About this listen

She's the one who remembers birthdays and keeps the group text alive. He's the guy who handles the money and fixes what's broken.

They look like opposite types, but they suffer the same affliction: performance instead of presence.

In this episode of Sex IRL, Stacey digs into how the roles we play (think: the selfless woman or the endlessly capable man) keep us hidden.

These archetypes don’t just show up in our daily lives. They follow us into the bedroom. And when your personality becomes a performance, intimacy flatlines.

In this conversation, we explore:

  • How high-functioning roles kill real intimacy

  • Why performing desire (or satisfaction) makes things worse

  • What it actually takes to feel seen, known, and wanted

  • One question that could shift everything

Next week: Are you really serving your partner's pleasure? Or just your ego? It's gonna be spicy.
