Across the last two episodes, we’ve been discussing motivation and desire when it comes to sex, how they’re different, and how they interact with each other in order for you to have more pleasure. So often the terms “desire” and “arousal” are used interchangeably, but they really are not the same. Desire is the eagerness and wanting to have sex, and arousal is the physiological response to sexual stimulus. In this episode, we dive into what it means to feel aroused, how to get there, and why it’s the missing piece to your libido and being able to be a fully pleasured woman. 

I’m also really excited to share a recent testimonial I received from a woman in my group coaching program, Better Sex in 90 Days. We’re coming up on the last few weeks of the program, and there have been so many ah-ha moments, mindset shifts, and celebrations, and it has been such a joy to see the amazing things these women have accomplished. My next group coaching starts the first week of September, and I am currently accepting applications. To learn more and to apply, please go to https://daniellesavory.com/group/

As always, it’s been my absolute pleasure to bring this episode to you. I hope that it helps you understand arousal a little more, and to know that you can create thoughts so that you can become more embodied. Take a look at how you’re thinking about sex and putting pressure on yourself. Give yourself permission to become aroused, so you can get off and get the pleasure you deserve.
