Live Your Why

As parents, we need to get comfortable with uncomfortable conversations. If we start talking with our children when they are young about sexuality and their amazing bodies, it will be more comfortable for everyone. Dina Alexander is a gem! Her wealth of knowledge and ability to assist parents in teaching about sensitive topics is unmatched. Her business, Educate and Empower Kids, @eduempowerkids has well researched books, along with parenting advice for topics from sexuality (at each stage of childhood) to digital-age strategies. I appreciate her book’s conversational approach which gives clarity to what types questions and answers are most helpful. If you’re not familiar with Dina Alexander, now you know! Visit her website or Instagram shop to see the wonderful parenting resources, all right at your fingertips. 

Listen today as I visit with Ashlee Sorensen @heyashleenoel. Ashlee is a personal coach specializing in hormones, and we talk about maturely discussing menstruation, pms, and moods in marriage.

When I have a student or client really ready to quit porn I send them to an amazing coach, Sara Brewer @sarabrewercoaching . Sara's approach to overcoming porn for good works! Today we talk about how learning to overcome urges can bless your life. Sara also hosts the Overcoming Pornography for good podcast which is an excellent source of information for individuals, couples, and families. Her approach is all about anti-shame while being sex-positive, a healthy combination for life.

Today’s podcast is with a woman I greatly admire, Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife. We are discussing Male Sexual Shame, which is a common situation for many very good men. Do men feel shame because they are the high-desire partner or because they feel they have to act like the high desire partner?Do men feel less faithful and righteous because they seek for sexual acceptance?Would men experience less sexual anxiety if women would collaborate in creating a dynamic sexual relationship?These are a few of the questions that we discuss in today’s episode of the Live Your Why podcast. 

In this episode, I discuss important conversations to have with your partner before getting married with Dr. Jason Whiting. Dr. Whiting is a fellow therapist and I love his direct approach to having vulnerable conversations.

In this episode, I talk with Tamara Johnson about her experience with dating! Tamara decided when she was 31, she decided she wanted to date 31 different people for 31 days. Listen to hear about her experience and what she learned. 

It can become easy to feel that monogamy is also monotony. So many of us get into a relationship that becomes routine and monotonous. What was once perhaps a great sex-life just seems to dissipate with time.  I want to help you stop having "leftover sex". I want you to look at each other with energy, desire, and a commitment to invest in your sexual stewardship. Today I talk with Dan Purcell, host of the Get Your Marriage On podcast about sexual playfulness in marriage and spicing things up with your spouse.

The essential need for both a mother and a father to provide genetic material for survival parallels what social science tells us about the importance of mothers and fathers in children’s development. Fathers and mothers bring similar, even indistinguishable, capacities that enable healthy child development. But like the complementarity of the left and right halves of the brain, they also bring distinct capacities that provide complementary, irreplaceable contributions to children’s healthy development.

If your relationship dynamic happens to be one where sometimes you feel more like roommates than lovers, then this particular episode might be helpful for you! I talk with Kyle and Alanna from Kingdom sexuality. They are both Christians who have a real desire to help people to help couples claim the joy that can be found within the sexual component of marriage.
