EP478 - Your Sex Life: Before & After Children

Welcome to Episode 478 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I am excited to be joined by EJ and Tarah Kerwin who speak to me about sex and parenting, how becoming parents reshaped their intimacy, desire, and how they maintain their emotional connection to each other. In this episode, EJ and Tarah speak to me about what it was like to go from a playful, spontaneous sex life to feeling completely overwhelmed after the birth of their twins; navigating sleep deprivation, and the resurfacing of past trauma. They also talk openly about the grief that can accompany shifts in identity, libido, and partnership, and how isolating that transition can feel when couples are not talking about it. EJ and Tarah Kerwin are the founders of Relationship Renovation and hosts of the Relationship Renovation Podcast, where they share raw honesty, humor, and decades of combined experience as relationship coaches to help couples deepen intimacy, build emotional safety, and navigate the complexities of long-term partnership. Known for their vulnerability and willingness to share their own relationship challenges, EJ and Tarah offer practical tools, research-backed insights, and real-life stories that resonate with couples around the world. In this episode, you will hear: · The Impact Of Parenting On Sexual Desire · Navigating Postpartum And Identity Shifts · Grief Around Changing Intimacy · Higher And Lower Desire Dynamics · Emotional Safety In Long Term Relationships · Pressure Windows And Sexual Expectations · Rebuilding Intimacy Through Communication · Processing Trauma Within Partnership · Non Sexual Affection And Erotic Connection · Creating Systems To Prioritize Your Relationship FREE Foreplay Checklist Ideas Spice Up Your Social Media Feed AND Your Sex Life:
