Postpartum intimacy, sex, desire, connection- these areas can feel under nourished amidst the whirlwind of change, evolution, and growth a new baby brings.
In this episode, we dive deep into this often neglected aspect of postpartum life with the incredible Ashley Mariani, a Clinical Social Worker specializing in couples perinatal mental, emotional, and sexual health. Ashley brings her expertise and compassionate understanding to shed light on the common barriers couples may face when it comes to postpartum intimacy and reigniting their sexual identity.
Ashley shares her powerful insights on how to navigate shifting love languages and intimate needs, providing practical tools and strategies to foster deeper connection and intimacy.
We also chat about:
- How the balance of masculine and feminine energy within the dynamic of your relationship plays into intimacy and experiences of sexuality
- The physiological and hormonal blueprint responsible for lower sex drive in early postpartum
Ashley emphasizes the importance of communication, consciously re-evaluating expectations, and taking radical self-responsibility as key factors in rebuilding and deepening postpartum intimacy.
Ashley's compassionate and informative insights will empower you to navigate the complexities of postpartum intimacy, connect with your partner on a deeper level, and reclaim your sexual identity with confidence.
