IN THIS EPISODE:

There can be so much pressure and angst around being “in the mood” - waiting for those tingly feelings to come and trying to capatalize on any desire during the day, only to lose it completely by the end of the night.

In this episode, I explain what the real deal is with “desire” and how we are getting it all wrong.

I talk about:

2 types of ways to want it in the bedroom, and the differences between them
Why waiting for those “tingly feelings” can be a waste of energy
What science is teaching us about “getting in the mood”
How I have regular experiences while rarely being in the mood.
The 5 motivations for sex that don't involve a physical reason

I hope this episode provides a sense of relief to those that are listening who have felt like they are broken or damaged due to not feeling spontaneously in the mood, and to know that there is hope in approaching the ways we connect in the bedroom in new and different ways.
