I don't know what it was about this winter, but it seems people were struggling more than ever. It was coming out in every conversation as if they were so full of pain, that even unloading it on a stranger was preferrable to holding it inside. 

I don't mind. In fact I am an unexpected...

It's February. About 6 weeks into the new year and the rush of the holidays, and the sparkly hope of the new beginning has long faded, taken over by the reality of daily responsibilities. If you are one of the few who has made a promise to themselves to follow a dream, or a desire and is...

The orgasm gap is cultural, not biological.

What that means is that women’s orgasms aren’t more complicated than men’s, but we were made to believe that they are. 

Let’s Talk About Orgasm:

From textbooks to popular media, novels, erotica, porn and Hollywood, the...

Consider any area of your life. I mean anything. Do you feel that you are just right? Not too much, not too little, but just the perfect measure of enoughness?

If you are a woman raised in a patriarchal society, being enough may feel as attainable as becoming a Disney princess. Enoughness is like...

I am yet to meet a Woman, who has not been shamed, criticized or rejected for ...being a woman. And I don't even mean the overt hostility, violence, and oppression that women experience in some religious regimes. I mean women in the Western cultures, generally enjoying the privilege of...

I wanted it. I craved it. I was so jealous watching others who appeared as if they had it, only to find that when few years later they would engage in a bitter divorce, I would feel a secret satisfaction that I am not the only looser. 

I chased after it, as if it were a race. The...

When was the last time when you felt your own rich, deep, luscious, curvy, and un-constricted sensuality? When was the last time you ran your hand through your hair, not to fix it, but to feel the silky threads between your fingers? When was the last time you felt goosebumps at your own...

I talk to women about pain every day. As a clinician, I have a unique insight into women's bodies and their lives. We talk about the physical pain, which is usually why they come to see me. Where it is, how bad, it's history and unique qualities. But unlike mainstream approach, for me that is not...

I was what you might consider beautiful. So much so, that I had a successful career as an international model. I was shy and insecure, but this was some external validation that as much as I felt worthless most of my life, at least I had my looks. 

From early on I received messages from...

Work/life balance is a complete nonsense.

When I was learning English in Paris, and I came across the phrase, it gave me a pause. Prone to literal translations, I wondered: Are you dead when you are working? Shouldn't it be a work/home balance? 

Like "raining cats and dogs", I was told...

I did my best to stay in the lane. I took classes, learned theories, applied behavioral science, watched the best of the best, and emulated what I saw. 

I taught what I knew and got well deserved pats on the back, that would temporarily make me feel like what I was doing was making a...

I don’t know about you, but I don’t like pain.

Unless of course, I do. When it serves me and I can use it to prove to the world that I am tough, that I can overcome, and that I am worthy of their admiration and respect. And awe. Awe would be nice.

You see, I grew up in a pretty toxic...
