    Beyond the Sex Talk: Relationship Skills You Forgot to Teach Your Kids ft. Ruby Falk, MA, LPC

    We spend a lot of time teaching kids about sex, boundaries, and dating. But how often do we intentionally teach them how to build a healthy relationship? In this episode, Angela sits down with licensed therapist and relationship coach Ruby Falk to discuss the relationship skills every child should learn long before they enter a romantic relationship. Together they explore what it means to maintain your identity while caring for a partner, why you're not responsible for someone else's emotions, how healthy couples handle conflict, and why emotional safety matters more than perfection. They also discuss the importance of letting kids witness healthy conflict and repair, helping children learn to respond rather than react, and teaching them not only how to say "no," but how to recognize an authentic "yes." Whether you're raising young children, navigating the teen years, or simply reflecting on the relationship lessons you wish you'd learned sooner, this conversation offers practical wisdom for building healthier relationships across generations. In this episode: The difference between selflessness and losing yourself Why you aren't responsible for another person's feelings How healthy couples repair after conflict Why kids need to see parents disagree and reconcile What emotional safety actually looks like Relationship skills that matter far beyond dating To connect with Ruby:WebsiteInstagramTikTok Things referenced in this episode:Ruby's TikTok Post Raising Sexually Healthy Kids PodcastTalking to Your Kids About Sex PodcastSex Education for Tweens & Teens Podcast Let's Talk About Body Boundaries, Consent, & Respect by Jayneen Sanders(aff link) What Feelings Do When No One is Looking by Tina Oziewicz(aff link) The Rabbit Listened by Cori Doerrfeld(aff link) To support me, The Christian Sexpert, make sure you are checking out all of my resources, and of course, a Cash App gift helps me do all these things you love! ⁠⁠ Website⁠⁠⁠Book Coaching with Angela Facebook TikTok Instagram YouTube Podcast Patreon CashApp⁠⁠ $TheChristianSexpert Note: These show notes contain external links to products and services.

    Maybe It's Not Low Libido: ADHD, Executive Function, & Sex ft. Dr. Leann Borneman, PhD, LCSW, CST

    If you've ever wanted sex in theory but couldn't seem to get yourself interested in the moment, this episode may explain why. For years, conversations about desire have focused on libido, hormones, and responsive desire. But what if the problem isn't a lack of desire at all? What if the real issue is executive functioning? In this episode, I sit down with clinical sexologist, AASECT-certified sex therapist, and ADHD sexuality researcher Dr. Leann Borneman to explore the often-overlooked connection between ADHD and sexual intimacy. Together we discuss: • Why ADHD is frequently mistaken for low libido• The role executive functioning plays in desire and sexual initiation• Task switching, mental load, and why getting started can feel impossible• Rejection sensitivity and its impact on intimacy• Attention, arousal, and why orgasm can be more difficult for ADHD brains• Sensory seeking, sensory sensitivities, and changing preferences from one day to the next• How neurotypical relationship expectations create shame in ADHD partnerships Whether you have ADHD yourself, suspect you might, or love someone who does, this conversation offers practical insights that can help couples stop blaming each other and start understanding what's actually happening beneath the surface. Because sometimes what looks like a desire problem is really a brain wiring problem. I must add a disclaimer to this episode: I did the MOST ADHD thing I could have done with this episode (short of forgetting to record it): I forgot to plug in my mic. I've done all I could, but the audio is less than what I hoped it would be. I apologize for the inconsistency, and promise to do better moving forward!

    When Anxiety Goes to Bed with You: Why You Can't Relax Enough for Sex ft. Dr. Karianne Bilsky

    Anxiety doesn't stay in your head—it follows you into your relationships, your marriage, and yes, your bedroom. In this episode, I sit down with licensed psychologist Dr. Karianne Bilsky to talk about the often-overlooked connection between anxiety and intimacy. Together, we unpack how anxiety affects desire, arousal, connection, and your ability to be present during sex. We discuss why "just relax" isn't helpful advice, and what happens when your nervous system is constantly operating on high alert. If you've ever found yourself overthinking during intimacy, feeling touched out, struggling to relax, or wondering why sex feels more stressful than enjoyable, this conversation is for you. You'll learn:• How anxiety affects desire and arousal• Why anxious brains struggle with intimacy• The role your nervous system plays in sexual connection• Practical ways couples can create more safety and connection The number one section you don't want to miss? When Dr. Karianne explains why even if you don't have an anxiety diagnosis, you can't switch into sexy mode as a touched-out mom. (She blew even my mind with this one!) Sometimes the problem isn't your marriage—and it isn't your sex life. Sometimes it's anxiety. Disclaimer: Nothing in this episode should be considered medical advice.

    Why Depression Changes Your Sex Life ft. Dr. Karianne Bilsky, PhD

    Disclaimer: Nothing in this episode is intended to be medical advice. Please take any information your learn in this episode to a discussion with your own personal doctor. Trigger warnings for discussion of depression and suicide.  Depression doesn’t just impact your mood.It impacts your body, your nervous system, your relationships, your energy, your intimacy, and sometimes even your ability to recognize yourself. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Karianne Bilsky, PhD for an honest conversation about depression, mental health, and the things Christians are often told that make struggling people feel even more isolated. Because “just pray more” is not a treatment plan.And pretending you’re fine doesn’t magically make you healthy. We talk about: What depression can actually feel like in real life How depression impacts marriage, connection, and intimacy If "pushing through" sex is a good strategy Medication stigma in Christian spaces What support actually looks like Why struggling mentally does not make you weak, broken, or a “bad Christian” We also unpack the pressure many people feel to perform wellness while privately drowning—and why curiosity, support, and honesty matter so much more than toxic positivity. If you’ve ever wondered why you can love God, love your spouse, and still feel exhausted, numb, disconnected, or hopeless… this conversation is for you. And if you love someone battling depression, this episode may help you understand them with more compassion and less judgment.

    The Stories Women Learn to Outgrow ft. Dr. Ashley Odom-Rodrigues

    What happens to women’s sexuality as they age? Because contrary to what culture — and honestly, a lot of the church — would have us believe, women do not magically stop being sexual beings after 60. In this episode, I’m joined again by Ashley Odom Rodrigues to talk about her dissertation research interviewing women over the age of 60 about their sex lives, relationships, bodies, identity, and aging. We talk about the messages women inherit from their mothers, the pressure many women carried throughout marriage, how bodies and desire shift over time, and the surprising freedom many women discovered later in life. Spoiler: aging doesn’t erase sexuality. For many women, it actually creates space for honesty, confidence, and deeper connection. If you’ve ever feared aging would mean the end of intimacy, or if you’ve struggled with how purity culture shaped the way you view women’s bodies and sexuality, this episode is going to challenge a lot of assumptions. You’ve been warned.

    Postpartum Changes Everything ft. Danielle Bruner

    What happens to intimacy after birth when everyone is exhausted, touched out, overwhelmed, and trying to survive on broken sleep and cold coffee? In this episode, I’m joined by postpartum doula and educator Danielle Bruner for a conversation that every married couple needs to hear before the baby arrives — not after the damage is already done. We talk about why so many couples feel disconnected during this season, and how emotional safety and practical support directly impact intimacy inside a marriage. Danielle shares what moms actually need after birth, why “bouncing back” culture is failing women, and how partners can become a source of stability instead of resentment. We also unpack: why postpartum recovery is about more than physical healing the mental load mothers carry that often goes unseen how non-sexual intimacy lays the foundation for sexual intimacy later what dads and partners often misunderstand about postpartum how couples can stay connected without pressure or performance If you’ve ever wondered why sex can feel complicated after kids, this episode gets to the root of it with honesty, compassion, and practical wisdom. Because spoiler: healthy intimacy doesn’t grow in exhaustion, overwhelm, and isolation. It grows where people feel cared for, safe, supported, and seen.

    Why You Feel Like a Different Woman Every Week (And What to Do About It) ft. Lauren Hall

    Most women were never actually taught how their bodies work—we were just told to deal with them. Push through the exhaustion. Ignore the mood swings. Feel confused when your desire changes. And maybe blame yourself when your body doesn’t respond the same way every day. But what if nothing is wrong with you? In this episode, I’m joined by traditional midwife Lauren Hall to break down the four phases of a woman’s cycle—and how they mirror the seasons: winter, spring, summer, and fall. We talk about what’s actually happening in your body during each phase, how your energy and emotions shift, what to lean into, what to avoid, and how understanding your rhythm can completely change the way you experience your body. And yes—we go there. We talk about how your cycle impacts your desire, your connection, and your marriage… because you’re not meant to feel the same every day. If you’ve ever felt inconsistent, disconnected, or frustrated with your body, this episode is going to make things make sense in a whole new way. You’re not broken. You’re cyclical. And once you understand that? Everything changes. Lauren is a traditional midwife, trained through an apprenticeship model, Indie Birth Midwifery School and a great deal of self-directed learning. She serves her local community in Central Arkansas, as well as women around the country as a midwife and holds hopes and dreams of international travel for missionary midwifery. She is a mother to 8 children, including a set of twins, and has experienced a great variety of birth stories with them. She is the founder Rooted in Eden, cofaciliator of Holy Wild Birth Podcast and Hearthmother Journey, and the primary facilitator of Hearthmother Midwifery Unschool.

    Jesus Was Never in Purity Culture ft Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers

    If purity culture was supposed to lead to healthy, fulfilling sex in marriage… why are so many couples still struggling? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers to unpack the real impact of purity culture—where it came from, how it spread far beyond the Church, and why so many of us are still carrying its messages into our marriages today. We talk about:• How purity culture moved from evangelical spaces into mainstream culture• The ways it shaped both women and men (yes, men too)• Why so many people still feel shame around sex—even after marriage• And the uncomfortable but necessary truth: Jesus was never at the center of purity culture If you’ve ever felt like sex was something to avoid, control, or feel guilty about—even with your spouse—this conversation is going to challenge what you were taught and open the door to something healthier. Because sex was never meant to be driven by fear and shame. And healing is possible. ✨✨✨✨ Connect with Dr. Tina:InstagramFacebookWebsite Resources referenced in this episode:Dr. Tina's podcast with Dr. Cami Hurst Sex, God, & The Conservative Church(aff link) Shameless Parenting: Everything You Need to Raise Shame-Free, Confident Kids, and Heal Your Shame Too!(aff link) To support me, The Christian Sexpert, make sure you are checking out all of my resources, and of course, a Cash App gift helps me do all these things you love! ⁠⁠ Website⁠⁠⁠Book Coaching with Angela Facebook TikTok Instagram YouTube Podcast Patreon CashApp⁠⁠ $TheChristianSexpert Note: These show notes contain external links to products and services.
