Does this feel like you?
You are burnt out, and are experiencing a drop in desire following the weight of the mental load from day to day chores.
You have a male partner who is not understanding the complexity of where you are at and does not understand how you work to get in the mood to feel safe and connected before feeling desired?
Then this episode is for you!
Ashley Mariani who is a social worker specializing in couples therapy helps us understand that a woman's brain is not designed to feel desire towards the humans she is raising, hence lack of sex and intimacy.
If we want our male partners to take initiative we need to understand that most lack this right of passage into manhood and some even into fatherhood... this becomes a fine balance between women not allowing managerial parts ,like the controller, to take up space when male partners are attempting to make change.
There was a lot of ah ha moments in this episode especially understanding how our nervous system responds to these feelings and how to work through it
Please stay tunes for part 2 (not recorded yet)
