S3E16: Carla Crivaro - Stop Chasing Sex and Start Building Intimacy
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, sex and relationship expert Carla Crivaro explains why men can find themselves wanting more sex just as their partners begin withdrawing from intimacy.
The conversation explores sexual disconnection, emotional safety, male shame, performance pressure and the everyday behaviours that can either weaken or rebuild connection.
SHOW NOTES:
- Why a mismatch in sexual desire often reflects a much wider loss of connection
- How mental load and control can create an unhelpful mother-and-son dynamic
- Why presence, honesty and emotional discipline help a woman feel safer
- How chasing orgasm and performance can pull both partners out of intimacy
- How listening, non-sexual touch, check-ins, play and clear boundaries can rebuild closeness
