354. Keeping The Spark Alive with Sex Therapist Vanessa Marin

I'm joined by Vanessa Marin, a licensed psychotherapist specializing in sex therapy. She's on a mission to help couples keep the spark alive in long-term relationships and de-stigmatize the conversation around sexual pleasure. We dive into her business story, the dynamics of working with her husband, and how they've gotten creative about promoting their work online. We chat about the intimacy challenges that so many couples face, including how to shift out of work or caregiver mode and settle into your groove as romantic partners. Vanessa shares amazing examples of transition rituals to break up the day and her top tools to ask for what you need in the bedroom. Plus, she shares a sneak peek of her new books Sex Talks, which is coming out on Valentine's Day of next year.

In this episode we talk about:

• What initially drew Vanessa to pursing a career as a sex therapist
• Getting more comfortable talking about sex with your partner
• How sharing more personal stories online created a monumental shift in Vanessa's business
• Reconnecting with your feminine energy, especially as a career-driven woman
• Tangible ways to start the practice of allowing yourself to receive
