Making It Happen with Henry Ammar

Season 5: #20 - "The Secrets To More Love & Better Intimacy" With Relationship Expert, Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife


Listen Later

In this powerful discussion on intimacy, relationships, and how to heal sexual disconnect, Henry Ammar interviews the incredible relationship expert, Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife. 

Dr. Finlayson-Fife doesn't shy away from the tough truths: many of us are terrified of being truly known, holding back out of shame, fear, and past wounds. 

But what if you could turn your sexuality into a source of power and deep connection, rather than something to be feared or hidden? 

Here’s what we discussed: 

  • Why your fear of rejection is secretly destroying your chances at deep intimacy.

  • The sexual disconnect that (often) happens after marriage; and how to bring the loving passion back.

  • How the “good girl” or “nice guy” persona is ruining your love life and what to do about it.

  • How religious and conservative upbringings impact our relationship with sexuality, with intimacy, and with our own bodies.

  • How women who grew up with religious/conservative values especially struggle with healthy sexual expression. 

  • Why staying in an unhealthy relationship isn’t love—it’s fear.

  • The uncomfortable truth: Are you confusing sex with true intimacy?

  • The conflict between high-desire and low-desire partners. 

  • When your partner isn’t ready to do the work but you are.
