WHAT DOES AN INTIMACY COACH DO?

An intimacy coach is a trained professional who specializes in helping individuals and couples cultivate deeper connections and enhance their intimate relationships. The role of an intimacy coach is to guide and support their clients in exploring various aspects of intimacy, including emotional, physical, and sexual intimacy.

Intimacy coaches create a safe and non-judgmental space for their clients to express their needs, desires, and concerns related to intimacy. An intimacy coach helps clients develop self-awareness and emotional intelligence, enabling them to better understand their own desires and those of their partner. They provide guidance on effective communication techniques, conflict resolution, and exploring new ways to deepen emotional and physical intimacy.

    173. Unlocking Passion: How Confidence Shapes Success in Love and Life - Expert Advice from Dr Alexandra Stockwell

    In this episode of the Intimate Marriage podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD dives into confidence and how it shapes success in love and life. She sheds light on the crucial role of self-confidence and how attractive it is within intimate relationships, and more specifically, how it plays out among ambitious, educated couples. 
    Dr Alexandra explores the common scenario where one partner craves more from their relationship while the other seems content with the status quo. She provides guidance on how to reignite passion and cultivate a deeper sense of self-worth, emphasizing the magnetic power of confidence as one of the ultimate keys to a more fulfilling and vibrant partnership. 
     
    Also in this episode:
    Confidence is the most attractive quality in a partner and a fundamental ingredient for a passionate and thriving marriage.
    Seeking affirmation and validation from a partner creates an unhealthy parent-child dynamic, which is detrimental for erotic connection.
    The best course of action for someone feeling needy or rejected is to focus on developing their own sense of value and self-worth.
    Bringing one's confident, successful self (with authenticity, not bravado) from your professional life into your personal relationship is a pivot that will result in a significant improvement in intimacy.
