Why does desire fade—and how do we get it back? In this episode, we sit down with Athena Gayle, Sex Expert at Arya, to explore how long-term couples can revive intimacy, increase desire, and communicate needs without awkwardness or pressure. We unpack how to escape “roommate mode,” redefine sex as connection instead of performance, and try simple, low-pressure practices that build real desire over time.
In this episode, we discuss:
• why routine kills desire in long-term relationships
• rebuilding intimacy with touch, play & presence
• using skin-to-skin hugs & shower embraces
• yes–no–maybe lists for aligned desires
• safe ways to ask for fantasies or kinks
• how Arya’s curated Scenes reduce mental load
• audio erotica, prompts & erotic personas
• planning sex without losing spontaneity
• approaching threesomes, consent & boundaries
• exploring roleplay & dominance safely
• using AI tools to build connection & confidence
Athena also explains how Arya’s intimacy platform helps couples initiate closeness, spark novelty, and communicate needs with clarity and confidence.
Whether you’re seeking more closeness, more novelty, or just less pressure in the bedroom, this conversation offers real, usable practices that deepen desire and connection.
