Doing It Together: Making Sense of Low Libido, Sex, and Intimacy in Marriage.

How to Stop People Pleasing & Speak Up For Yourself in the Bedroom - with Rowen | Ep. 76


Listen Later

From the early stages of her life, Rowen discovered immense fulfillment in the roles of people-pleasing and caretaking for those around her. However, she later realized that the price she paid for these roles was steep—it left her clueless about her own wants and needs.


As this pattern extended into her intimate relationship with her husband, her inability to assert herself resulted in exclusive attention to his needs, leaving her feeling alone and broken in her lack of desire for intimacy. Despite enduring long-term pelvic pain, her pleas for help were dismissed by professionals, and couples therapy seemed fixated on ensuring her husband's happiness.


It was only when Rowen embarked on a transformative journey with Janna that she experienced genuine change. Once she recognized her caretaking behaviour in the bedroom, Rowen emerged as the director of her sexual experiences. She now describes her sexual experineces as going “from a black and white movie into a full IMAX immersive experience.”


Tune in to hear Rowen's empowering story of reclaiming agency and steering her sexual narrative towards fulfillment and self-discovery.
