You feel safe with your partner. You love them.

But when it comes to sex… your body goes quiet.

In this powerful episode, we explore why so many high-functioning women shut down during intimacy, even in loving, secure relationships. This isn’t about dysfunction. It’s about deep, unseen layers of conditioning, survival, and internalised pressure.

We’ll unpack the freeze response through a feminine lens, revealing how your body may be protecting you from past narratives, over-responsibility, and suppressed desires.

You’ll learn how to identify the signs of shutdown (they're not always obvious), turn judgment into insight, and begin the process of reclaiming your pleasure, voice, and erotic power.

This episode goes beyond the bedroom – because where you're withholding in sex, you're likely withholding in business, leadership, and life.

Inside This Episode, You’ll Discover:

💥 Why sexual shutdown happens – even in safe, loving relationships
💥 The hidden impact of societal conditioning on female desire
💥 How the nervous system responds during intimacy – and how to work with it
💥 Tools to reconnect to your body when it’s gone into freeze
💥 How to stop shrinking, people-pleasing, or performing in bed
💥 What to do when your desires feel too big, too risky, or too unclear
💥 A fresh framework for reclaiming pleasure, intimacy, and power

LINKS: Ready to go deeper? If you want the lived reality of being on the other side of shutdown, freeze, avoidance and withholding in the bedroom, I want to invite you to my newest private program.

I've expertly designed this pathway for the woman who leads everywhere else. And whose next edge is leading herself in the unguarded moments that matter most.

With my direct support, this is how you move out of withholding so that you can step into the next era of power, pleasure, and aliveness that's been waiting for you to claim. 

The first step is to Unleash Your Potency. This is the private session designed to awaken your erotic power and reconnect you to what turns you on—from the inside out. Go to www.laurenwhite.com.au/session to make it happen.

After more than a decade as a sexologist & business mentor, I’ve seen one truth rise above all…How fully you express yourself in your body and intimacy directly influences how powerfully you lead in business.

Because the woman who feels pleasure deeply, speaks her truth unapologetically, and owns her erotic desires – is the same woman who sells with ease, commands high-level clients and attracts the success and wealth that makes her truly rich.

I’m your host, Lauren White, and I’m here to reveal the hidden threads between your body, bedroom, and your business.

Each week, we dive into the unspoken dynamics secretly driving your sales, your confidence and your ability to be fully seen. This is where you reclaim your sovereignty, your sensuality, and your voice so you don’t just succeed.

You dominate.
