Sexual infidelity is one of the biggest issues in long-term relationships and failing to address it will only make the problem worse.

Most people find sexual communication difficult. It's easy to believe that we can’t do it because we just don’t have the necessary resources to do so. We understand the importance of communication, but how do we become more comfortable with it?

In this episode, Dr. Tara teaches us how to boost sexual communication comfort as she shares her personal journey from several monogamous relationships and unfulfilling sex to being a sexually powerful woman.

Dr. Tara is a tenured professor of relational and sexual communication at California State University Fullerton, an award-winning researcher, a relationship coach at luvbites.co, and a podcast host at Luvbites by Dr. Tara. She recently gave a TEDx Talk titled Become Sexually Powerful that highlights her 5,000-participant study examining factors that predict sexual satisfaction, and her journey from a sexually anxious girl from Thailand to a sexually confident woman.
