In order to feel turned on, we first have to feel safe. And that\u2019s the funny thing about trust: once it\u2019s broken, it has a way of quietly shutting us down, so that our relationships aren\u2019t as deep, our curiosity is blocked, and even our self-sex takes a hit. But there IS hope: trust can be healed. Neuroplasticity is a beautiful thing, and if we compassionately work on ourselves (possibly with a partner), we feel worlds better - more secure, and definitely more sexy.\nSo on today\u2019s Ask Emily show, I take some of my favorite calls on trust, and how to repair it. What happens if your spouse cheated on you, to the point where sex feels sorta gross now? Or how about if you were the cheater, and your sex life just isn\u2019t the same? (Two words: couples therapy.) How about this one: you\u2019re in a partnership, and things are basically fine - but the spark has completely worn off, and you don\u2019t know how to talk about it? Or, what if you tell a new partner you love them, they don\u2019t reciprocate, and THEN the sex takes a nosedive? In both cases, I\u2019ve got answers. Finally, when you\u2019re \u201ctoo picky\u201d of a dater, is it really because they\u2019re all duds? Or, are there some underlying trust issues there, that are keeping your sexuality safe, cool, and totally dormant? The bottom line is this: when we feel free, we feel sexy. And on today\u2019s episode, we\u2019re helping you radically reclaim your erotic freedom.\nShow Notes:\n\n\nIan Kerner\u2019s book - So Tell Me About The Last Time You Had Sex.\xa0\n\nOur Yes No Maybe List\n\n Hosted on Acast.
