You love your partner — but sometimes, you’re just tired.

In this episode of Do You Feel That?, we talk about what really happens when life, work, and exhaustion get in the way of intimacy. From mental load and stress to the myth that desire should always come first, we unpack why being “too tired” isn’t a sign of disconnection — it’s an opportunity to redefine what intimacy looks like.

We share practical ways to stay close even when energy is low: from micro moments of connection to the idea of responsive desire (that spark that shows up after you start). You’ll also hear how we handle those nights when one of us wants closeness and the other wants sleep — and why sometimes the sexiest thing you can do is rest together.

If you’ve ever wondered how to keep your connection alive when you’re running on fumes, this episode will help you slow down and reconnect without pressure.
