Introduction
In Episode 74 of The Entrepreneur DNA, host Justin Colby welcomes Janelle Gordon, a renowned expert on enhancing personal and sexual lives, and the author of the insightful book, Unfck Your Sex Life*. This episode delves deep into the intersection of entrepreneurial hustle and intimate relationships, offering valuable perspectives for entrepreneurs striving to balance success with personal fulfillment.
The Importance of Sexual Intimacy for Entrepreneurs
Justin sets the stage by highlighting the intense, goal-oriented nature of entrepreneurs and how it often leads to neglecting personal relationships. He emphasizes the necessity of maintaining a healthy sex life to achieve the balanced life entrepreneurs aspire to.
Justin (00:56): "Unfuck your Sex life. Janelle Gordon. But let's talk about us entrepreneurs. We run very fast. We're heavily goal oriented."
Vision and Purpose in Men
Janelle discusses the foundational role of vision and purpose in men's lives, suggesting that without these, men can feel lost both personally and professionally. She introduces the concept of an archetypal structure with a higher power at the top, guiding men in their personal and business endeavors.
Janelle (02:33): "A man without a vision is lost. And in most men's purpose, there's sort of a triangle... a higher power God at the top."
Traditional vs. Modern Gender Roles
The conversation shifts to the evolving dynamics of gender roles in modern relationships. Janelle critiques the shift brought about by the feminist movement, where women gain financial independence, leading to a struggle for traditional male roles in relationships.
Janelle (04:48): "Traditional values were set in place because you're a successful entrepreneur... But now we have women who are making more money than you."
Impact of the Feminist Movement on Relationships
Janelle elaborates on how modern feminism has altered the traditional male-female dichotomy, causing friction as men strive to maintain their role as providers and protectors while women assert their independence.
Janelle (05:55): "The modern feminist movement has destroyed the feminine woman. They push the idea that women don’t need men."
The Need for Men to Feel Needed
Understanding the emotional impact, Janelle emphasizes that men derive a sense of identity and purpose from being needed in their relationships. The lack of this can lead to feelings of inadequacy and instability.
Janelle (06:06): "A man, it's really actually devastating to not be needed by his shakti, by his woman."
Open Communication and Mutual Support
Justin and Janelle discuss the importance of open communication in relationships. Justin shares his personal approach of supporting his wife’s choices, whether she opts to be a higher-earning professional or a stay-at-home mom, fostering mutual respect and understanding.
Justin (07:29): "Whatever you want to do, I'm going to go support that. If you want to be the powerful female and go work and make a bunch of money, I'm going to support that."
Balancing Business and Personal Life
The hectic lifestyle of entrepreneurs often leaves little room for cultivating intimacy. Janelle suggests strategic scheduling, such as maintaining a strict bedtime for children to carve out quality time for couples.
Justin (09:38): "We do it in a very good, strategic way, in my opinion, is because we always have a pretty strict bedtime for the kids."
Understanding Sexual Energy and Tantra
Janelle introduces the concepts of masculine (Shiva) and feminine (Shakti) energies, explaining their roles in sexual dynamics. She emphasizes the importance of balancing these energies to maintain sexual polarity and intimacy in relationships.
Janelle (11:24): "The masculine energy, we call that Shiva energy... The feminine, we call it Shakti."
Practical Advice for Enhancing Sex Life
Janelle provides actionable strategies for entrepreneurs to improve their sexual relationships:
-
Breath Work: Controlling breath helps manage arousal and prolong sexual performance.
Janelle (31:08): "Breath work is key."
-
Physical Conditioning: Just as entrepreneurs condition their businesses, conditioning the body enhances sexual stamina.

Janelle (32:37): "Remove meat from the body... your body is going to digest and assimilate your food quicker."
Enhancing Intimacy Through Emotional Connection
Janelle stresses that true intimacy goes beyond physical interactions. Building emotional connections by "fucking her in her heart" is essential for a fulfilling sexual relationship.
Janelle (22:11): "If you want your wife to fuck you more, you have to fuck her in her heart."
Conclusion
The episode concludes with Janelle encouraging listeners to engage deeply with their partners, emphasizing that financial success is hollow without a healthy, intimate relationship. Justin reinforces the importance of integrating these practices into daily life to achieve both business and personal fulfillment.
Justin (41:22): "Ask her questions. This is you on Instagram. Ask her questions. I know this is like a taboo conversation for most people, but if you don't know what you don't know, then you know you may not be able to have the wife that you want."
