In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Dr. Alexandra Stockwell and her husband, Dr. Rodd Stockwell, discuss ways men successfully initiate intimacy with their wives. Drawing on their own experience being married for 29 years, they share how their intimacy dynamics have evolved over the years, and what changed for it to become as wonderful as it is now. They also discuss how their communication skills have been refined over time, and why this is important to the quality and frequency of sex.
You’ll learn a lot from this vulnerable episode as Rodd candidly shares his journey, learning how to initiate sex in ways that Alexandra responds to, and his own personal struggles with maintaining intimacy and navigating feelings of rejection, and incompetence
