Eroticism requires a sense of mystery, right, and for a lot of people mystery is a source of anxiety, or uncertainty is a source of anxiety, and so they avoid it, and they don't realize that that pursuit of order and predictability drives down desire over time.
Ever wondered if your need for control is affecting your love life? In this eye-opening episode of 'Eggshell Transformations', host Imi Lo sits down with Dr. Tom Murray, a forensic sexologist and couples therapist, to explore how perfectionism can sabotage intimacy. Dr. Murray, known for his candid and no-nonsense approach, dives into the ways over-control can stifle eroticism and connection in relationships.
He explains how our childhood experiences often lay the groundwork for these controlling behaviors and offers practical advice on how to embrace uncertainty and mystery to reignite passion. With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Murray provides invaluable insights into building stronger, more fulfilling relationships by shedding labels and leaning into anxiety. If you're curious about how to transform your perfectionist tendencies into a healthier dynamic with your partner, this episode is a must-listen.
