Emily Nagoski on What Happy Couples Know That Others Don’t

This week, Emily Nagoski (THE Emily Nagoski ah) and I explore what makes pleasure thrive in relationships by looking at how we can build stronger, more fulfilling connections.

We also tackle questions like:

What are the ingredients to a satisfying long-term sexual relationship?

What if I don’t know what I like? How to experience pleasure?

Why do couples with great sex lives talk about it so openly?

And THEN in the Patreon extended version, we additionally discuss how to orgasm with a partner and whether or not you can ruin sensation with vibrator over-use. You don’t want to miss this one.

EMILY NAGOSKI is the award-winning author of the New York Times bestselling Come As You Are and Come Together, as well as The Come As You Are Workbook, and coauthor, with her sister, Amelia, of New York Times bestseller Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle. She earned an M.S. in counseling and a Ph.D. in health behavior, both from Indiana University, with clinical and research training at the Kinsey Institute. Now she combines sex education and stress education to teach women to live with confidence and joy inside their bodies. She lives in Massachusetts with two dogs, a cat, and a cartoonist.
