(Audio) Beyond the Problems: How Play Transforms Sex, Desire & Intimacy

Episode 71

Wednesday, May 13, 2026 • Duration 01:00:26

In this uplifting and transformative episode of Dr. Jeff Talks About Sex & Intimacy, Dr. Jeff and cohost Dr. Susan Kellogg-Spadt are joined by Lena Elkhatib, LMFT, CST, CST-S—sex therapist, educator, and expert in cultivating erotic well-being. Lena will explore the profound impact of play on sexual connection, desire, and relational intimacy. People often approach sexual challenges with a problem-focused, analytical mindset—trying to “figure out” desire, performance, or communication with logic alone. But the erotic self doesn’t live in the head; it lives in sensation, curiosity, imagination, and embodied presence. Lena shows us why play is one of the most underestimated tools for shifting out of intellectualizing and into authentic erotic exploration.

We dive into how playfulness helps couples navigate desire discrepancies, decrease pressure, spark creativity, and reconnect with their felt sense of pleasure. Lena shares practical ways to cultivate an erotic mindset, prioritize fun, and build a sexual dynamic rooted not in duty or stress—but in joy, experimentation, and shared adventure. Whether you’re feeling stuck, mismatched, disconnected, or just wanting to expand your erotic repertoire, this conversation offers a refreshing, compassionate approach to making intimacy feel more alive, spontaneous, and satisfying.

(Audio) Beyond Penetration: Rethinking Pleasure, Intimacy & Sex

Wednesday, April 15, 2026 • Duration 58:23

Sex changes as bodies change. Erections can become less predictable. Penetration can become painful, limited, or no longer desirable. Desire often shifts beyond the narrow definitions of sex portrayed in media with penetration and intercourse as the final goal. In this episode, Dr. Sara Sohn explores what intimacy can look like when penetration is no longer the central focus. She discusses pleasure through sensation, collaboration, and multiple erogenous pathways, as well as the role of kink as a structured and consensual way to have amazing sexual experiences. Sara shares her HEART to HEART model for exploring kink and play in a way that feels accessible, curious, and embodied. Rather than seeing kink as something extreme or separate from “normal” sex, this conversation reframes it as a practical and playful tool for adapting to changing bodies and deepening connection. This episode is for anyone who desires sex that feels delicious in the body they are actually in.

(Audio) Beyond Performance: How Sensate Focus Rebuilds Connection and Pleasure

Episode 66

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 • Duration 54:18

When sex becomes about “doing it right,” intimacy often suffers. In this episode, Dr. Jeff is joined by Nicholas A. Maio-Aether, MAMFT, MSPSY, LBA, CSC, IBA, BCBA, to unpack the theory and practice of sensate focus, Sensate Focus is used in a variety of settings and sometimes overseen by varied professionals of different backgrounds including therapists, counselors & coaches (as well as by couple's themselves sometimes). Together, we will explore how sensate focus helps reduce sexual anxiety, shift couples away from outcome-based sex, and foster embodied awareness, safety, and pleasure. Whether you’re navigating sexual dysfunction, recovering from illness or trauma, or simply feeling disconnected, this conversation offers a compassionate, evidence-based roadmap back to intimacy through mindful touch and curiosity.*The expert's opinions in this communication are personal and not representative of any organization.
