206. Expectations vs Reality: When Sex Doesn’t Go As Planned


Listen Later

Ever had sex that didn't live up to your expectations? Maybe you didn't feel the way you thought you "should" or things didn't turn out the way you imagined. Moments like these can lead to some serious negative feelings, making you want to avoid sex altogether. Luckily, Sex Therapist Jessa Zimmerman is equipping us with all the tips, tools and knowledge to navigate these tricky times. We cover:


  • What sexual avoidance is, how it can feel, and WHY it happens
  • Redefining all the "shoulds" that come with sex
  • Tools for navigating sexual avoidance
  • Understanding low libido
  • Rethinking the belief that "the low desire partner needs to change"
