Listen Later

Before she was America’s most beloved sex therapist, Dr. Ruth Westheimer survived the Holocaust, trained as a sniper, and earned her doctorate in education. In this episode, we dive into the fascinating and unexpected journey of Dr. Ruth—from a childhood shattered by war to her rise as a cultural icon who changed the conversation around sex, pleasure, and relationships.

With her unmistakable voice, bold candor, and boundless enthusiasm, Dr. Ruth not only broke taboos—she built a legacy. Tune in as we explore how a 4’7” powerhouse helped generations feel more confident and connected in the bedroom and beyond.
