The Partnership Podcast How We Built a Sex Ritual (and Why It Works!)
We’re picking up right where we left off in last week’s episode! Trey kicks things off with a scene where Lauren asks him not to masturbate because she’s craving his pursuit. What follows is a hilarious and eye‑opening exchange about dating each other inside a long‑term relationship.
From there, Lauren dives deep into spontaneous vs. responsive desire—and she doesn’t hold back about how frustrating it is that so many men want women to “just want them more,” without doing the work to actually understand responsive desire!
We break down the scene step‑by‑step and show how having the right tools (and the courage to use them!) helps us get the sex we both want. Then we open the door to one of our favorite parts of our week—our Sunday Morning Ritual.
We talk about:
What our ritual actually looks like (and why it’s never locked in stone)
How those slow, connected hours keep us craving each other
Why this practice feels like both an investment in our sexual connection and a trip to our “favorite restaurant”
Don’t forget to listen to last week’s episode first for the full story—then join us here for the deep dive!
