In this empowering and sex-positive episode, Katie sits down with certified sex coach Gwyn Isaacs to tackle some of the biggest intimacy challenges couples face today. They dive deep into:
Why orgasm pressure is killing pleasure for so many women
How clitoral stimulation plays a major role (spoiler: 75-85% of women need it!)
Introducing sex toys without bruising male egos
Overcoming toxic masculinity and performance anxiety in the bedroom
How mental blocks, anxiety, and "the brakes" affect sexual desire (hello, Emily Nagoski’s Come As You Are)
Mindful sex, breathwork, and practical ways to explore new pleasure pathways
How couples can experiment together and make intimacy fun again
This inclusive, no-shame conversation is for anyone looking to reignite their sex life, communicate better with their partner, and create more connected, satisfying intimacy—no matter your gender, relationship status, or sexual orientation.
