One of the most common—yet least talked about—challenges in marriage is mismatched desire. What happens when one spouse wants intimacy more often than the other?
In this episode of The High Ticket Woman, Debbie Caudle opens the first part of a new series on mismatches in marriage: mismatched libidos, love languages, and lifestyles. Today, she dives deep into the dynamics of desire—why mismatches happen, how they impact the messages couples send to each other, and what practical shifts can turn feelings of rejection or pressure into opportunities for connection.
You’ll hear stories drawn from real couples (with names and details changed), along with insights from Debbie’s 30+ years of working with marriages. This episode will help you see that mismatched desire doesn’t mean something is wrong—it means you’re human. And with honesty, humor, and intentional conversations, you can build intimacy that feels safe, joyful, and mutual.
Tune in and discover how to move past frustration and into deeper closeness.
