#130 What Happens to Sex and Intimacy After Aphasia

What happens to sex when aphasia takes away your words? Is sex the same as intimacy? And can intimacy survive or even grow when communication feels impossible?

In this episode, we explore the continuum of intimacy and how couples can rebuild connection after aphasia. Whether it’s emotional closeness, physical touch, or shared activities, intimacy isn’t all-or-nothing – it’s about taking small, meaningful steps forward.
