The Realities of being a Highly Sensitive Person (and married!) May 15, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, I chat with Bahiyyih- a married mom of two young kiddos and a "Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)".

In this episode, Bahiyyih and I chat about how being an HSP has affected her life, marriage and sex life. We discuss the realities of being overwhelmed with the world most of the time and how her and her husband have navigated this extra challenge in their lives.

Stick around until the end to hear about what annoying behaviours she has that drive her husband crazy!

Household Management and Multiple Orgasms May 15, 2019

Show notes

In this episode I chat with Brittany, a busy mom of 4 who runs her own business and performs in local theatre.

She shares how her and her husband (who also has a full-time job and enjoys acting) have discovered how to run their household together with ease and joy.

The juiciest bit but be right at the end when she shares with us her tips for multiple orgasms!

Healing from Infidelity: A Couple Shares Their Experience May 08, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, I speak with Wendy and Billy- a married couple of 17 years who have courageously decided to share their story of healing from infidelity with us in hopes that it makes those struggling with this not feel alone.

It's very rare to have the opportunity to hear the story of an affair from both the husband and the wife and it was an incredible honour to witness their commitment and love for one another even in the midst of such a devastating challenge in their relationship.

One Couple's Journey Towards a Mutually Enjoyable Sex Life May 01, 2019

Show notes

This is a really special episode! It's not only the FRIST couple interview that I've done but it's also the candid, unscripted conversation AFTER the planned interview (that one will be released soon in a separate episode).

In this episode, I interview Stephen (Steve) and Lea- a genuine and sweet musical couple who are parents to a 6 month old son.

They recently went through my program so we talk about everything sex in this episode- from questioning religious messages, learning about their bodies, recovering from porn to how they are starting to enjoy a new way of connecting in the bedroom.

I enjoyed every minute of this conversation and I hope you do too!

And if you'd like to hear how they make "sweet music" together, listen in on their Christmas CD that they created together: https://stephencollins.bandcamp.com/releases

Finally, if you are curious about the steps that they followed to turn their sex life around, I invite you to my free webinar, "The Real Reason Behind a Lack of Desire and the 6-Step Solution to Reconnecting Again."

Ditching Duty Sex after 10 Years of Marriage Apr 24, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, I chat with Leanna, a sweet and thoughtful married woman who recently ditched duty sex after the birth of her daughter.

We talk about the postpartum issues that initially spurred on the change, including bacterial vaginosis which is very common and can cause a lot of pain during sex.

It was really fun chatting with Leanna about her honest thoughts about going through my program and she made me laugh... a lot.

If you are curious about the process that Leanna went through to finally start enjoying and looking forward to sex (after almost 10 years of marriage!), I invite you to join this free class, "The Real Reason Behind a Lack of Desire and the 6-Step Solution for Reconnecting Again"

Enjoy this episode!

Religion, Shame and Masturbation Apr 17, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, I chat with Rachel- an AMAZINGLY articulate married woman who agreed to get very real about her thoughts around religion, shame and masturbation.

We talk about her experiences growing up, learning about her body, navigating marriage and her current thoughts on what she calls "self-exploration".

Whether you identify with "religious" or not, this is a great episode for you since we all swim around in this silly shame culture when it comes to female bodies.

Handling Negative Thoughts about Your Spouse Apr 10, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, I chat with Dana about how she discovered the sweet spot between staying positive AND voicing her concerns and feeling her feelings in her marriage.

You definitely want to stick around to the end where we get super detailed about their couple bathroom habits. I'm still giggling at how cute it is ;)

Enjoy!

My husband Interviews ME! Mar 28, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, my husband interviews ME (from his car) about my work as a Marriage Coach, why I started this podcast, and some behind-the-scenes of our life together.

Listen to this one if you are curious who this crazy Janna Denton-Howes REALLY is ;)

If you can ignore the lovey-dovey mushy stuff towards the end, it's a great introduction to listen to.

One Woman's Struggle with Porn Mar 27, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, I chat with Emily- a young mother of 2 kids (one here, one on the way) about her struggle with porn.

We talk about how her and her husband met and actually became accountability buddies to quit the addiction early on in their relationship.

This woman is fierce, honest and offers so much RELIEF to anyone else with this challenge.

The Hope and Hurt of Infertility Mar 27, 2019

Show notes

In this episode I chat with Stephanie, a powerful woman of Faith who is courageously dealing with infertility. She offers her story of hope, hurt and leaning on her husband in this common struggle they share.

Whenever Stephanie talks, I always feel this deep peace and joy and I really don't want you to miss this wonderful experience.

So really settle into this one- you will benefit from this conversation even if infertility hasn't been your struggle.
