Does it feel like you and your partner are on different pages when it comes to intimacy? Whether you’re the one feeling rejected or the one struggling with desire, you’re not alone. Desire disparity is a common challenge in relationships—but it’s rarely talked about openly.

In this episode, I sit down with Tarah & E.J. Kerwin, relationship experts and founders of Relationship Renovation, to dive deep into the real reasons behind mismatched libidos and how couples can bridge the intimacy gap. They share expert advice on fostering emotional connection, navigating desire differences with compassion, and creating intimacy beyond just sex.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated, disconnected, or unsure how to address desire imbalance in your relationship, this episode is for you!

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔️ What is desire disparity? Why couples often struggle with mismatched sex drives.

✔️ How stress, hormones, and life changes impact intimacy—and what you can do about it.

✔️ Why couples avoid talking about sex and intimacy—and how to break the silence.

✔️ Practical strategies for reigniting intimacy—without pressure or resentment.

✔️ Why sex doesn’t define a relationship and how to shift your mindset around intimacy.
