    2026/08/05 | 42 mins.
    Send us Fan Mail
    What if the woman you're with isn't "low libido" or "vanilla" at all?
    What if she's spent her entire life being taught that wanting sex, enjoying pleasure, or expressing desire makes her a "bad woman"?
    In this eye-opening conversation, I'm joined by sexologist and researcher Chanelle Jolly Marshall to unpack the hidden cultural conditioning that keeps so many women disconnected from their sexuality—and how it quietly impacts relationships, desire, intimacy, and pleasure.
    We dive into:
    Why so many women struggle to access their desire
    The "Good Girl" trap and the shame surrounding female sexuality
    How generational messages about sex shape your relationships today
    Why some women feel guilty for wanting adventurous or passionate sex
    Practical tools to reconnect with your body, communicate with your partner, and reclaim pleasure
    Whether you're a woman trying to understand your own relationship with desire or a partner wondering why intimacy feels difficult, this episode offers compassionate, research-backed insights that can change the way you think about sex forever.
    💬 I'd love to hear from you: What's one message about sex you were taught growing up that you're still unlearning? Let me know in the comments.

    2026/08/03 | 17 mins.
    Send us Fan Mail
    Almost every woman has a kinky side she's never shown you — not because she doesn't trust you, but because she's waiting to find out if it's safe. This is the cheat sheet for using your words to unlock her fantasies.
    What you'll learn:
     ✔ The opener that gets her to share the fantasy she's never said out loud
     ✔ Why "what if" is the most powerful two-word phrase for unlocking her desires
     ✔ Why feeling understood — not the filthiest line — is what actually turns her on
     ✔ Exactly what to say once you're in bed so she feels it twice

    She Built an AI Lover to Heal. Then Had the Best Sex of Her Life

    What if AI could actually help you heal your sex life — and have the best sex of your life on the other side?
    Women recovering from sexual trauma, bad relationships, and years of performing instead of feeling are turning to AI sexual companions — and what's happening is not what anyone expected. Today's guest didn't just use one. She built one. Morgan Hewett — two-time founder, former Meta, Harvard Business School grad, and founder and CEO of Devin — joins me to break down what these companions actually are, why women are turning to them, and what it does for their real sex lives with real partners.
    In this episode:
    What an AI sexual companion actually is — and how it's different from a toy
    Why removing performance, faking, and pressure is uniquely healing for trauma survivors
    What women discover about their own bodies with no one else in the room
    What changes when she goes back to a human partner knowing exactly what she wants
    The takeaway you can use tonight — with or without the tech

This is the five-move reset that gets you out of your head and back into your body, tonight.
    What you'll learn:
     ✔ How to crowd out the anxious thoughts instead of fighting them

    How to Get Her Wet Again: A Gynecologist's Fix for Midlife Sex

    2026/07/22 | 47 mins.
    Send us Fan Mail
    She starts avoiding sex. He takes it personally. Nobody says a word. That silence has a name — the Bedroom Gap — and the gynecologist who coined the term is here with the fix.
    Dr. Maria Sophocles — board-certified gynecologist with 30 years in menopause and female sexual health, author of The Bedroom Gap, and TED speaker with 1.3M+ views — breaks down exactly what's happening in her body, why his fix (the pill) made her problem worse, and how to bring pleasure back at any age.
    In this episode:
    What menopause actually does to the vagina — and why sex starts to hurt
    The signs she's suffering in silence (and how to open the conversation without blame)
    The estrogen cancer myth that's been disproven — and the 30% stat nobody's heard
    Vaginal estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone: what they do and who they're for
    The five M's: massage, media, masturbation, mindfulness, and medications
    Why sex is the fifth pillar of health
