Have you ever had thoughts that: “The sex we had in the beginning of our relationship was the best we will have”, or even “I can’t talk about what I want more in our sex life because my partner will be uncomfortable or unwilling to talk”?  Well if you fall into that category, you are like many other couples out there. But just because you have a lot of company, this is not a place you want to continue to stay in. Imagine that no matter how busy you are, no matter how long you have been married, and no matter how open you or your partner have been to talking about your sex life… You can raise your sexual satisfaction starting right here in this episode!  In this episode you will know that no matter the season of marriage you are in now, your sexual future doesn’t have to be predictable but can be extraordinary. You will have ways to initiate sex more frequently and have it be balanced between you both, the challenges that face both men and women, and ways to communicate your most current needs. So you will feel more at ease and confident to explore your sexual intimacy with your partner and have your satisfaction be higher than it has in years!   Questions asked in this interview: Do you ever have times you’re dissatisfied with your intimacy and how do you bring it up to your partner? What are the biggest challenges that partners (even men specifically) are dealing with that keep them from bringing up the conversations about sex?  In the beginning of a relationship, intimacy seems to be more about passion and physical excitement. Does intimacy change to mean something different the longer you are in a relationship?  What is it that actually makes your sex life “better” over time, rather than fading?  What are the 5 types of intimacy?  Is there a real stereotype on men and women for what sexual intimacy means to each of them? (ex. Frequency vs being romanced)  In a season where a couple is upset and disconnected from each other, they wait to feel like having sex. Does a couple need to wait to “feel like it” to have sex or can having sex first be what brings that feeling back?  What is a practical way couples can practice initiating sex to have it be balanced?  Other resources: Follow us on Instagram Book your Relationship Breakthrough Session with us for $97, with 100% guarantee you have a breakthrough in your relationship.
