Sis, who is your husband sleeping with?
And NO - I do not mean he's cheating! I'm talking about YOU friend! Who is it that he lays down with at night? Is she passive? Aggressive? Docile? Timid? Confident? Is she carrying the weight of her past? Is she experiencing full pleasure?
Or merely dutifully checking the box? <--- sadly enough, this was me.
Married and broken - mom'ing and damaged - existing but not living. Afraid to explore my body because shame encompassed my sexuality.
Most women have an innate need to connect with their partners but more often than not, the emotional need for connectivity is necessary before the physical can transpire. This is especially true where unhealed trauma and shame reside.
But with most men hardwired to be the total opposite - how can we ever find common ground?
Join Jamia as she chats with Kristin Hodson, a licensed Clinical Therapist and Sex Therapist, as we gain insight and wisdom on how to bridge the gap, the benefits of masturbation, unpacking sexual shame, foreplay, sex toys and more.
If you WANT to be physically intimate, communicate your NEEDS and feel UNDERSTOOD, then this is the episode for you!
It's time to RE(set) your emotional mind and take ownership of who your husband is sleeping with - once and for all!
