    Break the Cycle: Sexual Revolution with the Intimacy Doc, Dr. Catalina Lawsin

    Break the Cycle: Sexual Revolution with the Intimacy Doc, Dr. Catalina Lawsin

    In this episode, we break the cycle of women’s sexual health with licensed psychologist Dr. Catalina!

    We discuss how sex is related to psychology and how our sexual health affects our mental health. We also dive into the difference between sex and intimacy and answer the age-old question: Can we have great sex without intimacy?



    Listen to Today’s Episode to Learn About:

    -living life with pleasure and desire

    -asexuals and sex

    -the work is done outside the bedroom

    -the scary notion of being in the moment

    -don’t think, feel

    -difference between sex and intimacy

    -can you have great sex without intimacy

    -choice is power

    -extremism

    -what makes great sex great?

    -why is sex such a taboo topic?

    -listener questions



    WHO IS DR. CATALINA?

    Great sex & intimacy is your absolute birthright. As a licensed psychologist for over 20+ years, I’ve worked with individuals affected by the big guns – cancer, death and dying. Through this work, I witnessed the one key factor that motivates one to keep on living – relationships. Relationships are essential to who we are and how we experience life. Unfortunately, sometimes relationships aren’t easy and sex can suck. I help visionaries who believe they deserve great sex & intimacy to experience ecstasy without settling for sexless relationships integrating neuroscience, attachment and tantra.

Value Packed Info About Self-Sabotage!

So happy your friend and coach Mish spoke about the complexity of self-sabotage, and that it has nothing to do with your willpower. Also appreciate the info about Fear of Failure as a sign of sabotage. That limitation is legit! Identifying how you feel and re-framing self-limiting beliefs is key! Thanks again for another great episode!
