Ep. 36 - Desire Discrepancy w/ bestie Katie!!! Dec 07, 2020

Show notes

Ashley is joined by her bestie, Katie, to talk about challenges that come up when two (or more) people have differences in desire. We share conversation starters, some of the things that can lead to desire discrepancy, and how to reframe limiting beliefs around what sex looks like so you can find common ground. Plus, Ashley gets a little snarky.

Katie and Ashley have been best friends since 2006 and used to have a podcast together called Carnalcopia, which had many devoted and loving fans. This is the first of hopefully many #bestie episodes with Katie and Ashley on Elevated Intimacy, but as always, Ashley is happy whenever Katie can take time out of her hectic lawyer life to stop by.
