When Desire Goes Quiet: Love, Hormones & the Truth Between Us

What happens when the fire fades, the touch stops, and no one wants to talk about it?

In this emotionally honest episode, Tee unpacks the quiet unraveling that happens in long-term relationships when intimacy slows down or disappears. From the impact of hormones after age 30 to the emotional distance that grows in silence, this is a grounded and heartfelt look at what desire really needs in order to survive.

This episode explores how physical closeness is often mistaken for emotional connection, why unspoken wounds show up in the bedroom, and how attraction changes when maturity and self-awareness are missing. It also touches on the ways childhood conditioning shapes adult intimacy, and why many people unknowingly turn relationships into reenactments of unmet parental needs.

Whether you’re trying to reconnect, deciding to walk away, or simply searching for deeper understanding, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a spark of remembrance.
