We're officially in 2026, and in this episode, I’m answering a vulnerable questions I received from a listener. “I read my wife’s journal and found out she only has sex with me because she thinks I need it, not because she wants it. What do I do?”

There’s so much to unpack in a scenario like this—boundaries, honesty, sex, and what you desire for your relationship. I share my thoughts on what it means to read something so personal, how our sex lives and sexuality evolves, and how to move forward with compassion and curiosity instead of shame or withdrawal. This isn’t about blame—it’s about creating deeper intimacy through real conversations.

If you’re struggling with questions around sex in your relationship or how to reconnect with your partner, this conversation will inspire ideas you can take to your own relationship.
