0:00.0	Welcome to the You Are Not Broken Podcast.
0:06.0	I'm your host, Dr. Kelly Casperson, a board-certified jurologist, thought leader, and conversation starter on midlife living, hormones, and sexuality.
0:16.0	Enjoy the show.
0:18.0	Hey everybody, welcome back to the You Are Not Broken podcast. I have my friend
0:21.8	Juliana Hauser on today, and we're going to talk about her new book that's coming out. Welcome.
0:27.1	Thank you. It's so good to be back. When's the new book come out? September 23rd. September 23rd.

1:42.3	difference. You have to believe that
1:45.2	sexuality is a necessity and not a luxury. And then you have to have the bravery to have curiosity
