Desire does not disappear with age, disappointment, or life experience. But many men quietly convince themselves that wanting more closeness, affection, intimacy, or emotional connection is unrealistic or selfish.

In this episode of Here Comes Sunshine, I will share a permission-giving conversation for men who feel a deep longing for more but have learned to silence it.

More emotional closeness.

More tenderness.

More connection that feels mutual and alive.

This episode explores why wanting more can feel risky later in life, how men often settle out of fear rather than truth, and what it means to honor your desires without shame or pressure.

If you have been telling yourself it is too late, too much, or not meant for you, this episode is an invitation to listen to your heart again.

You are allowed to want more. At any age.
