Hey friend! Let’s talk about something tender, real, and far too common: painful s*x. In today’s episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie unpack Chapter 11 of their book, Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to S*xual Confidence & Desire, and they’re shining a compassionate light on what many women silently struggle with—unwanted pain during intimacy.

Let’s clear this up first: some couples enjoy a little playful pain in the bedroom with full consent and enjoyment. That’s not what we’re talking about today. We're talking about pain that’s unwanted, uninvited, and unresolved—and how it slowly chips away at your confidence, connection, and desire.

Here’s the truth:
 ✔ Pain during sex is common
✘ But it is not normal
✔ It is treatable—and healing is possible!

In this episode, Josh and Cassie (Certified s*x therapist & s*x educators) discuss:

• Why painful sex is not just “something you have to deal with”
• How your brain creates s*xual aversions—and how to reverse them
• What you can do at home to begin healing before seeking professional care
• Encouragement from Josh & Cassie’s experience walking with hundreds of women toward freedom.

Key Takeaways:

• Pain during s*x is common but normal and never something you should ignore or push through
• The longer pain is tolerated, the more likely it is to create emotional and neurological barriers to intimacy
• Healing is possible—and you are not alone in this journey
• You deserve a s*x life that is pain-free, confidence-filled, and full of desire

Don’t pretend everything’s okay when it hurts. And remember: you don’t have to carry this pain alone. There is hope, there is help, and there is healing. Your body is not your enemy—it’s a beautiful part of God’s design, and it deserves to be treated with compassion and care. You are worthy of a s*x life filled with joy, connection, and zero pain.
