Season 3, Ep. 2 - How to Turn Yourself On When You Feel Exhausted

Have you ever finally gotten the baby or kids to sleep, crashed into bed… and then your partner wants to make love? Maybe you also wanted to connect intimately, but you felt overwhelmed, overtouched, tapped out. What do you do? 

That is a very real challenge many mamas face (myself included!). In this episode I share with you exactly what I did the other night to deliberately transition from “mom mode” to “lover mode” in just a few minutes - and the beautiful intimacy that was created with my partner as a result. 

Rekindling your erotic spark - even admist the chaos and intensity of motherhood - is 100% possible for you too. This episode walks you through 5 key practices to get there.
