Episode 251 - Empowered Sexuality Feb 10, 2023

Show notes

What is empowerment? More importantly, how can we be sexually empowered? In this episode, we're going to not only answer these questions, but also how to know if we are sexually empowered or if we're just seeking outside validation. Sexual empowerment feels differently for everyone which is why it's something we evaluate for ourselves rather than have someone else tell us. Listen to find out how to be empowered sexually.

I'm excited to share with you a teaser for my new subscription podcast, Embracing You. In this Embracing You episode, I talk to Emily about how shame is affecting her sex life. We discuss where this shame comes from and some ways to get over it. Sexual shame is something I see a lot in my clients, especially in our conservative Christian culture, even though we don't always see it as shame. Listen in as I teach Emily what she can do to stop letting the shame keep her from getting what she truly wants.

In this episode, I am talking to my friend and mentor, Aimée Gianni, about how to have a covenant marriage. So often we stay in our broken marriages because we made a covenant. But what if doing that is actually breaking your covenant?

Aimée offers some amazing things to think about if we are at the point where we are thinking about divorce. Even if we're happy in your marriage, her advice can help us progress along the path.

Episode 245 - How Conflict in Marriage Builds Intimacy: An Interview with Crystal Hansen Dec 30, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, I'm talking with fellow coach and my real life best friend, Crystal Hansen, all about how conflict actually builds intimacy in your marriage. I know this sounds counter intuitive, but it really does work. We all want to feel connected and when we try to avoid conflict, that creates a wedge in our relationships. Crystal shares with us Gottman's Four Horsemen of conflict and the antidotes for each one. This episode is a great way to start thinking about who we want to be in our marriages next year.

New Podcast: Couples in Conflict

Episode 244 - How My Spouse's Faith Journey Affected Our Sex Life - An Interview with Lisa Frehner Dec 23, 2022

Show notes

Often in marriage, if there is disconnect in one part of the relationship, there is also disconnect in the bedroom. That's how I came to know my guest today, Lisa. After getting married in the Temple, Lisa's husband had a faith crisis and left the Church. Lisa was angry at him for changing the future that she had envisioned for them. She and her husband found therapy and that really has helped her marriage, but she still didn't want to have any sort of intimacy in their relationship. That's what brought her to coaching. I love what Lisa shares about hope and love and joy in this episode. Even if you are not going through the same thing, you will love her message.

So, in this episode, we're going to look at how masturbation can increase your connection and intimacy in your marriage, if done in a healthy way. Curious? Listen in!

Episode 242 - How To Flirt Dec 09, 2022

Show notes

I recently had a client tell me that she has forgotten how to flirt. She wanted to find a way to make her marriage feel like more of a partnership rather than a business relationship. So, here is Flirting 101. Maybe it's been awhile, maybe you have never been too good at flirting, but flirting is a great way to connect with your husband on a deeper level. Let me show you how!

Show notes

I often have women come to me wondering why they've never had an orgasm. I realize how frustrating it is for both the wife and the husband. I want to help! Why? Because pleasure is important! In this episode, we'll talk about the 3 things to rule out physically that could be stopping you from having an orgasm. Then we'll talk about the mental issues that could be keeping you from enjoying orgasms. These are things I help women with all the time. Maybe there's something you haven't thought of before.
