Hello friends. Welcome back to another episode of Theology in the Rahm. I guess today is Shanti

Felthan who is a researcher and a writer. She has a graduate degree from Harvard University and

used to be an analyst on Wall Street before unexpectedly becoming a social researcher

and a bestselling author and popular speaker. Today she applies her analytical skills to investigating

eye-opening life-changing truths about relationships both at the home and in the workplace.

She is the author of several books, including the bestselling for women only. She's also written

the kindest challenge thriving in love and money and recently released the secrets of sex and

marriage, eight surprises that make all the difference. We were going to talk about this book,

but we got like we we we we'd offer a major rabbit trail at the very beginning on kind of debates

about how to even go talk about sex and some of the sensitivity around this really well sensitive

topic and especially as applies to even abuse in the church and how to respond to abuse in the

church. So that pretty much took our whole time. So I hope you enjoy the conversation. I had a

wonderful time talking to you and getting to know Shanti a bit more. So please welcome to the show

for the first time the one only Shanti Felthan.

All right Shanti good to see you again. We were up in Edmonton Canada a few years ago at a

dinner with a bunch of other people. So we barely kind of talked across the table. I you know it's

exactly well it was very cold if I remember incorrectly. It was like January or February in Edmonton.

Edmonton in January and yes it was no joke it was no joke. Well I appreciate your work over the

years. I mean you wrote four men only four women only which were were those your most famous books

first books. I mean definitely they're very widely read. How would you describe those books? Yeah.

Oh gosh the word famous. How about most well known? How about well-smelling? Yeah.

Well though yeah that kind of creeps me out a little bit. Yeah no for women only and for men only
