EPISODE 16
50 Shades of nay: when your turn-on needs a tune-up
Ever felt like your sex drive went on vacation and forgot to come back? Wondering if your low libido is a hormone issue, a stress issue, or just… life? And what really happens in sex therapy anyway? Candles, couches, or clipboards?
In this episode of Labia Logic, Dr. Meredith McClure and Dr. Ashley Fuller are talking all about desire with certified sex therapist and licensed counselor Trista Jones, LPC-S of Sexual Health Experts (SHE). Get ready to laugh, learn, and maybe blush a little as the trio unpacks the many layers of libido including what is biological, emotional, or somewhere in-between.
Trista explains how sex therapy helps patients untangle what’s really behind a turned-off sex life. She covers trauma, medical pain, perimenopause, and plain old exhaustion. She shares how therapy sessions actually work, why sex is a team sport for your brain and your body, and why mindfulness, communication, and even scheduled intimacy can reignite connection.
Listeners will leave this episode knowing how to find a qualified sex therapist, what to expect from therapy, and how to start the conversation about desire, without shame or awkwardness.
Whether your libido’s MIA or just in need of a little fine-tuning, this episode proves you’re not broken. You just might need a new tune-up plan.
