In this episode I explore procrastination -- the thing you avoid most is usually the same thing you need to address most. For me this includes all kinds of things, including the mess of digital photo…

You're taught that good people accept everyone. That doesn't work! Otherwise we'd all be a bunch of Burning Man-going, Kumbaya singing bisexuals. I share my experience dating a wonderful man whose dr…

The minute women become mothers they often shut down sexually. It's no wonder - women are expected to be EITHER the Madonna or the whore. There are few (if any?) examples of sexually fulfilled mother…
