1. Confidence and joy are the keys to a great sex life | Emily Nagoski | TEDxUniversityofNevada
Author of the NY Times bestselling book, ‘Come as You Are: The Surprising New Science that Will Transform Your Sex Life,’ Dr. Emily Nagoski presents the research behind two keys to sexual well-being — confidence and joy.
2. How couples can sustain a strong sexual connection for a lifetime
As a sex educator, Emily Nagoski is often asked: How do couples sustain a strong sexual connection over the long term? In this funny, insightful talk, she shares her answer — drawing on (somewhat surprising) research to reveal why some couples stop having sex while others keep up a connection for a lifetime.
3. The truth about unwanted arousal
Sex educator Emily Nagoski breaks down one of the most dangerous myths about sex and introduces us to the science behind arousal nonconcordance: when there’s a disconnect between physical response and the experience of pleasure and desire. Talking about such intimate, private moments can feel awkward or difficult, yet in this straightforward talk Nagoski urges all of us to share this crucial information with someone — judges, lawyers, partners, kids. “With every brave conversation we have, we make the world that little bit better,” says Nagoski.
6. Rethinking infidelity … a talk for anyone who has ever loved | Esther Perel
Infidelity is the ultimate betrayal. But does it have to be? Relationship therapist Esther Perel examines why people cheat, and unpacks why affairs are so traumatic: because they threaten our emotional security. In infidelity, she sees something unexpected — an expression of longing and loss. A must-watch for anyone who has ever cheated or been cheated on, or who simply wants a new framework for understanding relationships.
