In this episode, Dr. Aleida Heinz discusses how divorce can be an opportunity to examine how emotional connection has an impact on the sexual experience in relationships.  Dr. Heinz shares her own experience with her divorce and describes how she took the time to grieve the loss and do the work on herself so she could show up in a healthier way in her 2nd marriage, which ultimately led to a more satisfying sex life. She helps you do the same in this episode as well as in her book "Make Love 365 Times a Year: 7 Sex Secrets for a Passionate Love Life".
