What does it look like to enjoy sex during the luteal phase?
Can you say "no" to sex with your spouse?
How can you navigate a spontaneous vs. responsive libido?
Dr. Sarah Bartel is joining me again to answer all of your sex questions you submitted to me on Instagram! We don't hold back, so this episode is practical, specific AND in alignment with Catholic Church teachings on human sexuality and morality. Interviewee bio: Sarah Bartel helps married Catholics grow closer to God and closer to their beloved at CanaFeast.com. A moral theologian and mom of five, she and her husband of twenty years created the Cana Feast virtual marriage ministry to help bring the benefits of marriage retreats to more couples. She co-edited A Catechism of Marriage and Family Life for CUA Press. She hikes, reads Jane Austen, and has adventures with her family in the Seattle area. You can find her on Instagram and Facebook @canafeast and @drsarahbartel.
