  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 16: "Testosterone & Tingles"—When Hormones Hold the Missing Piece [RTH Episode #29]
    2025/12/09

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Let’s have a little holy honesty—when it comes to low desire in the bedroom, especially for women, it’s rarely just about hormones. Emotional wounds, spiritual weariness, exhaustion, disconnection, and stress all play a role. But sometimes… hormones really are the missing piece.

    In this episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie open up Chapter 16 of Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire, and they're getting personal—sharing their own journey (especially Cassie) with testosterone therapy, what they’ve learned, and how it might help others who feel like they’ve done all the work and still feel stuck.

    Josh and Cassie (Certified Christian S*x Therapist and s*x educators) are exploring:

    • Why desire struggles are often multifaceted, not just hormonal
    • What role testosterone plays in your body as a woman
    • How to know if hormone therapy could be right for you
    • How to find a provider who listens to your body and values your whole-person wellness
    • Why testosterone isn’t a replacement for healing—but a companion to it

    Because here’s the thing: testosterone isn’t just the “man hormone.” It’s vital for women, too—just in smaller, God-designed amounts. And when your body is low on this powerful hormone, it can affect energy, mood, and yes—s*xual desire.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Hormones are one thread in a larger tapestry of s*xual well-being
    • Testosterone is a God-designed hormone for women, too
    • Low-dose therapy can gently support desire, energy, and vitality
    • Addressing hormones isn’t cheating—it’s stewarding the body God gave you

    You’re not broken, lazy, or unspiritual if your body isn’t responding the way you wish it would. Sometimes healing comes through prayer. Sometimes it comes through therapy. And sometimes it comes through science—God-honoring, body-listening, hormone-balancing science. You deserve to feel vibrant, connected, and alive—in every part of your life, including your s*x life.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 15: "Tongues of Fire"—What Does the Bible Say about Or@l S*x? [RTH Episode #28]
    2025/12/02

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Let’s be honest—or@l s*x probably didn’t come up in Sunday school. But tucked right into the pages of God’s inspired love poetry (hello, Song of Songs) is a bold and beautiful picture of sensual, sacred pleasure.

    In this episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie open up Chapter 15 of their book Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire and dive into a topic that often feels taboo in Christian circles: or@l s*x in marriage.

    From Song of Songs 2:3—“I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste,”—biblical scholars have long seen this poetic metaphor as a nod to the joy of physical, or@l pleasure between husband and wife. That’s right, friend—it’s in the Bible. And it’s not shameful. It’s celebrated.

    Josh and Cassie (Certified Christian S*x Therapist and s*x educators) are exploring:

    • How Scripture actually addresses sensuality and desire
    • How to talk to your spouse about exploring this part of your s*x life
    • Creating emotional safety, spiritual connection, and mutual joy in the process
    • Why or@l s*x can be a powerful, trust-building part of marital intimacy

    They’ll also walk through the subtopics in Chapter 15 of the book, giving you a taste of what’s covered (pun fully intended 😉) and how to approach this conversation in a healthy, honoring, and playful way.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Or@l s*x is not off-limits in Christian marriage—it’s celebrated in Scripture
    • Mutual pleasure, trust, and safety are the foundation of any intimate exploration
    • It’s okay to talk about what you’re curious about—and even more okay to enjoy it
    • God’s design for s*x is richer, freer, and more beautiful than we’ve been taught to believe

    You don’t have to tiptoe around your desire. You don’t have to feel weird about wanting more. You’re allowed to explore, enjoy, and delight in the intimate gifts God designed for you and your spouse. So let’s break the silence, ditch the shame, and embrace a s*x life that’s sacred and satisfying.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 14: "Oh, Oh, Oh, Omazing®!"—Understanding Org@sms Without the Pressure [RTH Episode #27]
    2025/11/25

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Let’s talk about something we all wonder about but rarely feel safe to ask: org*sms. In today’s episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie are diving into Chapter 14 of Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire, and yes—they’re going there!

    Here’s the fun fact you didn’t know you needed: an orgasm is a lot like a sneeze. Seriously! It’s a reflex—not something you force, but something your body does when the right ingredients come together. And if you’ve ever wondered, “Wait… have I even had one?”—you are so not alone.

    Josh (Certified Christian S*x Therapist) and Cassie (S*x Educator & real-talk queen) are here to help you:

    • Understand what org*sms really are—and how they work
    • Learn what it means if you’re not sure you’ve had one
    • Discover how your mind, body, and heart all play a role in your pleasure
    • Break free from shame and pressure—and step into playful, grace-filled exploration with your spouse

    Because guess what? You're not broken. You’re just beginning the journey of understanding your body.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Org*sms are a reflex, not a performance
    • You’re not broken if you haven’t figured it out yet—you’re learning
    • God designed your body for pleasure—without shame
    • Omazing® intimacy is possible with patience, curiosity, and connection

    You don’t have to fake it. You don’t have to force it. And you definitely don’t have to figure it all out alone. Org*sm isn’t a goal to chase, it’s a gift to enjoy, explore, and receive. So take a deep breath, friend. You were made for pleasure, not pressure—and this journey can actually be Omazing®.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 13: "Imagine That"—How Your Mind Shapes Your S*xual Confidence [RTH Episode #26]
    2025/11/18

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Did you know that Jesus designed your imagination? Yep—your vivid, playful, sometimes awkward, and even steamy imagination is His idea. In today’s episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie (Christian s*x therapist & s*x educators) explore Chapter 13 of their recent book "Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire." Today, it’s all about the sacred power of your mind when it comes to intimacy.

    You weren’t created to live disjointed—body over here, spirit over there. You’re an full person. That means your s*xual experiences aren’t just physical—they’re emotional, spiritual, and deeply shaped by your brain.

    💡 Enter: your imagination.

    Modern neuroscience is catching up to what the psalmists and prophets knew all along: your thoughts have the power to shape your reality. And when it comes to s*xuality, how you think plays a big role in how you feel.

    In this episode, Josh & Cassie unpack:

    • The theology behind imagination and s*xual connection
    • What “taking your thoughts captive” really means (hint: it’s not about shutting them down)
    • How the purity culture misused Scripture and left many of us s*xually disconnected
    • How you can begin to renew your mind and reconnect with desire—God’s way.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Your imagination was designed by God and plays a key role in s*xual intimacy.
    • “Taking your thoughts captive” means aligning your mind with what’s true and good—not suppressing everything.
    • Purity culture often created shame instead of connection—but healing is possible.
    • You can retrain your brain and use imagination to strengthen desire, confidence, and closeness.

    God created you as a whole person—body, mind, heart, and soul—and your imagination is part of that wholeness. When you invite Him into your inner world, even your thoughts become a sacred space for connection, renewal, and joy. Your brain isn’t the enemy. It’s one of your greatest allies in building intimacy that’s emotionally alive, spiritually grounded, and yes—physically amazing.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 12: "Just Me, Myself, & Jesus" —Let’s Talk About Self-Exploration & Shame [R2H Episode #25]
    2025/11/11

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Today’s episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast might feel a little… touchy. We’re diving into Chapter 12 of our book Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire, and we’re talking about something that’s rarely discussed in church circles with truth, grace, or clarity: self-exploration, the "M" word, and s*xual shame.

    Depending on the community you grew up in, you may have heard one of two messages:

    1. “Self exploration is a normal curiosity—just something private we all explore.”
    2. OR... “Don’t touch that! It’s dirty, shameful, sinful—and God is watching!”

    If you grew up with the first message, count yourself lucky. But if you were in the second (like so many of us), this episode is for you.

    Josh & Cassie (Certified s*x therapist & s*x educators) bring gentle, honest clarity to a topic that's often wrapped in guilt and confusion. They’ll remind you that:

    • God created your body—including everything downstairs
    • If what you’re feeling is shame, fear, or disgust—it may not be Jesus talking
    • And you are completely normal for being curious about yourself!

    This episode is all about breaking off shame, healing your relationship with your own body, and learning to hear God’s voice—not fear’s voice—when it comes to your s*xuality to heal this part of your intimacy with your spouse.

    Key Takeaways:

    • What Scripture actually says—and doesn’t say—about self-exploration
    • Shame around s*xuality is often inherited, not Holy Spirit–inspired
    • Curiosity doesn’t disqualify you from holiness—it may be your first step toward healing
    • The difference between shame-based silence and Spirit-led curiosity

    If no one’s ever told you this, let us be the first: Your body is not a source of shame. It’s a gift from God, created with intention and purpose—including the parts designed for pleasure. It’s time to silence the lies, confront the guilt, and walk in the kind of freedom Jesus actually offers—one rooted in grace, truth, and joy.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 11: "(Unwanted) Pain Is NOT Sexy" -Finding Healing and Hope in the Bedroom [R2H Episode #24]
    2025/11/04

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Let’s talk about something tender, real, and far too common: painful s*x. In today’s episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie unpack Chapter 11 of their book, Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to S*xual Confidence & Desire, and they’re shining a compassionate light on what many women silently struggle with—unwanted pain during intimacy.

    Let’s clear this up first: some couples enjoy a little playful pain in the bedroom with full consent and enjoyment. That’s not what we’re talking about today. We're talking about pain that’s unwanted, uninvited, and unresolved—and how it slowly chips away at your confidence, connection, and desire.

    Here’s the truth:
    ✔ Pain during sex is common
    ✘ But it is not normal
    ✔ It is treatable—and healing is possible!

    In this episode, Josh and Cassie (Certified s*x therapist & s*x educators) discuss:

    • Why painful sex is not just “something you have to deal with”
    • How your brain creates s*xual aversions—and how to reverse them
    • What you can do at home to begin healing before seeking professional care
    • Encouragement from Josh & Cassie’s experience walking with hundreds of women toward freedom.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Pain during s*x is common but normal and never something you should ignore or push through
    • The longer pain is tolerated, the more likely it is to create emotional and neurological barriers to intimacy
    • Healing is possible—and you are not alone in this journey
    • You deserve a s*x life that is pain-free, confidence-filled, and full of desire

    Don’t pretend everything’s okay when it hurts. And remember: you don’t have to carry this pain alone. There is hope, there is help, and there is healing. Your body is not your enemy—it’s a beautiful part of God’s design, and it deserves to be treated with compassion and care. You are worthy of a s*x life filled with joy, connection, and zero pain.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 10: "Accelerators & Breaks" -Why You’re Turned On One Day and Off the Next [R2H Episode #23]
    2025/10/28

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! Ever wonder why some days you're totally ready for s*x with just one look from your spouse… and other days, even the idea feels like a chore? You’re not broken—you're just working with two powerful systems: your accelerator pedal and your brake pedal.

    In this episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie break down the concepts from Chapter 10 of their book Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire. You’ll learn how to recognize what’s revving your engine—and what’s slamming the brakes.

    The Accelerator Pedal includes things that turn you on—emotional connection, feeling desired, a flirty text, or a moment of tenderness.
    The Brake Pedal includes things that shut you down—stress, unresolved conflict, mental clutter, or feeling unseen.

    Both of these pedals are normal, natural, and deeply connected to how your nervous system and s*xuality work together. Understanding them gives you power to move forward without shame or pressure.

    In this episode, Josh (certified Christian s*x therapist) and Cassie discuss:

    • What activates your s*xual desire—and what inhibits it
    • Why it’s totally normal to feel “in the mood” some days and not others
    • How to work with your brakes and accelerators instead of fighting them
    • Practical tips to create a more supportive environment for intimacy

    Key Takeaways:

    • You have both an accelerator and a brake—and both are working all the time
    • Your turn-ons and turn-offs matter and are worth paying attention to
    • Intimacy isn’t just about timing—it’s about tuning into your whole self
    • You can increase connection (and confidence!) by managing your internal “pedals”

    Once you understand how your accelerator and brake pedals work, everything changes. You stop blaming yourself—or your spouse—and start creating the kind of emotional and physical environment where intimacy can actually thrive. It's not about being “in the mood” all the time. It’s about knowing how to find your rhythm and honor what your body and heart are telling you.

  • Feeling Sexy Ep. 9: "Secret Desires"—Understanding How S*xual Desire Really Works [R2H Episode #22]
    2025/10/21

    Send us a text

    Hey friend! When you think of s*xual desire, what comes to mind? If it’s a sudden, out-of-nowhere wave of horniness that feels like a chocolate craving—you're not wrong. That’s one form of desire… but it’s not the only one.

    In this episode of The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh & Cassie dive into Chapter 9 of their book Feeling Sexy: A Christian Woman’s Guide to Sexual Confidence & Desire, and introduce you to a powerful concept that changes everything: Receptive desire.

    While spontaneous desire often shows up like “I want s*x right now,” receptive desire is quieter, more slow to grow—and just as holy. It’s the willingness to lean in, say yes to connection, and allow intimacy to grow in the moment. And guess what? Receptive desire is not only normal—it’s more common than you think, especially for women (and lots of men too!).

    In this episode, Josh (certified Christian s*x therapist) and Cassie discuss:

    • The difference between spontaneous and receptive desire
    • Why both are equally valid—and equally important in marriage
    • How to recognize your own desire style and communicate it with your spouse
    • Why honoring your wiring can lead to more freedom, intimacy, and connection

    Whether your desire shows up loud and spontaneous or quiet and receptive, it’s all beautifully valid and part of how God wired you. Understanding your desire style—and your spouse’s—can bring so much clarity, compassion, and connection to your marriage.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Desire doesn’t have to be instant to be real
    • Receptive desire is relational, holy, and often overlooked
    • Your desire style might not match your spouse’s—and that’s okay
    • Intimacy grows when we learn to honor how God uniquely wired us

    Ready to tune in to your own desire with fresh understanding and freedom? This episode is your permission slip to embrace your s*xual design with confidence and clarity. 💖
