Ep17 | S*xual Intimacy in Long-Term Relationships - Call-In Show Part 2

Listen Later

We all have ups and downs in our relationships -- and some times are more intimate than others. There are many paths to intimacy, and intimacy means different things at different times. In today's episode, a listener seeks support around blocks to s*xual intimacy in her long-term relationship. This is an episode in two parts: in part one we explore and reframe relationship challenges, and in part two we talk about solutions and healthy, connected ways to explore these challenges for ourselves.
