    Sex for Saints

    As a Certified Sex & Marriage Coach, and a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Amanda Louder helps conservative Christian women love their sex life!

    In this podcast, Amanda helps women embrace their sexuality so that they can become the woman they were created to be. She teaches you how to integrate sexuality into your marriage in a loving and healthy way, get rid of the drama and negative emotions around sex in your marriage, and develop a better relationship to yourself, your spouse, and your sexuality.

    Episode 415 – The ABC Loop: How to Stop Pressuring Your Spouse About Sex

    If you’ve been trying everything to fix your sex life and nothing seems to be working, this episode might feel a little uncomfortable, but also like a breath of fresh air. I’m sharing why the harder you push for connection, the more distance you might actually be creating, and what’s really going on underneath that dynamic. We’ll talk about the subtle pressure that shows up in relationships (even with the best intentions) and why it can shut desire down completely. I’ll walk you through a simple but powerful framework called the ABC Loop that helps you create change without resistance. If you’re tired of feeling rejected or stuck, this episode will give you a completely different way to approach intimacy.
