In part two of Janna's conversation with Ryan, he opens up about his decision to wait until marriage to have sex—a choice rooted in a desire to escape the guilt he'd carried for most of his life. While the experience was fine at first, their intimacy gradually faded. Over time, Ryan began to feel isolated and deeply unloved. Determined to fix their relationship, he turned to podcasts and books for advice. But as his frustration grew, he found himself blaming his wife for not putting in the same level of effort.Ironically, it was his wife who discovered the Doing It Together course and suggested they try it. Ryan admits that much of the content wasn't entirely new to him. What was new, however, was seeing that information through the lens of intimacy within marriage. It shifted his entire perspective. Instead of focusing on what he saw as her "problem," Ryan began to reflect on his own role in their dynamic. The course helped him realize the powerful impact of making changes on his side—both emotionally and physically—which began to transform their connection, in and out of the bedroom.The next round of Doing It Together is open for registration!

Kate and her husband started out having what she describes as a great sex life. It felt exciting, easy and fun and her pleasure was easily accessible. As the years passed and life got more stressful and overwhelming, her desire plummeted. She couldn't understand what happened. She started keeping a calendar to track how often they had sex and if too much time went by she would shame herself into doing it. Even though sex felt fine in the moment, she had no desire and felt broken and very alone.Desperate for help, she searched for ‘low libido' in her podcast browser and discovered Janna's podcast. She listened to the first episode on the way to the grocery store and exclaimed, “That's me, that's me, that's me!” Hearing her story for the first time prompted her to listen and learn further, and finally take the program with her husband. Listen as Kate describes what was really going on, what she and her husband learned, and how their communication and sexual relationship has dramatically improved.

A lot of the changes that happen during midlife and menopause are widely discussed online and on social media - weight struggles, bone density issues, nutritional needs, hot flashes, belly fat, and hormonal shifts to name a few. But what about the challenges nobody talks about? Many women in midlife begin dealing with a bunch of “somewhat embarrassing” issues that can make them feel like their body is just not working properly anymore. Urinary tract infections, prolapse, low libido and other challenges with intimacy, can be really discouraging and impact quality of life. And they just aren't talked about, so how do you know what to do? That's where Dr. Kelly Casperson comes in! She's a urologic surgeon and the author “You Are Not Broken”, as well as the host of the podcast by the same name. In this conversation, we'll discuss: the pervasive feeling of 'brokenness' women often feel regarding their sexual and pelvic health the impact of societal norms on women's sexuality the significance of pelvic health in midlife the role of hormones in women's health and the often-overlooked condition of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM). If you're needing encouragement to seek help and advocate for your pelvic health, this is it!

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rachel Zar, a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified sex therapist, to talk about why specialized training in sexual therapy is so important. Too many therapists aren't equipped to handle conversations around sexual health, and that can leave people feeling misunderstood and ashamed. Dr. Zar and I dive into the challenges that come up when addressing sexual issues, especially painful sex among those assigned female at birth. We also discuss how vital it is to educate ourselves and our partners on things like foreplay, core play, and being truly connected with our bodies. This episode is all about breaking the silence, reclaiming our sexual well-being, and moving toward healthier, more fulfilling relationships.Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction to Sexual Desire Discrepancy(00:17) - Welcome to the Taboo to Truth Podcast(01:04) - Meet Dr. Rachel Zar(02:05) - What Does a Sex Therapist Do?(03:17) - Understanding Sexual Therapy Training(05:14) - Common Issues in Sex Therapy(10:30) - Navigating Painful Sex and Low Libido(15:01) - The Importance of Education and Awareness(22:37) - Understanding Foreplay vs Core Play(30:52) - The Role of Exercise in Enhancing Sex(31:36) - Kink Affirmative Therapy Explained(40:43) - The Definition of Sex and Its Spectrum(41:18) - Conclusion and Resources for ListenersKaren Bigman, a Sexual Health Alliance Certified Sex Educator, Life, and Menopause Coach, tackles the often-taboo subject of sexuality with a straightforward and candid approach.

After years of thinking that low energy, low libido, joint pain, and lackluster performance in the gym were just a part of the natural aging process, Adam didn't realize that his hormone health was suboptimal and sabotaging his health and happiness.  His personal experience offers a unique point of view to holistic health and mindset that we are going to unpack in today's show.  Through his work with Blokes Men's Health and Joi Women's Wellness, Adam is at the forefront of empowering individuals to take control of their health journey. He is passionate about helping others to understand the importance of hormone health and how it can impact every aspect of their lives. From energy levels to mood and performance, optimizing hormone balance can lead to profound transformations in overall well-being.   Here are some of the thing we talked about in today's podcast:    Hormonal health is crucial for energy levels, mood, and overall well-being. Functional medicine takes a more comprehensive approach to hormone testing and treatment compared to traditional medicine. Nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle factors play a significant role in maintaining hormonal balance. Peptides like BPC 157 can be effective for joint pain and recovery. Peptide therapy can be an effective tool for joint recovery and repair, especially when combined with nutrition, cold exposure, contrast therapy, and sleep. Education and awareness are key in understanding the benefits of peptide therapy and overcoming the stigma associated with low testosterone in men. Understanding one's own body through diagnostic lab reports is essential for identifying deficiencies and taking targeted steps to improve hormonal health. Improving hormonal health can have a significant positive impact on energy levels, libido, and overall well-being, allowing individuals to show up as their best selves in relationships and other areas of life.   Today's podcast is sponsored by my BKF Online Group Coaching Program  https://briankeanefitness.com/bkf-online     (Instagram) https://www.instagram.com/admandew/   (Facebook) https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553118971640   (Associated websites) https://blokes.co/   https://choosejoi.co/ (Twitter/X) https://x.com/admandew   (Social media post on Hormone health-@getblokes) https://www.instagram.com/admandew/reel/C3OTUktuEgO/   (Social media post on Hormone levels) https://www.instagram.com/admandew/reel/Cz4jjxVuqQh/  

In this episode, Hannah is putting words to some things that can be hard for low libido partners to describe.

Hey friend, Happy National Sex Day!!! Did you celebrate it? In case the date completely slipped your mind (blame it on perimenopause brain fog)...Or, like me, you never knew the day existed (and to be honest, do we really need the extra pressure of a NATIONAL sex day???....) National Sex Day was observed on June 9th to commemorate the importance of sexual intimacy in relationships. But for couples struggling with low libido, mismatched sex drives, or sexual anxiety, this day can bring a lot of undue stress.  On today's episode, I'm joined by my husband, Rick, as we continue our special “Love & Hormones” Spring Series.

Send us a Text Message.Hi friends! Today I am diving into one of the topics that has been a long time coming... Libido! There is somewhat of an epidemic (my words) of low libido in women and this should be more concerning than it is. Low libido is not "normal" and it actually is comes out of running low in other areas of your life.The environment around us, birth control (impacting thyroid function + gut issues), and emotional factors are all culprits that can cause low libido and I break it all down in this episode. If you are a woman or a mom that is in a season of high stress, overwhelm, lack of capacity and/or exhaustion - there is no way your libido is going to be high! It's time to take a step back and find ways to fill your cup.  Listen in to know why that's actually important. In this episode:[04:02] What is libido?[07:20] Environmental factors for low libido[11:21] Emotional factors for low libido[15: 55] Polarity and leaning into your femininity[19:52] My favorite way to increase libido quickly [21:55] A challenge to look inwardOther Episodes You Might LikeEpisode 14: What I wish I Knew Before & After Birth ControlEpisode 16: Birth Control Recovery - How to Nourish & Rebalance your Hormones after Birth Control (Part 2)Episode 66: How I Support My Hormones in Follicular WeekLET ME HELP YOU FIX THOSE HORMONES:FREE RESOURCESLove Your Liver GuideHormone Imbalance QUIZCOURSE + COACHING (When you're ready to fix your hormones without the drama of figuring it out on your own)Nourish Your Hormones Course1:1 Hormone Coaching - 4 June/July spots left!PRIVATE PODCAST MINI-COURSELeave a 5 star rating on the podcast and DM me the word RATING on IG @leishadrews for $20 off the Restored mini-course on blood sugar balance.
