Our listener's question is right up our alley (tee hee), and Amy is in her element sharing some useful tips to help understand how desire works, why it ebbs and flows, and how brakes and accelerators are relevant.

It's a long one—but it's what we do with it that counts! Find out what songs we prescribe our frustrated listener. You might even get some new suggestions for your sexy time playlist.

This ep does delve into more adult themes, so keep it for a kid-free listen.
