For over 20 years, I was in a s*xless marriage.
Not because I didn’t love my partner.
But because there were deeper layers: unspoken pain, disconnection, and patterns I didn’t yet understand.

In this podcast episode with The Common Ground Project USA, I share what I’ve learned through my own journey and through working with couples around the world.

We dive into:
→ Why s*xless marriages are rarely about s*x
→ How shame and early conditioning affect intimacy
→ The real impact of p**n on connection
→ Why emotional safety must come first

If you’ve ever felt disconnected in your relationship—or wondered how couples lose that spark—this conversation will open your eyes.

I used to believe that intimacy issues meant something was wrong with me…
or something was wrong with the relationship.

But what I’ve learned—through my own journey and through working with so many clients—is this:

Most of our struggles with intimacy don’t start in adulthood.

They start much earlier.

In the messages we received about our bodies.
In moments where we felt shame.
In experiences we didn’t fully understand at the time.

In this podcast conversation with , I open up about:

✔ How these early experiences create our “s*xual blueprint”
✔ Why shame—not lack of desire—is often the real block
✔ And how couples can begin to heal and reconnect

One of the most important truths I’ve come to believe:
👉 Pleasure is your birthright.

If your relationship feels disconnected…
If intimacy feels hard or absent…
There is nothing “broken” about you.

💛 I wrote The S*x & Intimacy Repair Kit to guide you step-by-step in rebuilding connection, communication, and desire.

There’s nothing “wrong” with your relationship just because it feels hard sometimes.

Real intimacy isn’t about avoiding conflict—
it’s about learning how to come back together after it.

That’s exactly why I wrote The S*x & Intimacy Repair Kit.

If you’re in a season where things feel messy, disconnected, or unclear…
this book will meet you there.

There’s a quiet loneliness many people carry…

Being in a relationship, yet feeling disconnected.
Sleeping beside someone you love, yet feeling miles apart.

I recently joined Avik Chakraborty on the Healthy Mind (Healthy Mind By Avik), Healthy Life podcast to talk about something I know so many couples experience—but rarely say out loud:

✨ When intimacy fades
✨ When desire feels like it’s gone
✨ When connection slowly drifts over time

Here’s what I shared:

Desire doesn’t disappear—it gets buried under disconnection.

Under unmet emotional needs.
Under unspoken resentments.
Under the absence of emotional safety.

And the path back isn’t about pressure or performance…

It’s about small, honest conversations.
It’s about creating safety.
It’s about choosing curiosity instead of blame.

If you’ve ever wondered where the spark went—or if it can come back—this episode is for you.

71% of couples say they prioritize emotional closeness over adventurous experiences.

That tells us something important…

Most couples aren’t craving more intensity.
They’re craving more connection.

And when that connection is missing, everything else starts to feel off.

This is exactly why I created The S*x & Intimacy Repair Kit — to help couples rebuild intimacy in a real, grounded, and lasting way.

There was a time in my life when intimacy felt painful… something I avoided… something I didn’t understand.

I was in a s*xless marriage until my 50s.

And like so many people, I believed something was wrong with me.

But what I’ve come to understand—through my own healing and through working with thousands of individuals and couples—is this:

✨ Pleasure is your birthright.

In this podcast conversation with Getting Real with Hilary, I open up about my personal journey—from a healthcare attorney to a s*x and intimacy coach… from disconnection to deep embodiment… from fear to trust.

We talk about:
• Healing s*xual shame and trauma
• Reclaiming desire at any stage of life
• Understanding and healing conditions like vaginismus
• And how safety is the foundation of true intimacy

If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your body, your partner, or your desire… this conversation may resonate deeply.

📖 And if this resonates, my new book The S*x & Intimacy Repair Kit is designed to help couples move from feeling like roommates back to lovers—through guided exercises, honest communication tools, and a new approach to intimacy centered on connection, not performance.

I was recently a guest on the Other People's Shoes podcast, and we had a deeply honest conversation about something many people experience—but few talk about.

For many years, I lived in a s*xless marriage.

From the outside, everything looked “fine”… but inside, I felt disconnected—from my partner, my body, and my sense of pleasure.

In this episode, I share that journey… and how it ultimately led me to rediscover intimacy, connection, and a completely new way of relating to myself and others.

We talk about:
• What it’s really like to live without intimacy for decades
• How our early conditioning around s*x impacts our adult relationships
• The difference between emotional and physical intimacy
• Why pleasure is something we’re born with—not something we have to earn

This is an honest, vulnerable conversation—and one that so many people quietly relate to.

👉 I’ve shared the episode link in the comments.

There was a time in my life when intimacy felt painful… confusing… even something to avoid.

I was in a s*xless marriage well into my late 40s, disconnected not just from my partner—but from my own body.

And then everything changed.

Not overnight. Not magically.
But through a journey of healing, safety, trust… and finally allowing myself to experience pleasure without fear.

In this upcoming conversation with , I share the real story behind that transformation—
how I moved from disconnection to deep intimacy, from tension to freedom, from surviving… to truly feeling alive.

We talk about:
✨ Healing from pain like vaginismus
✨ Reconnecting with your body and desire
✨ Why pleasure is not a luxury—but your birthright
✨ And how intimacy becomes possible when safety comes first

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body…
If intimacy feels complicated, pressured, or out of reach…
Or if you’re simply ready to experience more aliveness, creativity, and connection in your life…

This conversation is for you.

Most couples think something is “wrong” with their relationship when intimacy starts to fade.

But after working with hundreds of couples—and studying research from over 300,000 people—I’ve seen the same pattern again and again:

It’s not that love disappears.
It’s that connection slowly stops being intentional.

Life gets busy.
Stress builds.
Communication becomes surface-level.
And without realizing it… you start drifting.

This is exactly why I wrote The S*x & Intimacy Repair Kit.

Because intimacy isn’t something you just have.
It’s something you practice—every day, in small, intentional ways.

Inside the book, I guide you step-by-step on how to rebuild connection, improve communication, and bring back the intimacy you thought was lost.

And the good news?

If you’ve drifted apart…
you can absolutely find your way back—together.

Kai Wu of Somatica Institute described The S*x & Intimacy Repair Kit in a way that really captures its heart:

“A gift to couples who are struggling and want to feel closer — emotionally, s*xually, and in every way that truly matters.”

Because that’s what this work is truly about.

Not quick fixes.
Not surface-level advice.

But real, guided steps that help couples understand each other more deeply, communicate more openly, and reconnect emotionally and physically.

I wanted this book to feel like having a trained intimacy coach right there with you—supporting you through the process of rebuilding connection.

Because intimacy is something we can learn, practice, and grow into… together.
