0:00.0	Hey everybody, it's Kelly. Welcome back to the You Are Not Broken podcast. This is a cool question
0:05.4	and answer session that I did during Taboo's office hours. If you've never heard of Taboo,
0:10.5	it's a very cool company looking at midlife and menopause sexual wellness. Natalie is the CEO,
0:16.1	and she's amazing, and she does these office hours where she had me on. And today's office hours, we're talking about
0:22.2	the brain and sex. And it's just so good. She kindly gave me the recording to play here, so I
0:28.0	really hope you enjoy. Before we get started, I wanted to remind you, I am holding my first ever
0:33.1	amazing Sedona retreat, March 22nd through 25th in Sedona, Arizona. I'm very excited. It's going to be
0:42.3	relaxing and we're going to work on our mind and we're going to work on our body and we're going
0:47.1	to work on our goals and we're going to work on understanding if hormones are right for you.
0:51.5	And we're going to work on how to prescribe hormones for all of the

1:07.9	Also, I have some gifts for the next three people who sign up. So, oh, you also get a
1:12.8	signed copy of my book, which is currently off the freaking market because it's going to be
1:17.7	republished. What is that? Is that the second edition? Is that what that means? Likely September
1:25.3	2024. So you currently can't get my book, but you can if you come hang out with me
1:32.5	in the Sedona retreat. So sign up for that. Go to ascend retreats or DM me on Instagram,
