You love your husband, but deep down, something’s off. You feel disconnected, exhausted, and maybe even a little numb. You keep saying you're tired… but your heart knows there’s more.

🔥 Episode Summary:
In this bold and tender third installment of the “Naked and Unashamed” series, Michelle Castro gets raw about something many Christian wives quietly wrestle with: low desire and intimacy avoidance. If you’ve ever wondered, “What’s wrong with me?” when it comes to sex and connection in your marriage—this mini-sode will speak straight to your soul.

Michelle gently challenges the lie that exhaustion is the end of the story. She reminds us that healing isn’t found in avoidance but in honest exploration—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. And she powerfully reframes desire as a God-given gift, not a source of shame. No more survival-mode marriage. It’s time to go deeper.
