Ever felt stuck in a sexless or passionless relationship? Or craved more in a relationship but didn’t know how to get there? Then you’re going to love this episode.
Allison and Jeff were both in sexless marriages before they got together. And as is almost always the case, sex is about more than just the sex — it’s also about connection, intimacy, joy, fire, and aliveness. The lack of it can feel stifling, or even soul-crushing.
As Jeff put it, “I wasn’t with someone that made me feel good about myself … It was like what you didn’t do wasn’t good enough; what you did do wasn’t good enough.” And in Allison’s words, “When I say there was no passion … there was no passion. At some point I realized we really had no relationship that didn’t involve our children.”
But don’t worry! Their story has a happy ending. They went from bad situations to finding one another, and now they have all kinds of wonderful, connected, kinky, delightful sex. 🙂 How’d they do it? Listen on.
