That thang ain‘t thangin no more; learning to express your need for more intimacy in your relationship

09/22/21 • 55 min

In this episode, the ladies discuss common causes for intimate disconnect, communicating your sexual desires, and maintaining them.

Restoring intimacy with your partner can be a difficult discussion, but it's a necessary one. It's often a taboo topic for many and an overlooked area that creates a healthy sex life. The need for emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical intimacy from your partner is sacred and shouldn't be taken lightly. Heck, even if your relationship is casual, you still need to form a connection in some way. Lack of intimacy in a relationship often feels like disconnection or distance. An invisible barrier or wall.

"Relationships don't die because of a lack of love. They die because of a lack of passion."-Tony Robbins
