"I want to want sex, but I just don't."
This started as a conversation about sexuality, empowerment, and specifically about Janna’s specialty of women married to men. As it happens, it became about MORE... About creating a life of pleasure and intention for ourselves in every way.
In this episode, I'm talking to Desire Coach Janna Denton-Howes about:
Janna's journey with "low libido" and how she started teaching this content
The Path to "Wanting it More"
Why Janna doesn't like the labels "low libido" or "low sex drive"
"Human Giver Syndrome" and how it impacts desire, especially for women
How to make time for sex when you are really busy
The importance of prioritizing YOUR pleasure (in every area!)
How to enjoy sex when you are exhausted and touched-out
I think we struggle with embracing SO MANY THINGS for pleasure’s sake. Whether it’s self care moments, or time alone, dessert!, movement four our own enjoyment, or that necklace you’ve been eyeing, I think we’re conditioned to make excuses for our desires, our needs, our pleasure. What would happen if you prioritized your own pleasure in any area of your life? What could that look like? What would that feel like?
I’m super interested in what this episode brings up for you. You can always DM me or email me!
