In my coaching practice, I often talk about creating intentional containers for connection. But recently, my husband Darren and I decided to take things a step further. We were approached to share a raw, unfiltered look into our intimate life, so we set ourselves a challenge: could we have sex every single day for seven days straight? Usually, as busy parents juggling work, yoga classes, and family life, we have sex about three times a week.

Moving in with a partner is an incredibly exciting milestone. You’re picking out furniture, envisioning cozy nights in, and planning your future under one roof. But here is a sobering statistic: more than half of people in the UK say they’ve almost broken up, or actually did break up, after moving in together.

Your body isn't broken; it’s just protective. If you are living with vaginismus or healing from trauma, the pressure to perform can feel like a massive wall. Here is a 5-step roadmap to de-throne the orgasm, lower your anxiety, and rebuild safety and connection with your partner.
