Strong marriages require two partners who are willing to tolerate discomfort in order to increase their capacity for real intimacy.
Leaning into the discomfort that comes from being exposed and known sexually can be particularly dysregulating. It takes a lot of courage to take ownership of who you are and what you desire and then to share that most intimate part of yourself with your spouse.
Today we are re-releasing this popular podcast from the archive. In it, Dr. Finlayson-Fife joins Dr. Corey Allan of the Sexy Marriage Radio Podcast to discuss duty sex and what couples can do to bring more desire, passion, and aliveness to their intimate relationship.
Listen to the full episode to learn more about:
Spontaneous Desire vs Responsive Desire
Escaping exposure and responsibility through resentment
Limiting narratives around sexuality that keep couples from growth
Modesty as a form of self-respect
