Sex is everywhere.
It shapes culture, relationships, health, identity, and how we connect, yet somehow it remains one of the hardest things for us to talk about honestly.
This week on ALLSMITH, Bryce sits down with Wendy Strgar, founder of Good Clean Love, author, entrepreneur, and longtime advocate for better conversations around sexual health, intimacy, and lasting love.
We explore why sex still carries so much discomfort and shame, what happens to desire in long-term relationships, how our bodies and relationships change with age, the influence of porn and modern culture, women’s sexual health, and why great intimacy might have far less to do with performance than we think.
This isn’t just a conversation about sex.
It’s a conversation about communication, curiosity, vulnerability, health, and learning how to love another human being well.

BIG IDEAS
Sex is everywhere. Honest conversations about it aren’t.
Falling in love happens. Staying connected takes practice.
Great intimacy isn’t simply physical. It’s built through curiosity, communication, safety, and presence.
Your partner isn’t responsible for understanding a part of you that you’ve never taken the time to understand yourself.
Maybe the goal isn’t staying the same together. It’s continuing to discover each other as you both change.
