Breaking the Taboo

You want something more in your love life with your wife. Maybe more frequent, more passionate, more connected.

But sometimes she feels like a mystery to you.

How do you figure out where she's coming from? Here's the secret: you have to talk to her. Yes, even about sex.

In this episode, I'll share why this conversation matters, what your goal should be for that first conversation (hint: it's not to solve everything), and some practical tips for how to actually have it. Grab a cup of coffee and let's talk about it.

About the Podcast

Holy Desires
Where Catholic husbands grow in intimacy, inside and outside the bedroom.
Hey, I'm Nathan. Each week, I grab a coffee and we talk about what it really means to love your wife well—especially in the bedroom.

There aren't many places where Catholic men can have honest conversations about sex. This is one of them. We'll tackle the hard stuff: the struggles, the frustrations, the questions you don't know who to ask. Let's ditch the shame and awkwardness and have authentic discussions about intimacy, desire, and becoming the husband and lover your wife deserves, inside and outside the bedroom.

Grab a coffee, pull up a chair, and let's begin!
