Fuck! Is this as good as it gets? I know the “happily ever after” thing is a bit of a fairy tale, but I never imagined that in marrying the person of my dreams I would one day be dreaming for someone/something more. Sex has become an obligation… a transaction to keep the peace. The desire for passion is imprisoned in my dreams and fantasies… it is not present in my relationship from either of us. We could keep going like this, raise our kids, take vacations once a year… I’m sure things will be fine! But is it bad to say…I want more than FINE! I want fucking Fantastic! This was a chat I had with a client during a recent consult call.
We are obsessed with the idea of love but not nearly as obsessed with investing in love. For the last decade I have made it my mission to support couples in undressing intimacy issues and creating a realistic approach to love in the modern world. Life is busy, so we focus on the micro moments of connection and work collaboratively to reignite that spark.
No couple gets married hoping for an “average” relationship. Reclaim your love and your life today. Don’t waste another second questioning if this is “as good as it gets”! I can help you pursue deep fulfillment and connection in every area of your life, with your relationship at the forefront. Contact me now for a free 20-minute consultation. I've got you.
