176. The Pleasure Principle: Dr. Alexandra on Cultivating Passion and Wholeness in Relationships with Tilly Storm

5/1/2024
In this episode of the Intimate Marriage podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD and Tilly Storm, focus on the pleasure principle as they explore ways to foster passionate relationships and venture into new dimensions of erotic intimacy. Tilly has extensive expertise in women’s sexuality and guides couples to renew the spark and access more pleasure in their intimate lives. The two of them discuss "wholeness" as an essential ingredient for pleasure, ways to foster pleasure-positive attitudes in children, and marital challenges such as sexual incompatibility and how to talk about it. Also in this episode: Normalizing the conversation around pleasure with children contributes to a healthier understanding of sexuality as they mature. Couples often experience a "turn on mismatch," which should be navigated by learning and understanding one another’s erotic blueprints. Guided sex experiences are a safe, exploratory space for couples to reignite their sexual connection and learn new ways to engage with each other. About Tilly Storm: When not at home in Hollywood, FL, Tilly loves traveling the world with her 2 teenage boys for the next hot surf spot, and going on personal growth and development retreats with her life partner, Chris. Tilly's been studying women’s bodies and sexuality for over 20 years, first as a pre-med biochemistry major and aspiring OB/GYN, then as a doula and midwife apprentice, and now as a somatic sex coach since 2017. After 350,000+ downloads on her podcast - The Multiorgasmic Millionaire, being voted one of the top 20 sex coaches in the world, and working with hundreds of paying clients, she's learned a lot about what it takes to help high-achieving women integrate things like lack of desire, shame, guilt, fear, and numbness and help them feel amazing in their body and sexuality.

173. Unlocking Passion: How Confidence Shapes Success in Love and Life - Expert Advice from Dr Alexandra Stockwell

4/10/2024
In this episode of the Intimate Marriage podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD dives into confidence and how it shapes success in love and life. She sheds light on the crucial role of self-confidence and how attractive it is within intimate relationships, and more specifically, how it plays out among ambitious, educated couples. Dr Alexandra explores the common scenario where one partner craves more from their relationship while the other seems content with the status quo. She provides guidance on how to reignite passion and cultivate a deeper sense of self-worth, emphasizing the magnetic power of confidence as one of the ultimate keys to a more fulfilling and vibrant partnership. Also in this episode: Confidence is the most attractive quality in a partner and a fundamental ingredient for a passionate and thriving marriage. Seeking affirmation and validation from a partner creates an unhealthy parent-child dynamic, which is detrimental for erotic connection. The best course of action for someone feeling needy or rejected is to focus on developing their own sense of value and self-worth. Bringing one's confident, successful self (with authenticity, not bravado) from your professional life into your personal relationship is a pivot that will result in a significant improvement in intimacy.

168. Unlocking Deeper Connection: The Power of Small Gestures in Marriage

3/6/2024
In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD dives into the profound impact that small, thoughtful gestures can have on creating a deeper connection in marriage. She emphasizes that such acts don’t have to be expensive or time-consuming, as the smallest deeds are sometimes the most significant in nurturing a deep connection between partners. Put differently, small gestures are the seeds which grow into emotional, sensual, and erotic intimacy blossoms. Dr. Alexandra brings up the concept that 'Small is Beautiful,' explaining how minor, deliberate actions—like turning on an outside light or sending an estimated time of arrival—can express profound love and care in a relationship. She provides practical advice on how couples can integrate these minor but mighty acts of love into their daily routine to enhance closeness and connection. Also in this episode: Small, easy gestures in daily life have a huge impact on the emotional and intimate connection in a marriage. Consistency in these acts is key, not the complexity or grandeur of the gesture. Romantic gestures don't need to be spontaneous; they can be planned and scheduled by the giver while still allowing for a feeling of spontaneity and surprise for the one receiving them. The 'no pain, no gain' philosophy does not apply when cultivating relationships; well chosen, simple acts, which require minimal effort, can yield significant results.

165. From Sex Ed to Sensual Mastery: Unleashing Your Artistry in the Bedroom

2/14/2024
In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD, delves into the shortcomings of traditional sex education and proposes a new paradigm for learning about sexual intimacy. She discusses the importance of emotional intimacy, experimentation, and releasing preconceived notions about sexuality to craft an artful, gratifying sexual experience. The episode also highlights the crucial role parents have in ensuring their children receive an education that encompasses pleasure, consent, and respect within sexual encounters. Also in this episode: Knowing one's anatomy is fundamental, but exploring the feelings and experiences surrounding the act of sex is what truly enriches intimacy. Parents should be proactive in educating their children about the deeper aspects of sex, tailoring the conversation to their family culture and values. While traditional sex ed is important for scientific accuracy and health awareness, it falls short in areas of pleasure, connection, and passion.

In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD, invites Bob Gardner to share his innovative and intriguing perspective on cultivating passion and aliveness in relationships. Bob shares his transformational journey from enduring years of shame and personal distress to removing the inner shackles and attaining the zenith of inner freedom.

About Bob Gardner: Bob Gardner is the Founder of The Freedom Specialist, a body-based approach to happiness, health, and well-being on auto-pilot. He is also the author of the book Built for Freedom and host of the podcast Alive and Free. After 18 years of being trapped in addictive patterns, and on the brink of both divorce and suicide, something inside Bob told him it was not time to quit just yet. So, against the prevailing wisdom that said these problems are permanent, Bob chose to create a way to permanently eliminate them from his life. His body-based, no-nonsense approach to freedom has since helped thousands of people leave their struggles behind and find real freedom and happiness.

161. Breaking Taboos: Exploring Frequency of Sex in Long-Term Relationships

1/17/2024
In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD, explores a question that frequently murmurs in the back of many couples' minds: "How often should we be having sex? What’s normal?" With an enlightening approach, Alexandra delves into the complexities underneath this question, offering both men and women advice on how to find the answer that best suits their unique relationship, and desires. She encourages listeners to shift their focus from quantity to quality, emphasizing the importance of creating sexual experiences that both partners look forward to. Also in this episode: The "normal" frequency of sex in a marriage is subjective and should be based on mutual satisfaction, not societal expectations. Quality of sexual experiences is far more important than frequency although they are deeply interconnected. Couples with differing sexual desires should work together to create gratifying experiences, seeking external guidance as needed.
