Are you and your partner struggling to communicate about sex and intimacy? Join us as I talk with Elizabeth "Liz" Polinsky, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. Liz offers her expertise on navigating conversations about sexual desire, boundaries, and past experiences, while also shedding light on the impact of sexual trauma and societal messages on our relationships.

Dive into the complexities of sexual distress within relationships and learn how to determine when it's time to seek help. We discuss the intricacies of infidelity, balancing different levels of sexual desire, and finding harmony during the early stages of a relationship. With Liz's guidance, you'll gain valuable insights and practical tools to strengthen your emotional and sexual connection with your partner.

Finally, we address the often-taboo subject of non-monogamy and its role in healthy relationships. Together, we explore the shift in cultural attitudes towards monogamy, the differences between infidelity and non-monogamy, and how to approach these hard conversations with your partner. By the end of this episode, you'll feel empowered to embrace your sexual desires, navigate differences in adventurousness, and understand the nuances between sex drive and emotional closeness. Don't miss this candid and informative discussion with the insightful Liz Polinsky!
