Sex for Saints

Episode 377 - Good Enough Sex


Listen Later

Have you ever found yourself thinking, "We should have sex… but I'm just not feeling it" - only to go through the motions and walk away feeling disconnected? You're not alone. In this episode, we're talking about a concept that might just change how you think about intimacy: Good Enough Sex. It's a model developed by sex therapists Barry and Emily McCarthy that shifts the goal of sex away from pressure and perfection and toward emotional connection. We'll talk about why sex in long-term relationships doesn't need to be earth-shattering every time to be meaningful. You'll hear why letting go of unrealistic expectations can actually make intimacy more enjoyable, and how "just okay" sex can still be deeply satisfying when it's rooted in mutual respect, presence, and love. This episode is for anyone who's ever felt the weight of performance in the bedroom and wondered if they were the only one. (Spoiler: you're not.)
