So many of us struggle with intimacy and sexual satisfaction — often because we don’t fully understand our bodies or how pleasure really works.

In this eye-opening and deeply empowering conversation, host Mel Histon, sits down with leading sex therapist, Gabrielle Lawrie, to dive into the most common misconceptions about sex, intimacy, and connection — and why so many people struggle without ever seeking support.

Gabrielle breaks down the science of arousal, and why so many people struggle with sexual satisfaction—not because anything is “wrong” with them, but because they were never given proper sexual education in the first place.

We explore the physical and psychological aspects of sexual health, unpack the myths that cause frustration in the bedroom, and share practical insights couples can use to deepen intimacy, improve communication, and truly understand each other’s needs.

Whether you’re in a relationship, single, curious, or on your own journey of self-discovery, this episode will help you reconnect to your body, your pleasure, and your power.
