Let’s be real: most couples stop talking about sex long before the problems start showing up in the bedroom. In this raw and honest episode, we tackle real problems that destroy happy marriages not because of lack of love, but because of lack of communication.

Whether you're newlyweds or decades deep into married life, this episode unpacks the 4 sexual needs most couples never talk about and why avoiding them causes emotional and spiritual distance. From desire differences and the orgasm gap to the power of non-sexual intimacy and overcoming sexual shame through God’s power and grace, this conversation blends marriage coaching, relationship expertise, and faith-based insight to help you reconnect in the most sacred space of your marriage.

We cover:

  • Why sexual desire discrepancies create conflict and how to talk about them without blame
  • The truth about orgasm inequity and how to close the pleasure gap
  • How non-sexual affection builds trust, emotional intimacy, and stronger sex
  • What it takes to explore your sex life without shame, guilt, or fear

This is a no-hype, no-guilt zone rooted in honesty, support, God’s power, and genuine conversation whether you’re healing from marital issues, struggling with intimacy, or just want to love your spouse more fully.

💬 Plus: Listener Q&A on feeling unfulfilled, how to bring up tough topics, and why you’re not broken, you just need better tools.

👉 Perfect for couples navigating dating, newlywed years, or decades of messy relationship challenges, this episode blends humor, faith, and expert talk with practical conflict resolution tools to deepen your romance and reignite connection.

🎯 Challenge: Pick one of these 4 silent needs and have a no-pressure conversation with your partner this week. No expectations. Just honesty.
