    The Chemistry of Commitment Part 3: Why Modern Hookup Culture Challenges the Ancient Brain | Sex 101

    Sex 101, in its third season, features “The Chemistry of Commitment: Why the Modern Hookup Fails the Ancient Brain, Part 3.” In this third installment, we continue exploring the complex intersection of sex, attachment, attraction, intimacy, and commitment in the modern dating world. Human relationships have changed dramatically, but the biological systems involved in bonding and attachment developed over a much longer evolutionary timeline. What happens when dating apps, casual encounters, endless choices, and rapidly changing relationship expectations interact with brains that still form powerful emotional and social bonds? This episode examines the roles associated with dopamine, oxytocin, reward, desire, attachment, novelty, and emotional connection, while separating popular claims about “brain chemistry” from what relationship science can actually support. We also explore why two people can experience the same intimate encounter very differently, why physical attraction does not automatically produce emotional compatibility, and why communication and expectations matter when navigating casual or committed relationships. Part 3 goes beyond asking whether hookup culture is simply “good” or “bad.” Instead, it asks a deeper question: Are modern relationship structures always compatible with what individuals emotionally and psychologically need from intimacy? Join Sex 101 as we continue examining the chemistry of commitment and the complicated relationship between our ancient biology and modern romantic lives. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Breaking the Shame Around Sex: Building Intimacy Through Honest Conversation with Keri Green

    Keri Green is a clinical sex therapist and licensed marriage and family therapist with more than 20 years of experience supporting children, teenagers, adults, couples, and families. Throughout her career, she discovered that her deepest passion lies in helping adults and couples navigate relationships, intimacy, desire, pleasure, vulnerability, and emotional connection. This calling ultimately inspired her to transform her private practice and dedicate it entirely to sex therapy. Keri believes everyone deserves the opportunity to feel comfortable discussing sex and sexuality without fear, embarrassment, or shame. She also emphasizes the importance of helping people develop greater confidence and comfort within their own bodies. Her work provides a safe, compassionate environment for adults and couples who have questions about their sexuality, are healing from trauma, or want to communicate more openly and honestly with their partners. Whether she is supporting someone in a new relationship or a couple who has shared decades together, Keri helps people replace silence and discomfort with understanding, trust, and genuine connection. Her approach encourages individuals to explore their needs, express their feelings, and build healthier intimate relationships at a pace that feels safe for them. By challenging the taboos surrounding sexuality, she reminds us that healing and deeper intimacy become possible when people feel heard, respected, and accepted. As Keri powerfully explains, everything starts with a conversation. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
