Conversations with Dr. Jennifer

When Desire is Difficult (and what to do about it!) | Q&A with Dr. Jennifer


Listen Later

For many women, sex feels like something to get through—another duty to manage, another expectation to meet. And yet, the more we pressure ourselves to “fix” our difficulty with desire, the more elusive it becomes.



This is because desire cannot be manufactured. It will never come from obligation, attempts to appease, or from sheer willpower. It only thrives in freedom—when we feel true to ourselves, at ease in our own skin, and at peace with how we are showing up in our lives.

In this NEW episode, Dr. Finlayson-Fife unpacks why women so often struggle with desire and and what they can do to cultivate a sexual relationship that feels alive and worth wanting. 

Listen to the full episode to learn:

  • Why you can’t force yourself into desire

  • How duty-based meanings suffocate women’s eroticism

  • The crucial differences between men’s and women’s sexuality

  • Why freedom and authenticity are the lifeblood of passion
