Being turned on means to be ready. Not, in this case, for sexy stuff, but to be ready to invite life in. Do you feel open to that invitation? Or are you instead worn out, exhausted, and touched out?
This episode's topic came from Esther Perel and her work with couples and intimacy within a marriage. A lot of what Perel talks about is about sex, except it isn’t about the act of sex. It is about how we relate to each other as humans. How we have the capacity for intimacy, and how that can be damaged by our individual upbringing, emotional wounds, and just the monotony and cultural pressures around raising a family, and also how it can be healed.
Motherhood - life - doesn’t have to feel this way. But if you are waiting for someone to swoop in and fix it, you might be waiting a long time.
This episode is about how you can reconnect with yourself, reconnect with the world, start to feel alive and vital again. It is about how you can light yourself back up again.
