Distant.

Less close.

If sex has started to feel like pressure instead of connection…

This episode will help you understand why.

Because most couples don’t mean to create pressure.

But over time, it builds and it changes how your body responds.

If you’ve ever felt:

If you want sex less than your partner…

you’re not broken.

But it does mean something is happening underneath the surface.

    This looks is the one episode that I really wanted to listen to. It is something we struggle with in our marriage. The audio was terrible. I’m surprised n one has said anything. I like the podcast, but there is a lot talking about books and research, and not a lot of useful information on the actual subject. It’s like the subject is introduced and an explanation is given, but there is not a lot of in depth, helpful advice given. That part seems to be glossed over. For those of us who are Latter-... more

  • First time listening and love it!

    I really love all the information on this podcast. I see there aren’t many podcasts per year and that’s fine. Just wondering and hoping that there will be more. I’ve been binge listening and I’ve gotten so much out of it.

  • Excellent podcast!

    This podcast is a must for all Later Day Saint couples, especially those who have recently married or are about to be married. In our religion we only hear the “don’t”s when it comes to sex. This podcast will give you some “do”s. Dr. Hughes talks about this subject in a very respectful and reverent way. Wish I had heard these messages 20 years ago!

    Anthony helped my husband and I onto the path of healing when we were attending therapy sessions in the past. I’ve been very grateful for what he taught us, and I’m excited for this podcast as an additional resource to help us on our journey. Thank you Dr Hughes for making a difference!
