Sex, Stress, and CEO Energy - Let’s Talk About It
Running a business with your partner sounds kinda hot, right? Power couple vibes, shared goals, steamy boardroom banter... until you’re both tired, stressed, snapping at each other over Slack, and the only thing getting pounded is your to-do list.
In this episode, Sydney and Audrina get real about what it’s like to build businesses and relationships with their romantic partners, and how that dynamic shows up in the bedroom. Sometimes it adds fuel to the fire. Other times… let’s just say, business stress isn’t exactly an aphrodisiac.
They don’t stop at the work/love balance. They go there - full stop. Sex, desire, confidence, connection, and self-pleasure. They also touch on why so many people are struggling behind the scenes.
Did you know?
- Millennials and Gen Z are having less sex than previous generations did at their age, a trend known as the “sex recession.”
- 95% of straight men say they “always” or “usually” orgasm during sex, compared to just 65% of straight women. (Yep. That’s the orgasm gap, and we have thoughts.)
- And communication? It’s consistently ranked as one of the top predictors of a satisfying sex life. So if you’re not talking about it, it’s time to start.
In this conversation, you’ll hear:
- The stats on female arousal that explain a lot about why your sex life might feel off (and what you can do about it)
- The dirty little secret: Women love sex. A lot. So let’s start talking about it like grown-ass women
- Why a low-key sex rut can ripple through your whole relationship, and how to get out of it
- What sex really represents (hint: it’s not just about the act)
- Why sex gets way better as you get older
- Audrina and Sydney’s go-to mindset shifts to feel more confident, sexy, and connected
- How to build physical connection when you’re not exactly in the mood but still want to keep the spark alive
- Why low sex drive isn’t a life sentence, and what you can actually do about it
- Pro tips from women for the men who want to step it up in the bedroom (yes, we’re giving you the playbook)
This episode is your permission slip to talk more openly, ditch the shame, and reconnect with your body and your partner, no matter how many businesses, babies, or back-to-back meetings are in the mix.
Because you deserve to feel powerful and turned on—in and out of the office.
