We’ve talked about what turns women on… let’s hear about men!! It might not be what you expect...

We’re borrowing from Michael Castleman’s insightful research on male libido. Contrary to popular belief about what turns men on – a supermodel, beauty, lingerie… the research actually says there are much bigger, deeper factors.

The #1 factor? Desire, feeling wanted. Let’s talk about some of the main factors that impact male libido...

Ok let’s talk about this… ⬇️

We’ve had some couples lately that talk about needing to make intimacy more consistent.

After leaning into why they have an issue making it consistent, we get news that the wife didn’t feel as though she got anything out of certain acts.

Upon further news, we hear the husband had erectile issues.

Putting this all together, the wife felt it was arousing to see her partners p*nis go through the stages of change during s*x and she missed being able to give him an or**sm.

Without this, she felt a loss in excitement and motivation to keep trying. S*x fell off the table.

It is important to “get” something out of s*x other than physical closeness to your partner. We are selfish people and need that thing that keeps us wanting to come back for more.

And women who DON’T feel this sense of accomplishment, confidence, arousal in seeing what you can do to your partner, can we lean into this mindset some? Try it out? Do we think this will help us “enjoy” more him-focused foreplay and s*x in general?

It was our absolute honor to teach approximately 50 couples therapists in Nashville about the s*xual attachment cycle and how to find the glimmers of erotic energy in their shut down clients. This was so dear to our hearts as many told us we changed their own lives with our work!

Thanks to all who attended and helped to make this happen!

One of the most common feeling withdrawers report to us is feeling criticized. And we know, pursuers come across critical when the negative cycle takes over.

But something we don’t often think about is that withdrawers aren’t the only ones that are feeling this way. Pursuers often criticize themselves for how they respond in the negative cycle towards their partners.

It is true, they get down on themselves. Get mad at themselves. And begin to lose some of their self compassion.

So the withdrawer is getting down on themselves, thinking and feeling they are not good enough, are stupid, never going to get it right, etc. And pursuers are also getting down on themselves, thinking and feeling they are unlovable, hard to be with, uptight/mean/anal, etc.

Is this something we knew about our pursuing partner, withdrawers? Is this something we share with our withdrawing partners, pursuers?

Today’s episode is our final lesson from our ‘School of Love’ series and we are talking all about secure love and how to maintain it.

At this point, we’ve identified the negative emotional and s*xual cycle, the role you take on in the cycle and how to slow it down. At the heart of the negative cycle is unmet needs and the creation of the positive cycle is centered on these needs being met.

Great couples are great at repairing. The positive cycle isn’t about perfection rather quick and meaningful repair when we get it wrong. These new experiences continue to confirm secure love. Where the cycle once caused chronic disconnection there is now regular, anticipated connection.

Join hosts, George and Laurie for ideas on rituals you can do in your relationship for connection, how to be more intentional and solidify the positive cycle. Keep it secure and hot y’all!

Happy 5 year Anniversary to us! Just when we began - Covid hit and we didn't meet in person again for about 18 months. Lots of work has gone into this partnership. We've created content, struggled to understand what's important to couples, further developed concepts in EFT, been all over the world together, gotten to know each other's families, taught and fought, wrote and rewrote. We've been acknowledged by the press and peers and we've survived some criticism too. We've learned from each other and stretched as people. And it's been fun too - we've laughed til we were silly. We've talked about s*x, baby!

In today’s episode, Laurie and George answer a listener’s mailbag question. We love getting these write-ins and acknowledge the courage it takes to ask for help!

Our listener is a burned out or almost burned out s*xual pursuer that is frustrated and saddened by their s*xless marriage. Covid, menopause, adult children at home are circumstances this couple is facing and blocks for intimate connection.

George and Laurie give expert advice on how to navigate this situation, some of the physiological challenges impacting this couple and how to craft a thoughtful, caring and loving conversation to bridge the gap.

Both pursuers and withdrawers will gain insight into the lives of their partners and we remember to blame the cycle to de-escalate the tension and encourage vulnerable conversation.

Withdrawers appreciate a break. They appreciate a reset. It can take a lot to fight against the negative cycle.

A big tip for helping manage the change process is taking a break. Let time pass for a bit and come back to where you left off.

Take a recess when it feels appropriate and come back and continue to fight together against the negative cycle.
