Summary

Do sex and intimacy need security or mystery to ignite the flame? That is the question we are exploring in today's show based on the work of Dr. Barry McCarthy. Join George and Laurie as they get curious exploring the need for security to have sexual novelty or if mystery and anticipation increase desire. Either outcome is going to get your wheels spinning and we hope you invite your partner to a thrilling conversation to cross this bridge. Our hosts remind listeners that sexual creativity and risk will be more successful if there is a designed conversation. It is important to be intentional and make a suggestion to your partner, and be open minded to their feedback. We make a clear distinction between this conversation and one that is pressure filled. From this episode you will take away how to design this conversation, taking in feedback and how to bring up taking new sexual risks together. Keep it hot, y'all! Learn more about your ad choices.
