Habit 86: Let's Talk About Sex(ual Health) with Dr. Susie Gronski

Send us a text

Sexual health is full of misconceptions to debunk—it’s about connection, pleasure, and building self-confidence. In today's habit, I get to chat with Dr. Susie Gronski, a pelvic health expert, to bust the most common myths about sexual health. We tackle everything from the importance of communication to redefining what sex really means, how to navigate the curve balls that autoimmunity can bring, and why making intimacy a habit is not unsexy—it’s actually a game-changer. If you’ve ever had questions about sexual health but didn’t know who to ask, this conversation is for you.

Key Takeaways:

• Sexual health is about more than what meets the eye—it includes emotional health, connection, and feeling self-confident.
• There is no “normal” when it comes to sex—everyone’s experience is unique.
• Communication is essential to a fulfilling sexual relationship and should never be considered a turn-off.
• Mismatched sexual desires between partners are common and do not mean something is wrong—understanding and communication can bridge the gap.
• Scheduling intimacy can actually enhance your relationship and using plays from the abc Habit Playbook is a sure fire way to make it a habit.
• Medications, stress, and medical conditions can impact sexual health, but there are professionals who can help navigate solutions.
• Sex is not a pass/fail experience—it should be enjoyable, pleasurable, and free from any and all “shoulds” that tend to creep in.

DO of the DAY:
