Sex Recession? Janet McGeever speaks with Tess and Craig about their SBS insight appearance

Can emotional intimacy be the missing piece in today's conversation about sex? Janet McGeever speaks with Tess and Craig, who appear on the SBS Insight episode 'Sex Recession?', to explore why so many couples are longing for deeper connection rather than simply more sex. Craig and Tess share how attending The Making Love Retreat three years ago completely transformed their relationship. Before the retreat, intimacy had become surrounded by pressure, expectations and the unspoken stress of wondering when or how sex would happen. Today, they have a very different experience. Instead of chasing sex, they prioritise emotional connection, presence and intimacy in everyday life. They talk openly about how learning to be fully present with each other, without needing anything to happen, has created a more fulfilling, relaxed and authentic relationship. In this interview, we discuss: Why emotional intimacy is becoming more important than sexual performance. What the SBS Insight 'Sex Recession?' episode revealed about modern relationships. The challenges younger generations face with dating, technology and the impact of the Me Too movement. How presence, eye contact and removing expectations can transform intimacy. Why creating safety and connection first often leads to a richer and more satisfying love life. How these practices have positively influenced every area of Craig and Tess's lives - not just their relationship. If you're in a long-term relationship and feel like you've become more like friends than lovers, this conversation offers hope that there is another way.
