Let’s be honest — intimacy can be challenging. Whether you’re feeling disconnected, anxious, or unsure how to express your needs, you’re far from alone. As a certified sex and relationship coach, I often work with clients navigating these very concerns. The good news? Intimacy issues are both common and completely addressable with the right support.

The unrelenting stress of modern life has left many couples that I speak to (myself included) too exhausted for intimacy. 

And in an era digital distraction, it’s hard to be fully present with our partners when we’re pulled left, right and centre by our devices, and stretched thin. 

A microadventure,according to British adventurer and author Alastair Humphreys, is an adventure that is ‘short, simple, local, and cheap – yet still fun, exciting, challenging, refreshing and rewarding�...

Is that when they start the journey of mindful masturbation, their whole world changes. If you are wondering what on Earth I’m talking about, keep reading, as we are going in! It’s quite a bold statement, and yet, it’s what I’ve seen over and over again:

If so, read on, because we are going to dive into what exactly sex coaching is and how it could support you in your journey to sexual satisfaction.

As a sex coach, I see clients who are at different stages in life, from people who have been married for 20 years to single people wanting a partnership to those dating and wanting to improve their sexual performance.

“I feel like I live my life at 60%. I know there’s a lot more happiness out there that I’m sure I could have, but I’d probably also have to feel more of the downside of everything, too.”

 You know those bad days that we all have from time to time, when we feel hemmed in by life and nothing seems to be going our way? And we’re wallowing in self-pity, wondering why everyone else seems to be having it so good? Don’t be shy – we’ve all been there.

Those are the days when you think you couldn’t feel any more downbeat about the track your life is currently on, an expensive car pulls up to the kerb, the door opens and the person who gets out looks exactly like you thought you should have been by

Here’s a statistic for you. If you’re in a room with four friends who are either married or in a long-term relationship and all of them are having sex regularly with their partner, the law of averages suggests your marriage is the one that isn’t getting as much as it should.
