This conversation is going to make you think differently about this topic and inspire you to prioritize pleasure and connection in bed, no matter your age, #relationship status, or gender. And if you are saying, “This doesn’t apply to me,” or as my friend just said, “I’m in way worse than a drought! At this point, I’m a born-again virgin." No, you’re not. And this episode is for you too, because our expert says improving your solo #sex life is the first step. Dr. Emily claims that everything you have been taught or observed about sex is WRONG. Wait.
