ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Sex is everywhere in our culture, and almost nowhere in our actual conversations in relationships. In this episode, couples therapist Bucky Bateman explores why so many partners never talk openly about sex, where sexual shame comes from, and what that silence is quietly costing your relationship.
If physical intimacy feels easier to avoid than discuss, this episode is for you. Bucky offers honest, practical guidance on how to begin breaking the silence, starting with the stories you inherited and taking small, courageous steps toward actually talking about it with your partner.
Because silence protects shame. But words, spoken honestly and received with grace, open the door to deeper connection.
