Q&A Quickie: Love without Lust
Show Notes

We have two excellent questions to discuss on today’s episode. The first comes from a stroke survivor who is feeling frustrated and sad that her partner is uninterested in sex since her stroke despite her incredible recovery. I love this question because there are so many great lessons on adaptability that I’m going to be chatting about. Whether you have a chronic illness or not, adaptability is one of the most important sexual skills, so stay tuned. Then we’ll turn our attention to a woman who finds it impossible to reach climax when she has sex with her boyfriend. Listen to hear what’s going on and my advice on what she should do.
