Navigating sexual intimacy after the impact of pornography can be so difficult!

In this episode we do a deep dive to help you know how to integrate sexual intimacy back into your relationship in a way that feels comfortable and safe.

Many couples have lots of questions and reservations, tune in to learn:

• How do we know if we are ready for sex again?

   

• Will being sexual trigger him to watch pornography?

   

• Should we wait 90 days to allow his brain to reset?

   

• How can we create a foundation of safety and trust for intimacy?

   

• What if she gets triggered by sex and compares herself, feels inadequate or insecure or worries about what he's thinking of?
