Emotional & Physical Turn-Offs in Marriage (and How to Create More Attraction Again): Episode 407

Attraction in marriage doesn't just disappear overnight, but it can fade through the habits, energy, and unspoken patterns you fall into over time.

In this episode, we reveal the biggest emotional and physical turn-offs (and turn-ons) based on anonymous submissions from real couples. This episode is for couples who want to feel that spark again—without needing to go back to the beginning.

In this episode you will hear:

  • What's quietly draining desire in your relationship
