The Ultimate Intimacy Podcast

So many couples keep score in their marriage trying to keep things fair, or following the 50/50 marriage model, and wonder why it only makes things worse. When you keep score, you then become competitors where there is ALWAYS a winner and a looser, instead of working together as a team.You try to keep things equal, but it is impossible to do so. This causes resentment, imbalance and will kill your intimacy as a couple. In this podcast episode Nick and Amy share their experiences of earlier in their marriage and how they went away from this model and why they did, and why you should as well.

A transaction is an exchange of goods or services, and something that is typically a win win for both parties involved. For example, we buy groceries and our family gets the food we need to survive, and the store gets our money. A home buyer buys a house and the seller makes money (or gets rid of the house). In our jobs, we trade our time and skills in exchange for money! Just about everything we do in life is a transaction in some way or another, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. So why would transactions in marriage or sexual intimacy be any different?Amy loves back rubs (and I know that), and I enjoy being intimate with her (and she knows that) so often times we climb into bed and I give her an amazing back rub and we make love. It is a win - win for us both! We are both satisfied and happy and we do this because we love each other, we our marriage is strengthened.So many couples look at transactional things as a horrible thing. We get comments like  "my husband is just doing this for me because he wants to have sex" or "I am just giving him sex so that he will do ________"In this episode we discuss transactional sex and chore play, and let you decide if it is something that can work for your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Being a parent is amazing and so rewarding, and no parents would trade it for anything. But unfortunately for many couples, their marriages and intimacy often take a back seat to the kids, and because of that, the marriage suffers. Couples justify this and say "we will focus on our marriage once the kids are gone." Your relationship isn't something you can just turn on and off like a light switch. Marriage takes a ton of effort and it is something you have to work on constantly, and it is never stationary. You are either growing closer together, or further apart. If you want a happy and successful marriage, you have to put your marriage first and make time for your relationship and the sexual intimacy! Even with kids, you can still prioritize your marriage and rediscover sexual intimacy. It might take more effort than it did before, but it will be well worth it.In this episode Nick and Amy talk about the ways to rediscover your intimacy and the things you can do to make it a priority your your marriage.

In a previous episode with Alex Boye, he talked about the power of our words and the impact it can have on not only to ourselves, but to our spouse (and others). There are villages in Africa that take this so seriously, they will kick you out of the village if you are too negative as they believe the words can poison the whole village. In this episode Nick and Amy tackle the hard topic of verbal abuse. When most people hear the word "abuse" they think of horrible things being said. But let's be honest, anything we say to ourselves or others that has a negative impact can be some sort of abuse. Many times we verbally abuse ourselves or our spouse without even realizing it. What we say to ourselves and others can have catastrophic consequences to both the abuser, and the abusee. Even if you feel like you don't deal with verbal abuse in anyway, this is an episode you will still want to listen to. Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!
