02/28/22 • 14 min
How many times have you heard the phrase "Say you're sorry", but when you try to apologize to your partner and it just seems to make things worse. That's because just saying "I'm sorry" isn't a real apology.
In this episode, you'll learn how to make a real apology, an apology that actually makes things better. How to apologize to your boyfriend, and how to apologize to your girlfriend.
And, most important of all, I'll show you how to avoid making the common mistakes that end up undermining your apology.

105. Senior Sex - Focusing on intimacy
In this episode, we're going to talk about how you can have a meaningful and important sex life no matter how old you are.
The idea that seniors aren't interested in sex or stop having sex is a lie. Older adults and older couples are very interested in sex. Sex, emotional intimacy, and physical intimacy are important parts of our lives and our relationships no matter what your age.
For many older adults feel a deep sense of shame about their aging bodies, and they find it very difficult to talk openly and honestly with their partner about sex. For many, it's easier to give up on sex than to talk about it.

106. Masturbation in Marriage with Dr. Ari Tuckman
Masturbation is often a taboo subject in marriage. People keep it hidden out of shame and fear of hurting their partner's feelings. And for some, a partner masturbating brings up deep feelings of shame. They feel that this is proof that they are not desired, and they feel deeply hurt that "my husband prefers his hand over me", or "my wife prefers her vibrator over me".
These feelings lead to efforts to ban masturbation from the marriage which just results in one partner hiding part of themselves. And, as we all know, trying to hide from your partner never turns out well.
Today I'm talking with Dr. Ari Tuckman on this important topic. Ari has a unique combination of skills. He is a psychologist, an expert on ADHD, and a Certified Sex Therapist. I think you'll enjoy this interesting show about sexuality and marriage.
