    518. Are You Drifting Apart? How to Get C.L.O.S.E.R. Emotionally and Sexually!

    Imagine you and your spouse are floating in the ocean, each in your own raft. At first, you're right next to each other, close enough to talk, laugh, and reach out to one another. But slowly, without even realizing it, the currents begin pulling you apart. At first, the distance seems small and harmless. But the longer you drift, the farther apart you become. Eventually, you look up and realize your spouse is so far away that getting back together will take some serious effort. This is exactly what happens in so many marriages! Couples don't usually wake up one morning completely disconnected. It happens slowly. Life gets busy, conversations become surface level, affection fades, sexual intimacy becomes less frequent, and before you know it, you're living more like roommates than lovers. And here's the scary part: The farther you drift apart, the harder it becomes to paddle back together! In this powerful episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick and Amy share the analogy of two rafts drifting apart in the ocean and explain how it relates to emotional connection, sexual intimacy, and the little things couples stop doing that once kept their marriage strong. We discuss the warning signs that you're drifting apart, why emotional and sexual disconnection often go hand in hand, and most importantly, what you can do TODAY to start paddling back toward each other. The good news? It's never too late to start reconnecting, rebuilding intimacy, and reigniting the spark! Don't wait until your spouse feels miles away to start fighting for your marriage. Listen to this episode and discover how to stop the drift, close the distance, and fall in love with your spouse all over again!

    517. Part 2 - The Emotional And Sexual Needs Of Husbands That Wive's Often Dismiss Or Overlook With Austin

    We're back with Part 2 of one of the most important conversations about marriage, intimacy, and the emotional needs of husbands! In Part 1, we explored why so many husbands feel emotionally overlooked, why sexual intimacy is often much more than just a physical experience for men, and why feeling desired, appreciated, and wanted matters so much in marriage. But there is so much more to this conversation! In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick continues the discussion with licensed marriage and family therapist Austin Ellis as they dive even deeper into the emotional and sexual struggles husbands often experience but rarely talk about. They explore the impact of repeated rejection, why husbands need emotional safety too, how a lack of appreciation and affection can slowly create distance in marriage, and whether we've created double standards when it comes to meeting each other's needs. Most importantly, they share practical ways couples can better communicate, reconnect, and create a marriage where BOTH spouses feel loved, respected, desired, and fulfilled. If you haven't listened to Part 1, we encourage you to start there! And whether you're a husband who has struggled to express his needs or a wife who wants to better understand her husband, this episode will help you see intimacy and connection from a different perspective. Because a great marriage isn't about whose needs matter more. It's about two spouses who genuinely care about meeting each other's emotional and sexual needs.

    516. Does Your Spouse Feel the Same Way You Do About Your Marriage Intimacy? The Marriage Assessment That Could Change Everything!

    What if you think your marriage is doing great in certain areas, but your spouse feels completely differently? You might be surprised by what you discover! One evening while we were out on a date, I asked Amy a simple question: "On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate this part of our marriage?" Her answer completely surprised me! I honestly thought we were doing really well in that area of our marriage, but Amy saw things differently. What started as one simple question turned into an incredible conversation that helped me better understand how she was really feeling and what we could do to make our marriage even better. And it made us realize something important: Just because YOU think something is going great in your marriage doesn't mean your spouse feels the same way! In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick and Amy share why every married couple should regularly check in with each other and have honest conversations about the different areas of their marriage, including emotional intimacy, sexual intimacy, communication, quality time, affection, and more! We discuss how asking your spouse to rate different aspects of your marriage can open the door to conversations you might never have otherwise.  Because you can't improve something if you don't even realize your spouse is struggling with it! You might discover that something you thought was a 9 or 10 is actually a 5 or 6 for your spouse. And while that might be surprising, it can also be an incredible opportunity to grow closer, understand each other better, and strengthen your marriage. So here's our challenge: Are you brave enough to ask your spouse how they REALLY feel about your marriage? You might be surprised by their answers, and those answers could lead to some of the most important conversations you've had in years! Don't miss this episode! It might completely change the way you look at your marriage. Even better? We provide you with a printable to start rating those areas of your marriage and having those conversations!

    515. The Emotional And Sexual Needs Of Husbands That Wive's Often Dismiss Or Overlook - Part 1 With Austin

    We hear a lot (and talk a lot) about what wives need to feel emotionally safe, loved, appreciated, and sexually connected in marriage. But what about husbands? What about the husband who works hard, loves his family, and tries to be a great spouse, yet quietly feels lonely, unappreciated, rejected, or unwanted? Are we overlooking the emotional and sexual needs of men in marriage? In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick sits down with licensed marriage and family therapist Austin Ellis for an honest and eye opening conversation about what husbands really need from their wives, and why those needs are often misunderstood or dismissed.  They dive into why sexual intimacy is deeply emotional for many men, why husbands want to feel desired rather than just accommodated, how repeated rejection can affect a husband's confidence and connection, and why emotional safety, affection, appreciation, and respect matter just as much to husbands as they do to wives. This episode isn't about blaming wives or suggesting one spouse's needs matter more than the other's. It's about helping couples better understand each other, communicate their needs, and build a marriage where BOTH spouses feel loved, wanted, appreciated, and sexually fulfilled. Whether you're a husband who struggles to express what you need or a wife who wants to better understand her husband, this is an episode you won't want to miss!

    514. Do We Put Too Much Emphasis On Sexual Intimacy In Marriage? - Reading A Listeners Email

    Is sexual intimacy really as important in marriage as we make it out to be? Or have we put so much emphasis on sex that we've lost sight of what marriage is really about? In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick and Amy read a thought-provoking email from a listener who challenges the importance we place on sexual intimacy in marriage. It raises some interesting questions that we believe many couples have probably wondered about but rarely discuss. Should sex be such a big priority in marriage?  Can a marriage be happy and fulfilling without much sexual intimacy?  And at what point does emphasizing sex actually create more pressure, frustration, and resentment between spouses? We dive into both sides of this conversation and discuss why sexual intimacy matters, why emotional connection is just as important, and how couples can find a healthy balance without making either spouse feel pressured, neglected, or unimportant. Because at the end of the day, marriage is about so much more than sex. But does that mean sexual intimacy should take a back seat? Join us for an honest, thought-provoking conversation that might just challenge the way you look at intimacy in your own marriage!

    513. If You Struggle With These Things, Your Marriage Needs This - With Austin

    What if you could take one trip together and come home feeling closer, more connected, more passionate, and more in love than you have in years? When couples write to us asking for help, almost every message comes back to the same two things: “We need to communicate better” and “We need more intimacy and connection in our relationship.” So we decided to create an experience completely centered around BOTH.  In this episode, Nick and Amy sit down with marriage and intimacy therapist Austin Ellis, LMFT, to give you an inside look at what couples will experience on the 2027 Ultimate Intimacy & Adventure Cruise and why this is definitely NOT your typical couples getaway. Imagine six nights away from the kids, work, schedules, laundry, dishes, and everything else competing for your attention. You’re cruising to Mexico, going on adventures, having date nights, relaxing together, AND spending intentional time in over 10 hours of instruction with Austin, learning how to create the marriage you actually want to come home to, and then leaving with the tools to be able to do so. We’re talking about the conversations most couples avoid. Communication. Sex. Desire differences. Rejection. Emotional connection. Feeling wanted. Feeling understood. And how to bring the FUN and PASSION back into your marriage. And instead of listening to a podcast and thinking, “We really need to work on that someday,” you’ll actually have the time, tools, and guidance to work on it TOGETHER. Because vacations eventually end. But what if you came home with something that didn’t? Better communication. Deeper intimacy. More understanding. More connection. More passion. And an entirely new vision for your marriage. Space will be limited for this amazing experience.  So if you’ve been thinking, “We need something like this,” don’t wait until you see everyone else heading to Mexico without you.  Sign up for the cruise HERE 🔥 Haven’t checked out the Ultimate Intimacy App yet?

    512. Why The Devil Does Everything He Can To Get You In The Bedroom Before You're Married, And Then Keep You Out Of The Bedroom Once You're Married

    Have you ever stopped to think about how strange this is that before marriage, most couples can't keep their hands off each other. The attraction is intense. The passion is exciting. The desire to be physically intimate can feel almost impossible to resist. They dream about their wedding night, look forward to being together, and can't wait to experience sexual intimacy with the person they love. But then something happens. They get married and the intimacy stops. The very thing they once couldn't wait to experience together suddenly becomes something they struggle to make time for. The passion that once seemed effortless starts to fade. One spouse wants sex more often than the other. Rejection becomes common. Resentment builds. And what was once a source of excitement and anticipation can become one of the biggest sources of frustration in the marriage. Isn't it interesting that the world seems to encourage sex before marriage, yet once couples are married, everything seems to work against them having it? At Ultimate Intimacy, we believe there is a spiritual battle happening in marriages, and sexual intimacy is one of the places where that battle can be especially destructive. In this episode Nick and Amy talk about why this happens, and more importantly, what couples can do about it to experience the intimacy they desire.  Join the cruise registration VIP list HERE 🔥 Haven’t checked out the Ultimate Intimacy App yet?
