Nobody "Has The Power" In An Unhappy Marriage
Often, men think that the woman "holds the power" if she has a lower sex drive... just like how women think the man "holds the power" if he has a lower desire to be emotionally close. The reality is that nobody is happy or feels powerful in an unhappy marriage, not the anxious partner or the avoidant one! Here's how to rethink this, as well as why it can be transformative to understand that women in no way LIKE rejecting their husbands for sex!

Responsive ROMANCE!
Remember, more women have sex when they don't want to than men are romantic when they don't want to be... because men more are avoidant. So here's what to think about if you think romance should be "organic"... based on what I've already taught you about responsive desire in women!

In this episode, I discuss high vs low libido women over time, and drive over time as well. As usual, join my Facebook group if you want to see where some of these podcast topics originate!

Don't "Try To Be More Interesting" To Make People Interested In You
Many preoccupied attachment people think they need to develop extra hobbies or travel more or make themselves "more interesting" in order to attract people or maintain the interest of their spouse. This is not accurate. Do things you want to do if you want to attract people who value you for you!

Fighting About Loading The Dishwasher? Listen To This
This is a huge waste of the only time you have on this planet. Listen up for what you're really fighting about and how to think about it differently. This went longer as expected as I touched on individual-level, couples-level, and even societal-level reasons for these types of arguments!!
