Most couples believe there are three major threats to a relationship.
Infidelity.
Dishonesty.
Poor Communication.
Those are the ones we talk about the most.
But what about money?
I think that money is one of the biggest threats. To our relationships and to our sex lives.
Not necessarily because people fight about it. Though that’s a thing. And not always because someone is financially irresponsible or hiding something.
Sometimes it’s just regular old financial stress.
The bills might get paid, but money takes up more mental space than that. It’s one of the hardest parts of adulting. And it can’t stop, won’t stop.
When money isn’t flowing, you wake up thinking about it. If an unexpected expense pops up, you can’t sleep.
Money influences hundreds of little decisions throughout the day.
You might think it’s a practical problem. A numbers issue. But financial stress doesn’t stay in your bank account. It affects how relaxed you feel, how present you are, how much mental space you have, and how you fuck. Or whether you’re fucking at all.
That’s what I’m talking about in this week’s episode. The connection between financial stress, the nervous system, and the way money changes your sex life without you realizing it.
