Hello darling,


I often say: the best first step to improve your intimacy (and life) isn’t to learn new moves; it’s to get to know yourself better.


If you’ve ever thought to yourself…


  • Why does relaxing feel impossible, even when nothing's technically wrong?

  • Why can’t I tell what I actually want anymore?

  • Where did my desire go, and is it ever coming back?

  • Why does my body sometimes feel like it's fighting against me?


…then you’re in the right place.


Caity Wilkinson lays in bathtub of pillows, with text overlay "Before you try to fix your body... learn to understand what it's trying to tell you."

Over the years, my co-host Angela and I have covered so many of these questions on our podcast, Quickies with Angela & Caity. 


Today, I wanted to round up some of the most important advice that I think every woman should have in her back pocket.


Whether you’re trying to deepen or reconnect with your pleasure, communicate better with a partner, or simply understand your body, these episodes are a great place to start. 


I recommend beginning with whichever one speaks to you first.



🎙️ Why Quickies Don’t Work for Women (And What To Do Instead)


Most women don’t experience arousal like a light switch. We need time, safety, connection, and just the right conditions to warm all the way up. And it should take a lot longer than you might think!


In this episode, we talk about why rushed intimacy (the same kind that does tend to work for men) can leave women feeling unsatisfied - and what to do differently to make a it feel great for you, too.


Fun fact! Our podcast is named after this episode!



🎙️ Why Women Don’t Relax During Intimacy


Ever wonder why your body doesn't fully relax during intimacy, even when you love and trust your partner?


In this episode, we explore the connection between your nervous system, emotional safety, and sexual desire, and why removing pressure is often more powerful than trying harder to relax.



🎙️ Here’s Why You Don’t Know What You Want in Bed


A lot of women struggle to identify their desires, let alone communicate them.


This episode explores why knowing what you want can feel surprisingly complicated, and how building a stronger connection with yourself can make intimacy so much more fulfilling.



🎙️ When Your Body Holds Tension Instead of Pleasure


Sometimes the things we learn to do to climax can actually create more tension in the body.


In this episode, we talk about why some women develop a ‘clenching’ pattern, and how to create a softer, more relaxed experience that feels better overall.



🎙️ What Does Arousal Actually Feel Like for Women?


Women's arousal often begins long before physical touch. It starts with feeling mentally and emotionally connected, then gradually builds in the body.


In this episode, we explore why warming up matters, why rushing usually works against desire, and how slowing down can lead to a much more enjoyable experience.



🎙️ 3 Pleasure Tips Every Woman Should Know


Many of us were taught to push through discomfort, rush through intimacy, and ignore what our bodies are trying to tell us. We are DONE doing all that. No more!


This episode explores three simple practices that can help you reconnect with your body's signals to make intimacy way more fun. As it should be!



🎙️ The Emotional Power of Breast Massage


This episode isn’t just about how amazing this massage feels, physically. This is also a fantastic way to connect with yourself emotionally, deepen your relationship with your body, and grow your self-love.




I hope these episodes give you a fresh perspective and help you understand yourself in a new way.


Remember: your desire isn't something to force. It's something for you to study, get to know, and allow to blossom naturally… one honest question (and maybe one breast massage) at a time. 


Audibly yours, Caity


P.S. - I made two freebies for you! Both are quick (about 10 minutes) self-assessments to explore what’s really been going on with your desire lately, if you’ve noticed a drop from where you used to be:
