We always talk about the importance of both emotional intimacy and sexual intimacy in a marriage. Both go hand in hand and are VITAL to a happy and successful marriage, and good sexual intimacy. However, they are both extremely different! One's needs can often be met and satisfied outside of the marriage, while other needs cannot. So how does this impact a relationship?For most women, they need the emotional connection with their husband before they are going to be interested in the sexual connection. And for most men, they need the sexual connection with their wife before they are going to want to emotionally connect and be vulnerable with her. *We recognize this is not ALWAYS the case as each relationship is unique. But for the majority of men and women, it is.Let's assume a wife is going to lunch, working out, or doing a bunch of activities throughout the day where they are talking with and connecting emotionally with others to the point that when they get home, their emotional bucket is all filled up. The desire or need to have more emotional intimacy from their husbands might not be there as their needs have been fulfilled and met throughout the day. A husband can only get his sexual needs met by his wife in the relationship. Could this be a reason why so many women aren't interested in connecting emotionally or sexually with their husbands? And why husbands have a hard time connecting emotionally with their wife?In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss this very interesting topic and point of view and share their thoughts on it. They also share the poll results from the poll questions they asked on social media to see what you thought.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

For most couples, during the early years of marriage things are passionate and sex seems to happen often. But as time passes on, sex in the relationship dwindles and couples stop having frequent sexual intimacy and the passion wears off. This is a very common theme for MANY couples.According to experts, couples that find themselves in this type of relationship have around an 80% of ending in divorce.So you have the relationships where couples just aren’t having sex due to one of (or both) the spouses loosing interest.The second scenario is where the lower desire spouse is not wanting to have sex, but does so occasionally out of feeling “duty” to do so. This is called “duty sex.”No one likes duty sex. Not the spouse giving in, or the spouse receiving. And the problem with duty sex is the spouse doing it is going to feel resentment towards the high desire spouse, and the high desire spouse is going to feel rejected and withdrawn by the lower desire spouse.Most relationships fall under these categories where there is little to no sex happening, or where there is “duty sex” happening in the relationship. So how can marriages (or the low desire spouse) want to start making love again?In this episode, Nick and Amy share the ways couples can get out of the "duty sex" mind frame and start wanting to make love again!If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

You often hear us talk about how there is typically (in most marriages) a low desire spouse, and a high desire spouse when it comes to sexual intimacy. This imbalance can potentially cause a lot of disconnect and for many couples, even leads to divorce. In most of these relationships the lower desire spouse controls "if" and "when" sex happens which can be very frustrating for both spouses. The low desire spouse is constantly rejecting, and the higher desire spouse is being rejected. In this podcast episode we talk about what sexual rejection does to the lower desire spouse and the long term consequences in marriage, and why it is so important for couples to find a balance in their relationship. Just because one of you may be a higher desire spouse and the other may be a lower desire spouse, that doesn't mean you can't thrive in your sexual relationship, because you can!

We are going to probably get a lot of blowback from this episode from people declaring that you don't need physical intimacy (or sex) to be happy. And although there might be a very select few instances where both spouses have no sexual desire, for most couples that is not the case.Here is the reason why. In the majority of marriages, there is a high desire spouse (sexually) and a low desire spouse. The low desire spouse does not need sexual intimacy to be happy, but the high desire spouse does. So as we have talked about before in previous episodes, the low desires spouse typically controls everything related to sex. If the high desire spouse is not getting their physical needs met, they are typically going to stop providing the emotional needs. This is the toxic game played in many marriages. Check out episode 116. Is This Toxic Emotional And Sexual Intimacy Game Being Played In Your Marriage?In this episode, we talk about why BOTH the emotional and physical intimacy is needed in marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We often hear what the men are going through and the struggles they face with a porn addiction, but we seldom hear how their addiction impacts their wive's, and the struggles and anguish women go through as well because of their husbands addiction.In our last episode 210, we interviewed Jason, a husband who has a porn addiction, lost his job and tried taking his own life. In this episode (211), we interview Jason's wife where she shares her perspective and experience in dealing with this addiction in their marriage. She also shares the things they have done as a couple to work on overcoming the addiction and regain trust in the relationship.This was a truly remarkable podcast and we hope and pray it provides hope to all those couples out there dealing with a porn, or any type of addiction in their marriage, or can offer insight as to why you should try to keep porn out of your marriage at all costs.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We love the saying "actions speak louder than words" because it is so true! We can say "I love you" to our spouse all the time but that really means nothing unless it's backed up by actions. Love is a verb which requires action on our part.Yes, it is important too to express love verbally as well, but words without actions mean nothing. In this episode we talk about how you need to show and express love in ways your spouse will know you love them, and it is not good enough to just say "I love you."If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We did a fun video on our social media sharing a wife's needs list compared to a husbands needs list and of course it went viral and we got a ton of great comments and feedback on the video. Most the people who saw the video did agree with what we stated, but shared the reason why they believe it was like that. In this episode we share many of the comments from the video and discuss why a woman's needs list is typically longer... but this is not the case in Nick and Amy's marriage :)If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Over 2 years ago, we did a podcast episode with sex and health expert Cindy Scharkey titled: It's all about the clitoris, the key to unlocking female pleasure which you can listen to HERE.That has been one of the most downloaded episodes to date and has helped a lot of women learn to enjoy sexual intimacy. The statistics are crazy about how hard it is for many women to have an orgasm, largely due to not understanding what the clitoris is.. or how it works.The sole purpose of the clitoris is for female pleasure. Sex is meant to be pleasurable for both spouses, yet the reality is that many women are not experiencing the level of pleasure they deserve. This can be attributed to a lack of knowledge about their own bodies.Statistics and studies reveal fascinating insights into the complexities of female orgasm:Orgasm from Penetration: Approximately 82% of women cannot achieve orgasm solely through penetration.Never Experienced an Orgasm: A surprising 10% of women have never experienced an orgasm.In this episode we share more insight as to why the clitoris is so important for female pleasure. We share things we have learned and tools that have been a game changer for our marriage and intimacy.This is a great episode for both spouses to listen to that can truly help their lovemaking. Education about the clitoris is a powerful step towards unlocking its potential for pleasure.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

A while back, we did a poll and podcast on how a lot of husbands have at sometime in their marriage felt like their wife just wanted them for a paycheck.

We have been watching a show called “Married At First Sight” where 3 relationship and marriage experts/therapists match up couples who then  get married without ever seeing each other prior to getting married. One of the reasons we wanted to watch the show is a couple of the couples from previous seasons in the show, who actually stayed married, have been proponents of our app and have promoted it.It also intrigues us to see couples who haven’t been married before, that are usually in their late 20’s to late 30’s, get married and see if they can fall in love and actually make it work together. We decided to do this podcast episode based upon what we have learned from watching a couple seasons of Married at First Sight, because every time get done watching some episodes, Amy and I look at each other and express how grateful we are for each other and to be married to each other. Often times many of us think the grass is greener on the other side because of what we see on social media or the movies. We have an illusion that things should be perfect. Every time we watch the show, we even more come to the realization that what we have is amazing as many couples just can't find love, get a long, and most the couples end up in divorce.After listening to the episode we hope you realize how lucky you are to have each other and that you can be grateful for what you have instead of focusing on what you don’t have, because most people would give everything they have to have what you have in marriage.

Many couples only experience sex when the time is right, they are both in the mood (or the lower desire spouse approves of it) and the experience is typically the same each time.

Are you a wife that gets frustrated because your husband can't read your mind, doesn't know your thoughts, how you are feeling, or even what you expect of him? Are you a husband that lacks mind reading abilities and doesn't always know what your spouse is thinking, feeling or wanting?It's normal to hear comments from women like "my husband should know how I feel.. I shouldn't have to tell him" or "he should be able to see that I am frustrated!"Image the pressure this puts on a husband to have to try to figure out what his wife wants, needs and expects of him without her communicating it to him.When this happens, the frustration builds up for both spouses which can cause a lot of contention in the relationship when it could have been avoided by simply communicating with each other.Most husbands truly want to give their wife everything they want and desire. And all a wife has to do is tell him what she needs. Yes.. it is just that easy for most relationships.In this episode,  we talk about the reasons why mind reading doesn't work, and why you need to avoid it in your marriage.  We also share the reasons why wive's need to communicate clearly with their husbands. There are many negative consequences that can result from this mind reading assumption.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We have had many couples we know personally, as well as others from our app and content messaging us, stating that they are losing physical attraction to their spouse or that they no longer feel physically attracted to their spouse for various reasons. The common questions are, "What can I do to regain physical attraction to my spouse again?" or "What can I do to make my spouse feel physically attracted to me again?" "What if I don't feel attractive anymore, and it is affecting my desire to be intimate with my spouse?"In this podcast episode, we discuss this important topic and the things couples can do to rekindle that physical attraction and become more appealing to their spouse.This might have less to do with the way you look and more to do with the emotional connection, self-confidence, positivity, and happiness in your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

There have been many times in our marriage where we have been doing something just because we do it, that we later recognize it has had a profound positive impact on our relationship. We weren't doing it because we were trying to fix or improve anything, but just doing it because we enjoyed it, and then realize the benefits have been amazing!For example, we take a lot of showers together at night. It is a time where we can relax at the end of the day and not be disturbed, get cleaned up before bed, spend good quality time together, and have some of our most meaningful and breakthrough conversations have happened during this time together. It is also a great way to get in the mood and better your chances at being physically intimate.Many couples complain they don't have time to spend together, and according to an article by Focusonthefamily.com, the average couple spends less than 4 minutes per day in meaningful conversation! YES.. you heard that correctly.No wonder couples are having so many issues and not connecting emotionally or physically. In this episode, we talk about how doing this one thing together often can make a huge positive impact in your marriage.

The longing for perfection, both in ourselves and in our spouses, is a common theme that arises in couples and marriages. It's natural to desire perfection, thinking that if we achieve it, it will lead to bliss in the relationship. The truth is, longing for perfection will destroy intimacy in your relationship.Experience has shown that the more people chase perfection in life and marriage, the more they fall short and feel dissatisfied in the relationship. The thing about trying to achieve perfection is that you will always be disappointed because perfection is unattainable.Having a perfectionistic spouse (or if you are a perfectionist) can present unique challenges in a marriage. The constant pursuit of flawlessness and high standards can create tension, dissatisfaction, and even feelings of inadequacy.However, with understanding, patience, and effective communication, it is possible to navigate this aspect of your spouse's personality and find a healthy balance that fosters a harmonious relationship.In this episode, Nick and Amy share some surprising poll questions and results, the negative impacts of perfectionism, and great tips on how to deal with it in your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Sex is an area where many couples struggle to find balance, often with one spouse having a higher desire for sex and the other having a lower desire. This struggle can contribute to problems and even divorce among married couples. It's important to recognize that men often feel loved through sexual intimacy, while women often feel loved through emotional intimacy. Finding the balance between these forms of intimacy is key.Many women may mistakenly believe that men simply want sex, but for men, sexual intimacy encompasses much more. It can be challenging for husbands to effectively communicate their desires and explain that sexual intimacy holds deeper significance for them beyond just the physical act.In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss what husbands want their wives to know about sex, emphasizing that it's about more than just the act itself. They delve into the complexities of sexual intimacy and how it contributes to a deeper connection in marriage.If you haven't already, we encourage you to check out the Ultimate Intimacy App, available for free download in app stores or at ultimateintimacy.com.

In most relationships and marriages (whether done intentionally or unintentionally), women have complete control and say so when it comes to sex. They typically determine "if" a couple is going to have sex, "when" they are going to have sex, and everything related to sex in the relationship. Many husbands are scared to initiate sex with their spouse for fear of rejection, having it cause an argument or conflict, and many other reasons. Because of this, and the fact that most women have a responsive desire style, many couples are not connecting sexually in their relationship (and often living in sexless marriages, or close to) because sex in the marriage is up to the wife.In this podcast episode Nick and Amy discuss the reasons why this is, and how couples can work together to find a balance in their sexual intimacy and relationship where both spouses needs and desires are being met, and sex is something that both spouses have mutual respect and control over in the relationship.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We talk about communication often, but there is a reason why. When couples contact us about issues they are dealing with in their relationship, or how they want to improve something, the first question we ask is "have to talked to your spouse?" Almost every response the answer is "well no, I haven't." It is amazing how many couples can't and don't communicate how they are feeling for fear of rejection or having it cause an argument.  We believe almost every issue can be resolved with good communication. In this episode, Nick and Amy talk about "how" to communicate, and the things couples can do do make their communication a lot better, and have a lot less conflict. There are some sarcastic and joking conversations in this episode, and we have some fun with them.  Even if you feel you have good communication in your relationship, there are tips in this episode that will be greatly beneficial. This episode is a must listen for all couples looking to improve their marriage and communication.  If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

What is emotional infidelity? Emotional infidelity refers to a situation where one spouse becomes emotionally involved with someone or something outside of the relationship in a way that undermines the intimacy, trust, and commitment of the marriage. This can involve sharing intimate details, thoughts, and feelings with someone other than one's spouse, seeking emotional support or validation from someone outside the relationship, or engaging in flirtatious or romantic behavior that undermines the exclusivity of the relationship.Emotional infidelity (even at the smallest level) can obviously lead to much more serious things so it is important to discuss boundaries in the relationship, and do the things that will keep your marriage from allowing emotional infidelity to enter it.In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss what couples can do to keep emotional infidelity out of their marriage and the boundaries that couples should discuss and implement in their marriage.

We have been watching a really fun show called "Bahama's Life." The show is about couples looking for their dream property or retirement home in the Bahamas, and they look at several different properties and then decide which one is for them. The fun thing to see is how so many couples talk about how they are accomplishing their dream that they have worked together for so long for. A lot of them say that they put a picture of the house they wanted, or the property or lifestyle somewhere they could see everyday, and they worked toward that goal for many years. That picture of that house, or the beach motivated both of them to work toward the common goal(s) until they were in a position to make their dream/goal come true.This got us thinking about how important it is to have a vision/goal board in marriage to help you work toward common goals and dreams together, and all the other great benefits this has for your relationship.  It truly is a powerful way to accomplish dreams and goals you have and it works for MANY couples.In this episode Nick and Amy discuss what a vision/goal board is, the reasons you should make a dream/vision board together, and how to make one that works.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

In this episode, Nick and Amy talk about the typical stereotypes of men and women when it comes to sexual intimacy and emotional intimacy differences.  We know that not all couples fall into the typical stereotypes, but we feel that yes, we are created completely different, but at the same time we are so much more alike than we sometimes think we are.Both husbands and wives want to feel emotionally connected, spiritually connected, and sexually connected to each other, we are just different in the ways we feel and show that desire.  Filling that gap can be tricky in marriage. Nick and Amy share their tips on how finding that balance between sexual intimacy and emotional intimacy in marriage can be a little bit easier!

There have been many polls done on this subject and it is interesting that for most men, they value being respected more than they value being loved. This shows how important respect is in marriage and that marriages can't survive (or flourish) without it. However, there are often times in marriage where the respect fluctuates and can be lost, based upon certain things that happen. In this podcast episode, we discuss how important respect is in marriage (for both spouses), and the ways, and things couples do to loose respect. We also discuss the things couples can do to gain respect back. Nick and Amy share their personal experience with this subject as Nick did some things that caused Amy to loose respect for him for a time. They also discuss the things Nick had to do (and is still doing) to earn that respect back.This is a big issue for a lot of couples.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

The other day we were laying in bed (after making love) and talking and laughing at all the ways women can loose focus when making love. Amy was joking that she was close! Then lost it. Then close again... then lost it and stating all the reasons why. Her leg fell asleep, she heard a dog barking outside. She had congestion from allergies.It's funny how a nuclear war could be going on outside and it wouldn't affect the husband, but how every little thing can often impact a woman. We thought this would be a great podcast subject to talk about how husbands need to be patient with their spouse while making love, and the things a couple can do to help with the distractions.

Couples that have happy and successful marriages do a very good job at managing their time and priorities in their relationship. They prioritize the important things and put the less important things last on the list.This is the opposite of what most couples do! Most couples fill their time with everything else and put their relationship last. Maybe they don't do this intentionally, but it happens. They fill their day with all the other things and then are too tired to connect physically or emotionally.It is amazing how many couples use the excuse that they are just too busy to spend time together, or too busy to fit sexual intimacy in their relationship. However, if you looked at the time they spent on their devices or doing other "time wasters" there would be plenty of time for the more important things. For most couples, balancing their relationship and managing their time is a problem. In this episode, Nick and Amy talk about the basic things couples can do to manage their time more efficiently and connect more as we couple.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

So many couples keep score in their marriage trying to keep things fair, or following the 50/50 marriage model, and wonder why it only makes things worse. When you keep score, you then become competitors where there is ALWAYS a winner and a looser, instead of working together as a team.You try to keep things equal, but it is impossible to do so. This causes resentment, imbalance and will kill your intimacy as a couple. In this podcast episode Nick and Amy share their experiences of earlier in their marriage and how they went away from this model and why they did, and why you should as well.

A transaction is an exchange of goods or services, and something that is typically a win win for both parties involved. For example, we buy groceries and our family gets the food we need to survive, and the store gets our money. A home buyer buys a house and the seller makes money (or gets rid of the house). In our jobs, we trade our time and skills in exchange for money! Just about everything we do in life is a transaction in some way or another, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. So why would transactions in marriage or sexual intimacy be any different?Amy loves back rubs (and I know that), and I enjoy being intimate with her (and she knows that) so often times we climb into bed and I give her an amazing back rub and we make love. It is a win - win for us both! We are both satisfied and happy and we do this because we love each other, we our marriage is strengthened.So many couples look at transactional things as a horrible thing. We get comments like  "my husband is just doing this for me because he wants to have sex" or "I am just giving him sex so that he will do ________"In this episode we discuss transactional sex and chore play, and let you decide if it is something that can work for your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Being a parent is amazing and so rewarding, and no parents would trade it for anything. But unfortunately for many couples, their marriages and intimacy often take a back seat to the kids, and because of that, the marriage suffers. Couples justify this and say "we will focus on our marriage once the kids are gone." Your relationship isn't something you can just turn on and off like a light switch. Marriage takes a ton of effort and it is something you have to work on constantly, and it is never stationary. You are either growing closer together, or further apart. If you want a happy and successful marriage, you have to put your marriage first and make time for your relationship and the sexual intimacy! Even with kids, you can still prioritize your marriage and rediscover sexual intimacy. It might take more effort than it did before, but it will be well worth it.In this episode Nick and Amy talk about the ways to rediscover your intimacy and the things you can do to make it a priority your your marriage.

In a previous episode with Alex Boye, he talked about the power of our words and the impact it can have on not only to ourselves, but to our spouse (and others). There are villages in Africa that take this so seriously, they will kick you out of the village if you are too negative as they believe the words can poison the whole village. In this episode Nick and Amy tackle the hard topic of verbal abuse. When most people hear the word "abuse" they think of horrible things being said. But let's be honest, anything we say to ourselves or others that has a negative impact can be some sort of abuse. Many times we verbally abuse ourselves or our spouse without even realizing it. What we say to ourselves and others can have catastrophic consequences to both the abuser, and the abusee. Even if you feel like you don't deal with verbal abuse in anyway, this is an episode you will still want to listen to. Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!

We have talked about the love languages before, but it is such a big issue for couples that we felt like we needed to do another episode diving into the topic at a much deeper level, and providing step by step things that you can do. Many couples tell us that although they know each others love languages, there are still issues in their marriage over different love languages in the relationship. It is not enough to know each others love languages, but there are other things you need to do to and implement to fulfill each others needs and find that balance.In this episode Nick and Amy talk about the things you can do to have a great relationship even with opposite love languages, and the secrets to not only understanding each others love languages, but to fulfill them in the "right" way.If you know your spouses love language, but still cannot find the balance you are both looking for, then this episode is for you!Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!

We live in a world where good is now considered evil and anyone with sanity is now considered crazy. The traditional values, responsibilities and roles of men and women that have been around for thousands of years are suddenly now being treated as abnormal, offensive and even appalling and people are being destroyed for talking about it, or standing up for it.Men are being degraded and portrayed as stupid, weak and useless in the movies, tv shows and social media. Men are the center of jokes about how they are just another child that their wife has to take care of. They are being told how to dress, talk, and act and being totally disrespected. Men are treated as if their only purpose is to bring home the paycheck.Men are being told they should not talk about or express their desires, wants and needs, and many men are fearful of doing so.Toxic and evil people on social media and in society are convincing women that they  don't need a man, or husband because all men are horrible people. Women are told they should stay single and be independent, free and selfish and follow their own desires, and not be tied down to a husband or kids. Society is turning completely against marriage, family and God, and is doing everything it can to destroy what has been the norm for thousands of years. In this episode, Nick and Amy share their crazy experience they have had with social media and the groups and people out there trying to literally destroy men, women and marriages. They also discuss the things that you can do to not let the lies sneak into your marriage and try to destroy it.Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!

Society is convincing women that if they are "not in the mood" for sex, and if they don't feel like making love that night, then they shouldn't have to even think about it! Both people should be in the mood in order to consider making love right? WRONG! What happened to foreplay? Society is convincing men that sex is now completely "off limits" unless his wife is already "in the mood"  which seldom happens. Many husbands have expressed to us how fearful they are of even trying to initiate sex anymore, as they "only are after one thing."  Yes they are... To connect with their wife!  That is a big reason we get married, to have a passionate lover next to our side to express love to in many ways, including sex. The majority of women have a responsive desire style which means they will never be in the mood for sex, unless they "get in the mood" first. That is where foreplay comes in.   It is such a false narrative to think you have to be in the mood to be sexually intimate. THAT IS THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF FOREPLAY... TO GET A RESPONSIVE DESIRE SPOUSE IN THE MOOD TO BE SEXUALLY INTIMATE!In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss why foreplay is so important for both spouses to talk about and implement. Instead of "waiting" to be in the mood, allow your spouse to get in the mood through foreplay. Foreplay often times can be the most enjoyable part of sexual intimacy.Don't dismiss the importance of foreplay in your marriage, and don't believe that you always have to be in the mood to enjoy sexual intimacy.  That is the whole purpose of foreplay is to get a lower desire, or responsive desire spouse in the mood.Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!

We get so many messages from husbands that make comments like:"I feel like my wife just want's me for the paycheck"There are husbands that feel like their only purpose is to provide financial support.As we have talked many times before, a husband feels loved, needed and appreciated through physical affection and intimacy from his wife. Many husbands feel like they are in relationships where all their spouse wants is to be taken care of financially. They express that they feel lonely and unappreciated. **This goes both ways. We also recognize that many women feel this way as a stay at home mom or even working a job as well and we will discuss how women feel in a future episode.In this episode Nick and Amy discuss this topic and share some thoughts on what a couple can do to get out of this mind frame and find Ultimate Intimacy in their relationship. So if you are a husband that feels this way, or a wife that intentionally, or unintentionally treats your husband this way, then this episode is for you.Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!

You hear us constantly talk about how almost everything can be resolved with communication, which is absolutely true. But what happens when you have a spouse that doesn’t want to communicate (or won't communicate) because they are afraid it will turn into a fight, or they don’t want to talk because it is uncomfortable?We hear from MANY couples that they try to communicate with their spouse, but their spouse doesn’t want to. They tell us that “my spouse just won’t listen to me" or my spouse says they don't want to talk about it when I bring it up”Here are the reasons why a spouse may not want to communicate:They don’t want it to end up in an argument.They get uncomfortable talking about difficult things, so they shy away from talking about them.They have a different communication style.In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss what a spouse can do when the other one doesn't (and won't) talk to them. They share an experience from a listener that was giving up, and then did something that completely transformed their marriage almost overnight!

We always talk about how important it is to have frequent sexual intimacy in marriage, and let's face it, most couples are probably not having as much sexual intimacy as they should. But have you ever thought about if there is such a thing as too much sex? As you know, every year or so we do a 7 day sex challenge where we challenge couples to have sexual intimacy for 7 days in a row, and then share their experiences. We call it a "challenge" because it is a challenge to have sexual intimacy for 7 days even when both of you are committed to doing it.In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss the results of the 7 day sex challenge, if they were able to complete it,  and the impact it had on their relationship. They also answer the question "Is there such a thing as too much sex".Check out the Adventure and Intimacy Retreat April 14-16th in St George Utah!

About 10% of all women have never had an orgasm. And more than 80% of women cannot have an orgasm from intercourse alone. Bottom line, it is hard for many women to orgasm.For women who have never experienced an orgasm, or have a hard time having one, sex can feel like a chore. It can be un-enjoyable and even something they distance themselves from. They may feel guilt, shame or as if something is wrong or broken with them which in turn makes things even more difficult and just creates more pressure and anxiety, and less interest in sexual intimacy.The good new is, nothing is wrong or broken and it doesn’t have to be that way. Virtually ALL women can learn to orgasm and enjoy sexual intimacy. Once they learn more about their bodies, how they work, and can remove the barriers that are keeping them from having that amazing experience.In this episode, Nick and Amy talk about the 6 steps to orgasm if you have never had one, or find it very difficult to have one.

Is sex really a good indicator of how good (or bad) your marriage is? In this episode Nick and Amy talk about this and also share the poll answers we received from our audience to find out how others view this as well. We believe sexual intimacy and overall satisfaction in marriage do go hand in hand. Couples that have good sexual intimacy where both spouses are satisfied, usually have good marriages. Couples that have infrequent sexual intimacy are much more likely to feel disconnected, and possibly end up in divorce.There is a reason that the at the top cause of divorce is due to sexual intimacy issues (or lack of it) in the relationship.Want to get back the sexual intimacy and connection in your marriage?

In a previous podcast episode (81) we talked about how to know if something is ok or not ok in the bedroom. The question we presented for everyone to ask themselves was "Does it bring you closer together as a couple?"We have thought about this a lot and how it can apply to pretty much every aspect of your marriage whether is emotional intimacy, sexual intimacy, hobbies, family, finances and every other aspect. If couples could ask themselves this question before many of the decisions they make, it could help their marriage and relationship tremendously. In this episode, we discuss how asking yourself the question "Does it bring you closer together as a couple" can help you make important decisions to bring you closer together as a couple.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We recently did a video on social media for the men titled "the reasons your wife doesn't want to make love to you." We have heard a lot of the women state it is because their emotional needs are not being met. In one of the comments from the video, a husband stated: “A man’s emotional needs are linked to his wife making love to him, which she won’t do unless her emotional needs are met first, Thus the man becomes responsible for his and his wife’s emotional needs."This was a powerful statement which caused us to do this podcast, and reflect on this in our marriage as well.Most women want an emotional connection before having a physical connection with their husband. And for most men, they need to have the physical connection before they will feel safe enough for the emotional vulnerability and connection with their wife.So for MANY marriages it looks like this: The wife will withhold sexual intimacy (and sometimes use it as a weapon) as a punishment to try to get the emotional intimacy she wants from her husband. The husband is usually upset and doesn't meet his wife's emotional needs because his wife won't meet the physical needs in the relationship (because a husband needs the physical connection first). Sound familiar? This toxic game is played in many relationships.. and in this game, no one ever wins and the marriage suffers from it, many times ending in divorce. In this episode, we discuss the games that are played and the things couples can do to get both of their needs met so they can have a fulfilling marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We have all heard the stories from women complaining their husbands want sex ALL THE TIME! But what seems to be a lot less common is complaints of their husband not interested in or wanting to have sex. We have never done a podcast on this topic until now because we never thought it was an issue, but after having several women reach out to us about this, we realized it was more prevalent than we thoughts. Although this episode is geared towards women who have husbands who don't want to have sex, this topic can apply for both spouses. In this episode, we discuss the reasons why a husband would not want to have sexual intimacy with his wife and provide solutions on how to discuss and resolve this issue together as a couple.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

The other night we were having a deep conversation that was sooo good. We were assessing our marriage and talking about how this time period in life can get boring and stagnate and feel like we do the same thing every day over and over again (like Groundhog Day). We were also discussing why we think this time frame in life is the hardest on marriages. After discussing these things, we wanted to see if our assessment was right and so we looked at stats on the internet and did a social media poll and realized our assessment was right!In this episode, we (Nick and Amy) share the answers from our poll we did and discuss why this time of life can often feel so boring and repetitive, and of course things that couples can do to make their marriage more exciting during this time period in life.

For a couple of months now, we have been posting a lot of videos on social media sharing our thoughts on various topics, and things that we have implemented in our marriage that we feel have helped us tremendously. These include videos and thoughts on sexual intimacy, emotional intimacy, date nights, setting boundaries in marriage and many other topics.It is AMAZING to see how miserable many people are and their vicious comments towards marriage,  and doing good things in marriage. Some of the comments state how horrible marriage is, how couples should just cheat on each other.. or never get married in the first place, and MANY other negative things.Honestly... we were very surprised as we just assumed most married couples want to have happy and successful marriages. Otherwise, why be married if you're not happy… or at least making an effort to be happy. In this episode we share YOUR answers and feedback on questions and a poll we did. We also share the things we have learned from doing our social media videos and why we feel it is so vital to do the things to protect your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Throughout our lives, we have many boundaries. These boundaries are in place to establish what is acceptable and not acceptable. In our jobs we have boundaries. We establish boundaries with our kids, our inlaws and other family members. We know what we can and can't do. And there are consequences for crossing those boundaries. The boundaries are there to protect everyone.So why would we not have boundaries in place in our marriage? Our marriages are the most important thing (or they should be) to protect at all costs.We posted a couple videos on social media about boundaries and it is amazing to see some of the comments. People state we are in prison and our marriage doesn't stand a chance. Other people comment on how they allow their spouse to go out with ex boyfriends and be with whomever they want because they trust them. They state that boundaries are just rules to force on someone but it is important to note that boundaries and rules are completely different.So why should we set boundaries together in marriage?What are the differences between rules and boundaries in your marriage?In this episode Nick and Amy discuss the difference between rules, and boundaries and why it is important to set up boundaries TOGETHER as a couple. If boundaries are never established, how would someone know if they are ever crossing the line?This episode will give you some great insight as to why boundaries are so important and we share some of the boundaries we have established in our marriage and how it is provided more freedom in our relationship.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Maintenance Sex.. What is it and why is it important. Well look at it this way. We have to do maintenance on our cars. We check the tire pressure, fluids and get regular oil changes, filters and many other things to keep the car running properly. These are not fun things to do, and they are even expensive some times, but they are necessary to keep it functioning and running correctly. The same is with maintenance sex in marriage. Sometimes the time is not the most convenient for sex, or maybe we are not in the mood for sex, but we should consider how important it is to maintaining a happy and healthy marriage. As there is typically a high desire spouse, and a low desire spouse in the relationship, maintenance sex means that both spouses (men and women) are maintaining healthy sexual intimacy to a level that keeps both spouses satisfied. For every couple, this could look different. For one couple it may be once a week, or a couple times a month. For another couple it might look different. Both spouses need to have realistic expectations and discuss what this looks like in "their" relationship.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Just about every relationship and marriage has a high drive spouse and a low drive spouse. If you are one of those couples you are completely normal, and neither spouse is right or wrong, it is just different. As sexual intimacy is such an important aspect of marriage and long term happiness, it is important for both couples to communicate with each other and find a balance that works for both of them. If couples don't find a balance, it can lead to a lot of problems in the relationship.  In this episode Nick and Amy interview Tammy Hill, who is a certified sex therapist, to discuss how couples can manage the different sex drives and still find great satisfaction and balance in their marriage.   If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

For many people the concept of scheduling sex goes completely against what we are led to believe from watching the movies. In the movies, both people are ready to go at a moments notice and ALWAYS seem to be in the mood whether morning, afternoon or evening. It's as if they have nothing better to do. Well... the movies are a fantasy and that is not what reality is for all of us people off the big screen.

Our 100th episode! It has been an amazing ride and we are so excited to share this episode with you. We recently listened to a comedian talking about sex and titled this episode after his comedy routine as it rang so true "If you want to make love to me in the bedroom, you have to first make love to me in the kitchen". What does that mean to men and women? For men, they would love to make love in the kitchen. For women, making love starts much earlier than getting to the bedroom (or making love in the kitchen). What things do men want and what things to women want when it comes to love making?Listen to this podcast episode to find out what it means to make love to her first in the kitchen. Nick and Amy also share the social media polls and questions about what YOU think.

It is common to think there are certain roles in marriage for males and females. For many years, traditional roles were common where the woman was responsible for raising the kids and keeping the house in order.  The men would typically provide financially for the family. While this may still be the case for a lot of families, roles have shifted into modern marriage roles and couples are often both working now and providing income, taking care of the chores more equally, and raising kids together. Which roles do you have in your marriage? Was the way you were raised cause conflicts with marriage roles?  Have you and your spouse found a balance with household responsibilities?  Listen to this episode as Nick and Amy share their thoughts on the different roles in marriage, how to communicate about marriage roles and not let chores and household responsibilities cause a divide in your marriage.

We are bombarded from every conceivable angle portraying that if we don't have a certain lifestyle, car, money, marriage, house, or body,  then we cannot be happy. The constant lies can build a lot of envy and jealousy if we allow it to do so. We see on social media that our friends are going on vacation, or they just bought a new house or car. Maybe their husband got promoted to a great job. Whatever is presented to us, we can begin to think "why don't I have that house, or why don't we travel to those places, or why is that not happening to me..." and because there is everything out there, something will hook us in. What we don't see is behind the curtain. We don't see the debt people are in for that new car, or house. We see a mirage of things, but these mirages cause us to have envy and jealousy. When we start down that path of getting jealous of someone, or envying what others have, it can slowly destroy you, and your relationship like a cancer.  People with envy and jealousy often become resentful, ungrateful, and bitter and think they can't find happiness unless they achieve what others have, and even then they won't be fulfilled. In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss how jealousy and envy for others can destroy you and your marriage if you allow it to do so. We also share experiences we have had and things you can do to keep from allowing this to creep into your life. If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

We talk often about how communication is probably the most important aspect in marriage and how couples can resolve almost any issue with open and honest communication. But so many couples have a hard time communicating.

It is vital to know each others communication style so you can better learn how to effectively communicate with each other. In this episode Nick and Amy interview Denise and Oliver Marcelle about an article they wrote called "Communication Styles - What's yours?" and dive into the different styles and how to address them in a relationship.

As a culture, many Christians are often very uncomfortable talking about sex in their marriages (and families). In many households, sex is not talked about, and if it is, it is often in a negative light. For many Christians, this causes problems when they grow up and get married. Spouses might feel shame, fear or other negative feelings about sexual intimacy, or don't communicate about sex together because of their upbringing. For many couples, they are taught sex is bad, and to refrain from it. Then the moment they get married, it is now ok. This is hard for a lot of Christian couples. So how can Christian couples learn to communicate about sex more openly? How can couples realize sex is from God and to be enjoyed to the fullest extent together as a couple?In this episode, Nick and Amy interview Alana and Kyle with Kingdom Sexuality Ministry about what Christian couples can do to better their sexual intimacy and get past the barriers that keep them from having a fulfilling sex life together.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Research shows around 50% of all marriages in the United States will end in divorce.  That is a staggering statistic! Why is this happening and what is causing this trend? While there are probably many answers to this question, but couples are obviously falling out of love.When couples are first dating, they do the things in the relationship that builds love and that continues to grow. They get married and think their whole life will be like it was when they were dating and the feelings will just grow, only to find out as time goes by, they slowing start to fall out of love. They stop working on the relationship, going on dates, doing fun things together and the things that caused them to fall in love. Love is something you have to constantly work on and for it to continue to grow, and if you stop doing the things that strengthen the love for each other, then the love is going to eventually wither away and die. When love is absent in a marriage, you just end up with 2 people living with each other.     In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss the signs you could be falling out of love, and more importantly what you can do to change the direction and find "Ultimate Intimacy" again.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

According to MANY Divorce Attorneys, lack of intimacy is rated the #2  reason for divorce. #1 is most often infidelity.. which can often be the result of #2 (lack of intimacy). Bottom line, lack of intimacy/sex is one of THE main causes of divorce. There are so many couples that have deep love for each other and get along great, have fun times together and have everything a good and healthy relationship has…but because of the lack of sex (or importance of sex) in their marriage, it eventually ends in divorce.  This may sound harsh or even shallow, but it happens all the time and illustrates how important sex is in marriage regardless of how good all other aspects are. Nick and Amy discuss the amazing answers from  the instagram poll taken asking the following questions:Does making love help you feel less stressed and more confident?What are the reasons you crave sexual intimacy with your wife?How do you feel when you are rejected constantly?Does sex play an important role in your happiness in your marriage?Nick and Amy discuss How your husband really feels when you reject him sexually.A lot of women just think a man wants sex to take care of his needs. Nothing could be further from the truth. Sex is not just about sex to a man, but so much more. Sex is not just a "want" but a "need" for him. In this episode we discuss what rejection does to a man and a relationship over time and how to work through it.DISCLAIMER: We recognize there are many marriages where it is reversed, and the husband is the one rejecting their wife sexually which can cause the same emotions, feelings and problems in the marriage. We will address that in a future episode.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Sex is an AMAZING thing that can bring couples closer together, strengthen their marriage and be incredible for both of spouses if they are implementing good things into their relationship that brings them closer together. On the flip side, we all know there are also things (that if implemented in your sexual intimacy) can quickly tear couples apart and DESTROY their marriage. This may be one of the reasons we get a TON of people messaging us asking our thoughts and opinions regarding what is ok and not ok to do, seeking answers for their relationship. While some of the questions are of course very hard to answer as they are not as simple as just a "YES" or "No" response, there are things that WILL hurt your marriage that are a simple ok or not ok response. As everyone comes from different backgrounds, experiences and beliefs, what is ok and good for some couples may not be right for other couples. As there are a lot of people looking for answers to these difficult subjects, we thought it would be great to share what we do in "our" marriage to determine if something is going to strengthen our relationship, or hurt our relationship (ok or not ok).  For those that are also wondering what is ok and not ok for their marriage we will provide you simple ways that you can determine that for "your" relationship.

We constantly talk about things couples can do to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in their relationship. However, we understand that things are not always perfect in a relationship and fighting is something that is normal and healthy to do, but it is important to fight "the right way" so that your arguments and disagreements move your relationship forward and don't cause any harm or damage long term. In this episode Nick and Amy discuss "The Things You Should NEVER Say To Your Spouse When You Are Fighting". Just like a social media post or something you say on the internet that can never be erased, so is fighting with your spouse. Things that you say to your spouse in the heat of the moment can NEVER be taken back and can change the relationship forever, so it is extremely important what you say (and don't say) when you are fighting.Check out this episode to learn the things you should never say when arguing or  fighting.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

In many of their previous podcasts, Nick and Amy have discussed things you can do in your marriage to create more emotional and physical intimacy, and also the things that can hurt intimacy in your marriage. Most of them are pretty common things that many couples deal with and recognize they impact their marriages...but there are also several hidden things that can "kill" the intimacy in your marriage and could be happening without you even knowing it. We took a poll and asked couples what kills intimacy in their marriages and very few people listed the things we have in this episode, so we know it can greatly help your marriage. In this episode Nick and Amy discuss the "hidden" intimacy killers in your marriage that you may not even be aware of, and how to fix them so you can find Ultimate Intimacy in your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Many couple's don't discuss or feel the need to have boundaries in their marriage. They feel that boundaries take away freedom, or that they would only be needed due to a lack of trust in the relationship. Nothing could be further from the truth. Couple's that haven't discussed or agreed to certain boundaries in their marriage are much more likely to do something (even unintentionally) that could cause distrust or issues at some point in their marriage. Couples that have boundaries are much more likely to have MORE freedom and trust in their marriages and less problems as they have communicated and set boundaries in their relationship. If couples haven't discussed their boundaries  with the opposite sex,  or sexual boundaries in their own relationship, there is no line that is ever crossed if there is never a line (boundary established).Boundaries in marriage are a shield and a protection for your marriage....from all the onslaughts of the world trying to destroy marriages.In this episode, we discuss the boundaries in our marriage that we have established and how it has had protected our marriage.

We just had our 20th anniversary and we were discussing all the things we have learned  over the past 20 years of our marriage (which are many). There were a lot of expectations of what we thought marriage would be like, and perceptions of things in life with our relationship and how we viewed other relationships as well. Of course we were wrong about many of our expectations and perceptions of what we thought. The things we have learned have helped our marriage tremendously, and although everyone's marriages are different and unique based upon their background and life experiences, we think most of these things on our list will resonate with you and help you in your marriage!We also share many of the poll answers from our survey on social media "What have you learned from your marriage and what tips would you give  a married couple?

How to get your wife to want more sex?.... This is the million dollar question that most men would sell all they own to know the answer to ;) We polled over 1000 wives on social media to get REAL answers for you.Here are the questions we asked in the poll:What non-sexual things does your husband do that turns you on and gets you in the mood for sex?What things does your husband do to get you mentally in the mood for sex? What things does your husband do to make you instantly lose your desire for sex?Do you feel like the sexual intimacy in your marriage is positive? We know that every couple is different and some things work for some couples where they do not work for others, but there are some specific things that you as a husband can do to get your wife in the mood more often.We also have an article on our blog called "5 ways to get your wife to want more sex" which outlines the things a husband can do to get his wife in the mood for sex more often which you can find HERE. If you are a husband that would love to have more sexual intimacy with your wife, then this episode is for you! DISCLOSURE: We understand that it is not always the husband that wants sex more often than his wife does. In fact, we hear from many women that they are the higher sex drive spouse. 

The majority of people now days have an addiction to technology which has a significant impact on their sex life and relationship. The stats are incredible. In this episode Nick and Amy discuss an article from Emily Jamea called "The Modern Day Libido Killer" found HERE, and also share insights from an article from The 80/80 marriage, about how technology is killing our sex lives and relationships. If you and your spouse are not having sexual intimacy on a regular basis, technology is most likely one of the major reasons for this. In this day and age our minds are so consumed and distracted, it's hard to pay attention to sexual cues, feel in sync with our spouse, and get in the right frame of mind for sex. We took a poll on instagram to see what you think and get your thoughts and the results are quite incredible. We asked:Does technology keep you from connecting with your spouse?Do you have less sexual intimacy because of technology?Who is more addicted to their phone in marriage (husband or wife)?We also share some astonishing facts:How many times do you think the average person touches their phone per day? How many hours per day does the average adult spend on technology?50% of people admit to experiencing full-on behavior addiction to their phones.We also share a quiz from 80/80 Marriage on how to know if you have an addiction to the internet/technology.

Nick and Amy interview Bryan Reeves who is the author of a new book called "Choose Her Everyday (or leave her)" about the importance of choosing your spouse everyday in your relationship. Bryan compares a relationship to a precious fragrant flower that is brought into the home, but then fails to be watered. Relationships start out beautiful and amazing but if we dont continue to nourish and feed those relationships, they will eventually die. We also discuss why you need to choose her (your wife) everyday, the 3 stages of love and the one you need, why great sex is never enough and you need to have 3 things to have a healthy relationship, how without a shared purpose your relationship will fail, and how relationships between couples are messy, but part of life. These are just a preview of the great things in Bryan's book and the perspective he provides. This is a great read for all the men (and women) out there and this book will help you look at your relationship with your spouse in a whole new way.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

About a year and a half ago, we had a lady write to us and say she would never be using the Ultimate Intimacy App again based upon an article we had on the app. We were shocked and wondered what we had on the app that would cause this as we personally review and post everything that goes on the app.  It was an article that was written by a Sex expert and Marriage Counselor.We read through the article several times again and thought that everything stated in it was beautiful and offered ways for couples to draw closer together and connect deeper. We found nothing wrong or offensive at all and were very confused so of course we did our research and wanted to share our thoughts.In this episode, we discuss the taboo word that a lot of Christians don't like and possibly just don't understand. We believe that any time you slow sex down, concentrate on your spouse and use your 5 senses, that even deeper Ultimate Intimacy can be found in your marriage.

In marriage, more often than not couples come from different backgrounds and have different experiences growing up which shapes "their" parenting styles and beliefs. For example, one might have had very strict parents with many rules and structure while the other spouse may have had very lenient parents with little structure. While neither one is right or wrong, our reality of how we were raised can shape our perception on how we should parent our kids. It is vital for couples to talk about "how" they are going to parent their kids and make sure they are on the same page with how they do it. If couples are not on the same page with how they raise their kids, it can cause some serious issues in the marriage. In fact, many divorces happen because of this. In this Episode, Nick and Amy interview Dustin and Alana with Marriage In Action and talk about the 15 things parents need to be on the same page about. Some of these include:How you are going to discipline your kidsWho your kids friends are and who they spend time withYour expectations and consequences The entertainment your child is engaged in such as video games, movies, reading and musicStandards and beliefs you are going to teach your kids (religious, political etc)If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

As men and women, we are biologically different...and that is how God made us and wants it to be. The world wants us to think we have to be the same and there is no difference between a man and woman biologically. This is not how God made us and it is good that we are wired differently and have different strengths, weaknesses and emotional and physical desires as men and women. When we understand how we are biologically different and how men and women function,  it is easier to create "Ultimate Intimacy" in the relationship. In this episode, Nick and Amy talk with Dauren Francis of Knot Easily Broken about the 10 differences he states in a post he did. Some  of these include:Men are thinkers while women are emotional feelers. Men analyze things while women feel things.Men go to the store and buy what they need and leave. Women go shopping and they have an experience. It can be therapeutic.Men just need a place to have sex. Women need a reason to have sex. Sex is wired to her brain.Husbands typically just want to solve your problems, and women want their husbands to listen about the problems and talk about them.Womens sexuality is tied to how she is treated. Love, honor, affection, time spent, vulnerability, intimacy, date night etc. A mans sexuality is based on what he sees. He is very visual.*We recognize and understand that not everyone falls under these categories or is wired this way, but we are using this as the differences of "most" men and women. This episode will offer so much insight and help!

In this episode Nick and Amy talk about an article written by Cindy Scharkey titled "Understanding your desire style for better sex.” One of the most common arguments in marriage is over how often a couple is having sex. It comes down to one spouse wanting it more than the other which can lead to trouble in the bedroom... and overall relationship issues.  It is so important to understand each others "desire styles" and just because couples have mis-matched desire styles doesn't mean something is wrong with you or your spouse, it just means you have a different. When you better understand each other’s differences and discuss openly, things can change in a very positive way. Most men have a spontaneous desire, women are more responsive, and then there is combination desire. In this episode, you will learn about the different desire styles, and how to find balance and Ultimate Intimacy together.Don't forget to download the Ultimate Intimacy App for free in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.Check out our amazing products to help your emotional and physical intimacy such as:- Conversation Starters- 150+ Date Night Ideas- Truth or Dare Game- Romantic and Sexy Coupons- Bedroom GameCheck them out HEREFollow us on Instagram @ultimateintimacyapp.If you have any feedback, comments or topics you would like to hear on future episodes, reach out to us at amy@ultimateintimacy.com and let us know!

We often don't consider how what we say to our spouse can impact our emotional and physical intimacy as a couple, but what we say, and how we say it can have lasting effects for the positive or the negative. Are we expressing gratitude for the things our spouses do and the what we have, or are we looking at the negative things and allowing those to bring us down? Do we look at the glass as "half full" or "half empty" and how are we looking at our relationship with our spouse? Do we show respect by what we say to our spouse, or how we are communicating?

In this episode, Nick and Amy discuss things you can do to find/make more time for sexual intimacy  in your marriage. For many couples, sexual intimacy becomes one of the last priorities on a couples "to do" list, and as such, sex becomes very infrequent and couples grow further apart from each other as they are not getting that important connection.Sexual intimacy is so much more than just sex, and should be equally beneficial for both spouses. Having frequent sexual intimacy has so many benefits physically, emotionally and mentally. In this episode, Nick and Amy share things you can do to make time for physical intimacy  in your busy lives, and more importantly, make sex a priority.

Many couples go into marriage having "expectations" or "myths" about how things "should" be in marriage, and most often they are much different than either spouse expects. In this episode, Nick and Amy share the myths, and things they thought were true about marriage that turned out to be totally false (myths) such as marriage would always be full of passion and romance, both spouses would enjoy sex and have matching libidos, both spouses would know what each other wants in the bedroom and figure it out quick, and both spouses could last a long time and sex would be "a marathon".  Nick and Amy also took a poll on instagram and had hundreds of great responses of what myths they had before getting married such as: The husband would have a higher sex drive than his wife, or that they would have sex much more than they do. Instead of feeling let down or feeling like something is wrong in your relationship because what you expected is not the way it is, know that almost every relationship experiences this, but don't let your expectations (or the myths) keep you from finding and having  "Ultimate Intimacy" in your relationship.

In Episode 21 Nick and Amy discuss many of the reasons why some spouses do not want to have sex, and some solutions to those reasons. When a spouse does not want to have sex, there is a reason behind it causing them to not want or desire it, but many couples avoid talking about it or addressing the issue and it becomes worse over time. If the reason can be identified, and discussed, it can most often be resolved. Some of the reasons include:  Fear of intimacy, sexual dysfunctions, self confidence issues, stress, distractions, and more.
