Philadelphia Sex Therapist Reveals: It's Not Low Desire, It's Your Nervous System | How to Want Sex Again
In this illuminating episode, Philadelphia-based intimacy coach Erinn Hoel reveals the hidden connection between your overloaded nervous system and your disappeared desire.
Have you found yourself avoiding your partner's touch? Spending extra time in the bathroom hoping they'll be asleep when you come out? Feeling a mix of guilt and resentment about intimacy?
Contrary to popular belief, your low desire isn't about hormones, relationship problems, or being "broken." It's about your body's natural protection mechanisms going into overdrive.
Using the powerful "circuit breaker" analogy, Erinn explains why traditional advice like scheduling date nights, buying lingerie, or "just doing it anyway" often makes things worse, not better.
You'll learn:
Why your body physically blocks desire when your nervous system is overwhelmed
How to identify the specific triggers that trip your body's "circuit breaker"
The transformative changes that happen when women reset their nervous systems
A proven pathway back to genuine desire that doesn't involve guilt or obligation
