What were the books Flemming mentioned?
Hi Mimi! Here are the books she recommended. I hope they’re helpful.
The Women’s Anatomy of Arousal, by Sheri Winston
Great Sex: A Man’s Guide to the Secret Principles of Total Body Sex, by Michael Castleman
Relationship is such an important topic for as Pema Chodron says no matter where we are, we are always in relationship. One of the many things I enjoy about GB is that the relationship with the self is never overlooked for it reflects how we are with others.
I think the idea of a “breakup coach” is brilliant, and Dr. Bradford is obviously very good at her job. Her suggestions regarding social media and relationships, including the unfollow and unfriend realities, are based in common sense as well as compassion.
Dr. Megan’s sensitive and practical advice regarding touch and arousal once again remind that men and women are so different in this regard. Like the above listener, I appreciate her providing additional resources–both titles listed above–in addition to the ten “tantalizing” GB tips that will make any woman’s day.
August, your story of Humphrey the accountant is worthy of fine fiction! It has a O. Henry twist to it; what an unforgettable relationship story. I won’t say anymore as I do not want to ruin the surprise ending.
Another fine podcast and thanks to all.
