299: "I'll Never Be Enough" vs. the "Try-sexual"
About this episode
In this episode, I respond to a vulnerable question from a wife navigating desire differences, purity culture, and a husband who seems to always want more—more novelty, more frequency, more intensity.
If you've ever felt like:
-
You're not "enough" sexually
-
Your spouse is never satisfied
-
Sex has become a source of pressure instead of connection
…this episode is for you.
We'll talk about:
-
The three core drivers of sexual desire
-
Why anxiety can increase desire in one spouse and decrease it in the other
-
The "try-sexual" dynamic
-
How ego can quietly sabotage intimacy
-
What true sexual maturity actually looks like
This isn't about doing more, but becoming more mature, grounded, connected and intentional.
