Dr. Emily Nagoski on Sex, Long Term Relationships, and Depression

Sex is not always an easy topic to discuss. Issues like how to
get what you want, how to make sure your partner is getting what
they want, these are delicate conversations and often
intimidating ones as well. Add in issues like depression and
anxiety for one or more of the people involved and it becomes
more complex still. Fortunately, we have Dr. Emily Nagoski with
us who is an expert on sex and how to talk about it. She’s the
author of the new book, Come Together: The Science (and Art!) of
Creating Lasting Sexual Connections and she’s here to offer some
practical, workable advice.
