107: Learning to Love Sex: A Sextimony with Jeff & LeAnn Austin Nov 04, 2022

Show notes

Announcement: Join the waiting list for the couples retreat in March!

For the next few episodes, I want to take a break from interviewing experts per se and showcase real stories from "ordinary" couples who have built extraordinary intimacy in their own marriages. One of the purposes of this podcast is to help as many people realize how wonderful sex is, and although it's sacred between a husband and wife, there's so much joy, excitement, expansion of self, growth, light, and connection through sex. It doesn't have to be such a taboo subject!

I'm excited for you to meet the first couple in this series! You'll get to meet LeAnn and Jeff Austin from Georgia. They share their story about how they grew from a functional sex life to an intimate and adventurous sex life later in their marriage. They have four sons. Their two older children are married now. Jeff works as an airline pilot and LeAnn recently started a life coach business helping people learn to love themselves and how to build a great relationships with their daughters-in-law.

106: Intimacy: More Will Than Skill with Dr. Dave Schramm Oct 28, 2022

Show notes

If someone were to ask you what's your definition of intimacy, how would you answer that question? And how would you explain to another person how to develop more intimacy in your marriage?

Also, how important are communication skills in an intimate relationship? What things interfere with our ability to communicate effectively with our spouses?

That's what Dr. Dave Schramm and I talk about today. Dave and I go way back. He was one of the keynote speakers of my second Get Your Marriage On! Live event back in 2019. He's a professor of Family Life in the Human Development and Family Studies department at Utah State University. He has his PhD from Auburn University.

You can find out more about Dr. Dave's work at drdaveschramm.com.

105: Uncompromising Intimacy with Alexandra Stockwell Oct 21, 2022

Show notes

There's a difference between a functional marriage and an intimate marriage. Some marriage advice people may have received is to compromise to keep the peace between a couple. This advice is great to keep the marriage functioning, but compromising on everything often interferes with creating an intimate marriage.

Today's guest is Alexandra Stockwell. She's got a fascinating story about why she became an Intimacy Coach.

101: Overcoming Roadblocks to Intimacy & Sexual Desire with Amy Langford Sep 23, 2022

Show notes

In every marriage, there's a person with a higher desire for sex and a person with a lower desire for sex. What are unhealthy and healthy ways of responding to your spouse's desire level? How can you work together as an intimate team to create a marriage that truly has room for both people, to transition from a "me vs you" to a more intimate "us"?

These are the questions I had on my mind when I met Amy Langford, a certified life coach, mother of 4, and fellow marriage & sex nerd. You're about to hear her story about how she learned to handle herself better in the midst of her husband's pursuit of sexual connection, navigate unwanted pornography use in the marriage, and a way to create space for more sexual desire within yourself, even if you're the one with less desire for sex.

99: Healthy Body Image with Vanessa Oly Sep 09, 2022

Show notes

Our bodies are absolutely incredible and attest to the marvelous power and intelligence of our great Creator. Our heart beats nearly 100,000 times a day. Our eyes have self-focusing lenses and work in tandem to help us see images in three dimensions. Through our bodies, we can hold loved ones, offer a loving touch, and even participate in creating new life. Our bodies are the temple of our spirit and the instruments of our hearts and mind.

Despite the miracle of a body, many people struggle with liking their body or struggle with a body that doesn't function the way they want it to, or just plain 'ol struggling to be confident in their own skin and size. Sometimes this goes on to loathing ourselves in unhealthy ways, affecting our intimate relationships.

Vanessa Oly is my guest today to talk about her journey of learning to love her own body as it is. Her own transformation inspired her to study nutrition, hormones, and fertility. She teaches other women how to embrace who they are and to understand how their body works.

98: Vaginal and Reproductive Health with Dr. Allison Rodgers Sep 02, 2022

Show notes

Many of you are in a similar phase of life as we are: raising young children and teenagers, and possibly thinking about having another baby. Conception is an incredible miracle because there are so many moving parts to making it work (no pun intended).

I had the privilege of meeting with a world-famous fertility doctor, Dr. Allison Rodgers a OB/GYN and Reproductive Endocrinologist. and I'm so happy you get to listen to part of what I learned.
