Have you tried to communicate with each other about sex, but your conversations turn out less than productive or helpful? Maybe you feel reticent to initiate or lead a discussion with your spouse because you don’t know how to begin or how to navigate issues involving sex. Or it may be that you’ve got a pretty good sex life, but you’ve always wondered if things could get even better!



A powerful physical relationship starts with open, honest communication with your spouse but the subject can be tricky to tackle for a myriad of reasons.

Student reviews and experiences are interwoven throughout.
