The age of social media has ushered in a different kind of connection. But it seems that more and more people are feeling lonely and isolated, even while being perpetually plugged-in 24-7-365.

Now more than ever, people are craving intimacy and closeness. The desire to be witnessed perfumes the air like oxygen. The craving for a safe space to get emotionally, physically, and sexually naked is becoming ravenous. Yet and still you can cut the guarded, defensive, and over-protective energy with a butter knife, on any given day, just about anywhere.

Biba Atta, my most popular guest, is back! She also happens to be one of my closest sister-friends. And we are chatting about the intimacy crisis and all the things…

In this episode, we explore:

 The luxury of being intimate

The conundrum of joy

Decriminalizing sex work

 The importance of tribe
