sex life normal? In today’s innuendo-filled episode, we’re diving into five key areas to check in on with your partner: communication, desire, pleasure, connection, and exploration.
Coming from the unique perspective of being previously married to men and now in a relationship with each other, we share our insights on how deep intimacy can truly go in these five categories. We’ll also discuss why women fake orgasms (and the impact on both partners) and explore possibilities of why younger generations are having less sex overall. Get ready for an open, honest, and insightful conversation that just might change the way you approach intimacy!

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
-
Desire doesn’t diminish, it evolves. Long-term relationships don’t always mean your passion will fade. Instead, your desire can shift and deepen in ways you may not have expected, but you have to be intentional about it.
-
Honest communication creates a ripple effect. Open conversations with your partner can strengthen not just your relationship, but also your interactions with all the people you interact with.
-
Curiosity sustains intimacy. Staying curious and open to exploration—both emotionally and physically—keeps the connection alive and thriving. Just keep that open communication about boundaries!
