    155. Why Women Get Annoyed & Don't Want to Have Sex

    155. Why Women Get Annoyed & Don't Want to Have Sex

    Hello, hello! Welcome back for another episode of Owning Your Sexual Self. Kicking off March with this episode, that is inspired by some DM’s that I've been getting recently. Typically it's men that are sliding into the DM’s, wanting free relationship advice, about how to initiate sex without her saying no and getting annoyed. 
    I can't just be giving out free advice all the time. Right? And to be honest, it's not doing you any favors either. There's so much work when it comes to sex coaching, like digging into the layers of this that are really where you're going to see the results. I do free consultation calls, so if you're interested in getting some questions answered or, you know, possibly working together or seeing what programs I have currently um running and whatnot, you can always set up a free consultation call. 
    In this episode you’ll hear…
    How to have good communication around initiating sex, and some questions to ask your partner.Desire Discrepancy; what it is and how to deal with itEmotional vs Physical connection, and how it can play a part in your sex lifeReasons someone might be annoyed with you when you try to initiate sex, and some tips on how to avoid thatStepping into your masculine and how that can change your sex lifeThank you so much for listening. I hope this was helpful. Of course, again, going through why, why she may not want to have sex with you and why she might be getting annoyed with you when you are wanting to have sex. 
    And lastly for any couples that are listening to this, Danny and I are running our Couples Experience virtually on March 14th at 6PM Eastern Time, and is $99 a couple. We just did this workshop in person a few weeks ago and we got amazing, amazing feedback from the people and the couples that joined us. So we are offering it virtually. We're walking you through three of our favorite exercises as couples to be able to connect with each other and connect in a way that intimacy is now present. So if you are listening to this podcast today, you heard me talk a lot about emotional connection and that physical connection. We are teaching you tools for both of those things, the emotional connection and the physical connection, those both show up in these practices that we're gonna be teaching.

    153. Opening Your Relationship with Jennifer Kaylo Ruskin

    153. Opening Your Relationship with Jennifer Kaylo Ruskin

    Hello, hello! Super excited to have Jennifer Ruskin on today to talk about opening relationships!
    Jennifer is a momma, partner, multi-million dollar revenue generator, podcast host, and sex & relationship coach.  The three pillars that she really focuses on are opening a relationship,which can get hella difficult and have a lot of hard conversations, but it is possible. The second thing is online dating because that's freaking tough, but it doesn't have to be. Then the third thing is consciously uncoupling. She has successfully, consciously uncoupled multiple times and has this amazing big family unit of exes and her current partner that help raise her kids, so very untraditional.
    “I just kind of like walked into adulthood like here I am different and fully embracing it.”

    How did Jennifer find herself in an open relationship?
    About a year ago, she had this veil where she was saying to everyone, “ I have the most amazing partner, which I still believe is true, we have a great marriage, and our sex life is fantastic” but that last part was the lie. She was telling herself it was fantastic because she was getting the sex quantity that I was wanting, but it wasn't getting the quality that she was wanting.
    Her sex life was very, very, traditional and she was with a very, very, very traditional person, which is perfect, just not for her. And so what she realized as this veil fell and she finally heard what her friends were saying, like, it's not normal what she was experiencing.
    The real catalyst for this is when old friend came back and slid into her facebook DMs, and sizzling started happening. They started having conversations and she let her husband know this person was back in her life and like there's some flirting happening that may not be fully appropriate.And he was like I don't care, I don't want to know.
    So they started doing like sexy erotic writing back and forth. We had this thing that we had already experienced and so we would like right what's the next level like if we see each other again, what would we do? And so we started this kind of back and forth sexting. So that started her list of things she wants experience. "That feeling of having someone crave you again was really what I desired. And so that started my list."
    A big fear for people is that my husband or my partner would fall in love with this person or love what they're doing more than what I'm doing. How do you get over the feeling or how do you not allow your partner to fall in love?  
    The answer to that is that you can't, the answer to that is that you are only responsible for yourself and your partner is responsible for themselves. The answer to that is we don't own our partners. And when you go through this process of opening, you quickly learn you're not in control of anyone, not even your partner and it's really unhealthy to try to control them anyway. So if you are thinking about heading into the lifestyle, it's really, really, really important to have a good foundation in your relationship already where you have deep love and deep trust and deep respect.

    How do you know if opening up your relationship is for you?
    If you're interested in it, it's for you. If it's a hell no, then it's a hell no.
    If it's a hell no,  you've already shut off the podcast. If you're still listening and it sounds really interesting to you, then it's something to get curious about and started exploring.
