#173 - Breaking Through Trauma: Why Your Past is Blocking Your Intimacy Today

Is your body keeping a secret that's ruining your sex life? Discover why that lack of desire, connection, and fulfillment has nothing to do with your hormones, stress levels, or sexual techniques. 

We’re sharing one of our most popular episodes from 2023 where Dr. Jordin Wiggins reveals the hidden trauma response that's blocking your pleasure—even if you don't identify as a trauma survivor—and how to finally break free from the patterns keeping you from the intimacy you deserve.

In this episode, Dr. Jordin is sharing:

• Why 90% of sexual disconnection isn't about hormones or stress, but about your nervous system's ability to feel safe enough to experience pleasure, presence, and connection
• How high-functioning, successful women often carry unrecognized trauma responses that make it impossible to truly let go and connect during intimacy
• Techniques to regulate your nervous system, recognize your unique trauma response pattern (fight, flight, freeze, or fawn), and reclaim your capacity for deep, fulfilling intimacy

If you're craving a connection that won't fade, here’s what comes next:
