Description

Most New Year’s resolutions fail, but it doesn’t have to be this way. In this episode, we’re going to explore how to set sexy goals that actually stick. Learn how to turn intention into intimacy and make this your best year yet for connection and pleasure, whether you’re in a relationship or flying solo.


My guest is Ashley Weller. She is a Human Sexuality and Health Psychology Professor at Chapman University in Southern California. Ashley also has a podcast called What’s Your Position that tackles issues surrounding sexuality, relationships, life, and love from a comedic yet educational point of view.


Some of the specific topics we explore in this episode include:



  • What distinguishes resolutions that actually work from those that don’t?

  • What are some resolutions that can improve the relationship you have with yourself?

  • What are some good resolutions to consider for better sex with a partner?

  • How can we resolve to make sex more of a priority in our lives?


You can check out What’s Your Position here.
