This is such a very special episode!  Today you are going to hear Tess' Cancer Story and her work as an OT, Sexuality and Cancer Specialist and how she created ConnectAble Therapies.  To me, this is such an important episode for you to listen to as well as the topic of connection and intimacy.  Tess is the founder of ConnectAble Therapies which is a Melbourne-based occupational therapy consulting service focusing on sexuality, intimacy, arousal, communication and partner dynamics.  She work with patients to help patients (individuals and couples) to help get their libido back, help with body image, fatigue and so much more.  This episode you will learn SOOOOO much, I know I did.  A lot of the subject matter can be uncomfortable to talk about or even think about and I feel that this episode and Tess helps make it a safe space to start to explore connection and intimacy.  Take home message for this episode, there is nothing broken about you....you are normal!
