Episode Overview
On this episode of the Sexology Podcast, I’m pleased to be joined by guest Jonathan Miller as we talk about how to have tough conversations when it comes to sex. Talking about sex and sexuality can be tricky for most people. Jonathan specializes in communication and speaks with me about how to tackle conversations such as how to open up a relationship, close a relationship, or reveal that you’ve slept with someone else.
Having open discussions about sex is hard. STIs, infidelity and more challenging topics can leave many people feeling stuck and they ultimately end up avoiding those conversations. During our conversation, Jonathan and I share tools to tackle these thorny subjects and explore other areas such as boundaries and making your partner feel heard and understood.
