The World’s First Sex Mattress Is Here

Emily Morse (0:00)

Can we talk about something that doesn't get nearly enough attention? How much our intimate health can change throughout our lives? Maybe you've noticed more dryness, irritation, or just discomfort during sex, or maybe things just don't feel the way they used to. And whether it's premenopause, or menopause, or postpartum changes, these things are incredibly common, but that doesn't mean you have to just ignore them. That's why I'm excited about something new from SkinGenuity called AIRS, Advanced Intimate Renewal Serum. And here's what's interesting. AIRS uses bioengineered growth factors and peptides designed to support intimate tissue health, hydration, and comfort. Growth factors are proteins that help our cells communicate, and they're a really exciting area of science. And AIRS is completely hormone-free. Each box comes with 12 single-use applicators, making it easy to incorporate into your intimate care routine. And what I love is that we're finally seeing more innovation focused on women's intimate health, because feeling comfortable in your body and enjoying intimacy and taking care of yourself shouldn't stop being priorities just because your hormones are changing. So if you've been noticing changes, this is something worth learning about. Check out SkinGenuity airs at shopsexwithemily.com/airs.

That's AIRS, shopsexwithemily.com/airs.

I'll put the link in the show notes too.

The bed is the main character in the bedroom. And where a lot of people are focused, you know, it's like the main character energy, it is our bed and it's the star. And to think like, wow, this is so important to actually have people have in touch. You're buying a mattress, maybe you're a new couple or, and you're like, this, choose one that's actually gonna be supportive of your overall life. You can be good partners to each other, because if you're not having great sex, because where you've studied all the impacts of not good mattresses could have on our sex life. But if you are like, we are investing in this, we're buying this, we are making a commitment to our intimate, our sexual life. I just think it's such a powerful thing to be able to like offer people.

Did you know that for every extra hour of sleep that women got, they were 14% more likely to have sex the next day? So maybe the secret to better sex isn't always doing more, maybe it's getting more sleep. We talk a lot about desire and hormones and stress and communication and all the things that make sex better. There's something we don't talk about nearly enough, the atmosphere we actually have sex in. My guest today has spent more than 25 years obsessing over what happens when the lights go out. We both obsess over it, but we do it a little bit differently. Jack Dell'Accio is a certified sleep coach and founder and CEO of Essentia. It's an organic mattress company that he started after his own family's health challenges and it made him rethink what we sleep on. He's worked with professional athletes to improve performance and recovery, but here's what got me interested. We know sleep affects our desire, our energy, and our sexual health, but how much do we really know about how much the mattress affects our sex lives? Jack is a sleep geek and I'm a sex geek, and we started asking some pretty interesting questions about what happens in bed and in the bedroom.

Jack, welcome to the podcast. I'm so glad to have you here today.

Jack Dell'Accio (3:40)

Very excited to be here.

Emily Morse (3:42)

Jack, this is your first sex podcast?

Jack Dell'Accio (3:44)

It is my first sex podcast.

I kind of feel it's like the proper evolution of this. I started with sleep and overcoming health challenges, then sleep when we came to performance, whether it be sports performance, and now it's pleasure and happiness and all that. So sex is the natural evolution of where I need to be.

Emily Morse (4:05)

Exactly.

Jack Dell'Accio (4:06)

This makes sense.

Emily Morse (4:07)

People, it's funny that sex is often the last thing that people have started to think about. I think it's changing now because sex is part of wellness and longevity, but I love that we get to have this conversation because, well, yeah, I'm obsessed with sex and you're obsessed with sleep. So this is perfect. But tell me this, how did you become so obsessed with sleep?
