0:00.0	You are listening to You Are Not Broken, the only podcast that combines science, medicine, and psychology to re-educate your brain and help you live your best love life.
0:11.4	And I'm your host, board certified female urologist, Dr. Kelly Casperson.
0:16.3	Hey, everybody. I am so excited to be back. And today I am chatting with Andre Lazarus. And he is
0:22.2	a sacred, intimate, a surrogate partner, and a sex and intimacy guide. Thank you so much for coming on
0:28.3	and helping us all with all of our problems. It's a small thing you ask, but I'm happy to be here.
0:35.2	Right. All the problems for all the people. So like you were in high school and we filled out the form about what we wanted to be when we grew up,
0:42.3	and your form said, like, sex and intimacy guide on it? Yeah, no, I think I wanted to work with
0:47.2	dolphins, and I'm still holding out. So maybe it'll come, but no, actually, you could have talked to me 10 years ago and there's no way I thought I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing now.
0:59.4	No way. This was not like this came easy to me when I was 18.

1:18.7	10 years. I was in the Marine Corps. So I was serving and I was a communications officer.
1:25.6	I spent a few years in the Navy before that.
1:28.3	And then I left around 2015 from the military.
1:33.3	I went into executive protection, bodyguard duty,
1:37.3	and then I also went into tech as well.
1:39.3	So the work that I do today was kind of more of a part-time experience for me as I was building my acumen, as I was also feeling just more confidence in stepping into this work.
1:54.0	Because when we talk about sex, when we talk about anything having to do with human bodies coming together as one, there's still a lot
2:02.7	of taboo-niz around that. So I needed some time to find my voice, doing a lot of it kind of more
2:09.7	in the shadows. And individuals like yourself are helping me and other practitioners step out
2:15.7	and show everyone just how beautiful this work can be.
