75. Combating Low Sex Desire After Having Children with Thea Jansky

Having the open conversation about sex and low libido can be really difficult. It’s a very personal, deep topic that many go through and don’t have a resource or an outlet to express their struggles or feel comfortable talking about it. As a mother and a wife, being intimate can be low on your list of priorities. Your sex drive with your partner may be low, or not as it use to be in the beginning of your relationship. If you are feeling this way, please know that it is extremely common among women. This episode is all about those topics as well as learning the whys, hows and what to do to change things up with your partner. Thea Jansky holds her Masters of Arts Degree in Integrative Health & Healing and was trained as a Sex & Relationship Coach out in Berkeley, CA. She is Certified in Codependency Recovery and trained in Conflict Management, Resolution, Mediation, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Complex Trauma & the Nervous System. She lives in Connecticut with her husband and two daughters. In this episode we discuss: Why women struggle with low sexual desire, especially after having children. Why men love to feel needed in relationships. How to get back to the women you were prior to having children. Needing the space to miss each other. Finding intimacy in other ways to feel connected with your spouse.
