Welcome, dear listeners! Todd Creager here, ready to dive into a topic that's crucial for every relationship but often swept under the rug. In this episode of "Let's Talk About Love, Sex, and Infidelity," we're exploring the surprising connection between conflict avoidance and physical intimacy. As a couples therapist, I've seen firsthand how avoiding tough conversations can put a damper on your sex life. But don't worry – I'm here to help you understand why this happens and what you can do about it!

Tune in to discover:

• The hidden intimacy killer that might be lurking in your relationship
• How being "healthfully selfish" can reignite your passion
• Practical tips to overcome conflict avoidance and improve your connection
• Real-life examples of how facing conflicts head-on can transform your sex life
• The neurobiological link between conflict and libido (don't worry, I'll keep it simple!)

Whether you're struggling with intimacy or just want to keep your connection strong, this episode is packed with insights that could transform your relationship. I'll share personal stories, client experiences (keeping everything confidential, of course), and give you actionable advice you can start using today.

So, grab your partner (or listen solo – that's okay too!) and join me as we make the world safer for love, one conversation at a time. Trust me, your future self (and your partner) will thank you for tuning in. Let's dive in and start building the passionate, connected relationship you deserve!
