Today on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are thrilled to welcome back one of their favorite guests, Emily Nagoski! Emily is a sex and stress educator, researcher, activist, and an award-winning author, who has a brand new book: Come Together: The Science (and Art!) of Creating Lasting Sexual Connections! They discuss themes of Come Together by exploring topics such as spontaneous vs. responsive desire, how couples sustain sexual connection in long-term relationships, the concept of the "Emotional Floor Plan," and how to cultivate pleasure-favorable spaces. Emily explains the #1 thing that people don’t want when it comes to sex from her research, and the radical idea she holds for our world. Plus, Emily shares her experience writing a book about sex while simultaneously having zero interest in sex and how she used her own work for support. Tune in to find out what she is calling BS on and to gain insight, awareness, and action!
