Purchase Fred Diamond's best-sellers Love, Hope, Lyme: What Family Members, Partners, and Friends Who Love a Chronic Lyme Survivor Need to Know and Insights for Sales Game Changers now! Today's show featured an interview with Shari Begun, VP of Sales, IOT and Consumer, at Renesas Electronics. She is a member of Chief. The interview was conducted by Gina Stracuzzi, IES Women in Sales Program Director.  Read more about the PWISE designation and program here. SHARI'S ADVICE:  “A lot of people talk about their three to five-year plan at your customer or for yourself. I would say dream bigger than that. I would say look out, and for me, I say, “Where do I want to retire?” For someone earlier in their career, maybe it's, “Where do I want this customer to be in 10 years?” Then back it up. A lot of times when you look at the smaller picture, you don't dream as big. Think about it that way and then back up what you need to do.  

Flashes of brilliance pop like paparazzi as Susan rolls out one relationship epiphany after another. When she describes how love and intimacy can transcend what media portrays, you see how you can have way more intimacy and pleasure than you've been getting.   A self-proclaimed "Orgasmanaut..."

Recommending regenerative therapies that keep your libido and desire thrumming with life force because sex is good for you.   Moreover, Susan's superpower is courage. She takes a lionhearted stand for your human right to pleasurable connection... And the willingness to get nerdy on anatomy, detailed about sex skills, and science-driven on sex drive to achieve this outcome for everyone whose lives she touches.   Her straight-talking, fearless approach is rooted in her personal experience of watching her sex life wither while she and her husband pursued dynamic careers. When their relationship hit a crisis point, the couple made a fierce commitment to do whatever it took to keep their family together and revive her drive. They brought their marriage-saving experiences to the world as online programs.    Today, Susan and Tim have the kind of dream relationship most people long since stopped believing is even possible—until they discover Susan's teachings.   "Seeing how you two interact gives me hope that a passionate relationship IS possible for me too."   A lifelong entrepreneur, Susan is CEO of two companies.

The 20's blood flow supplement, libido vitamins, and sexual energy bars⸺FLOW and DESIRE⸺make the "what to choose" dilemma a no-brainer by providing the just-right balance of vitamins and botanicals to deliver noticeable results.   Through Personal Life Media and her Better Lover brand, founded in 2006, Susan has authored and published 44 books and programs, including Relationship Magic, Revive Her Drive, The Steamy Sex Ed®️ Video Collection, and her Amazon #1 International Bestseller, Sexual Soulmates: The Six Essentials for Connected Sex.

I have made it my mission to aid anyone who wants the kind of lovemaking that improves with age."   She and her husband split their time between their California homes on Mt. Tamalpais in Mill Valley and their cozy beach house in Encinitas, with occasional trips to far-off lands to visit their globe-trotting daughter.   ----------------------------- Susan S.

In today's episode of The Women's Vibrancy Code, Maraya is joined by renowned intimacy wellness expert Susan Bratton to discuss female libido on a deep level. In our society, talking openly about feminine sexual desire - and sexual hesitancies - is often looked on as taboo. However, sex from a patriarchal standpoint is often celebrated. That leaves many women lost and feeling disconnected, especially when they are experiencing low bouts of libido. It's possible to experience passion and healthy intimacy at any age for women, and a lot of the work of uncovering intimacy disconnections comes from a variety of places: past trauma, physical pain, a lack of understanding of a woman's own anatomy, lack of supplements, etc. By speaking frankly and openly about sex both anatomically and intellectually, this episode helps get to the heart of reclaiming libido at any age. IN THIS EPISODE: [04:45] The different aspects of libido [09:37] How female and male sexual anatomy are similar - and how they're different [21:37] Understanding how different aspects of sexuality education work together [24:07] Techniques, schools of thought and supplements for women to regain lost libido KEY TAKEAWAYS: The feminine experience with sex can be quite different from the patriarchal perspective, leaving many women to suffer through lost libido or uncomfortable sex in silence. But by destigmatizing the topic and by looking at sex and its associated issues as anatomical and psychological, we can get to the heart of how to master powerful, healthy and pleasurable libido as women at any age.

The two channels that run down the penis, the corpus cavernosum and the corpus spongiosum, those are erectile tissue. Those are the chambers that fill up with blood to give a man an erection. Those chambers are in our clitoris. So, we have a clitoral head, a clitoral shaft, so we actually have a shaft, the glans is like the tip of the penis, the shaft is like the shaft of the penis. So, a woman actually achieves a clitoral erection given enough massaging or oral pleasuring, or lovemaking. And then, the clitoris has two little arms that drape over the entrance to the vagina. That’s called the introitus, the entrance to the vagina. And then it has two plump bags that are the legs of the clitoris, that are called the vestibular bulbs, that are actually under the pubic hair on each side of the opening to the vagina. And that whole structure is the erectile tissue of her clitoral structure that needs to get filled with blood. Then she has a urethral sponge. We have an extruded little tube that goes down the urethral outlet, where your urine comes from your bladder and exits out of your vulva, between your clitoris and the opening to your vagina. That’s an exit. There’s a tube that runs, a fluffy tube of erectile tissue there. That’s what people call the G-spot. You can get to it from the outside, and you can get to it from the inside of the vaginal canal. And then there’s another sponge, called the perineal sponge, that’s located between the rectum and the vagina, those two tubes are parallel up inside her, and there’s a spongy tissue between them. All of that’s erectile tissue. You only see half of a man’s shaft. There’s 50 percent of his penile tissue that’s buried up inside him.

It’s when you feel totally safe with each other, when you can surrender to your pleasure together, when you can just lock your systems together and go off into joy, that you don’t know where their pleasure starts and your pleasure ends. For a woman especially, to be able to let go, she needs the conditions to be right outside the bedroom as well as inside the bedroom. Women want to be totally taken care of, but they also want some freedom. Women today are very emancipated. Men don’t understand how much romance is important to women, how much encouraging her, telling her you love her, taking her out for a walk in the countryside, rowing her in a boat on the lake, taking her for a hike. Moving a woman’s body moves her emotions, and she wants to feel an emotional connection to you. Men, often, what they want is recreational companionship. They want touch, affection, passion. Physical touch for them is love.   The Platinum Rule Treat your partner the way they want to be treated.   Behind Closed Doors With 20 percent of the effort, you get 80 percent of the results.

The Soulmate Embrace   Embodied Sex You’re feeling her, you’re touching her skin, you’re not even stroking her skin, you’re touching below her skin to the tissue underneath the skin to give pleasure, you’re bringing pleasure to yourself in all these wonderful nerve receptors by touching her for your own pleasure. You’re stroking each other’s whole bodies, you’re not just using friction of genitals, which is kind of like unconscious sex. This is conscious sex.   Presence Presence in lovemaking is a mindset. It is just like meditation, where when you meditate, and then you start thinking about something else, and then you bring yourself back.

Set a timer if you have to go somewhere so that you can come down from the oxytocin rush. Don’t make the goal about sex.     Deeper Dive Resources Organixx Supplements https://shop.organixx.com/search?q=sexual+health   Organixx Articles on Libido https://organixx.com/?s=libido   The Soulmate Embrace https://personallifemedia.com/soulmate-embrace/   The Sexual Soulmate Pact https://personallifemedia.com/sexual-soulmate-pact/   Susan’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/susanbratton/   Susan’s YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/BetterLover   Sexual Soulmates Book https://amzn.to/2X8nHMd   My Relationship Magic https://best.personallifemedia.com/relationship-magic-promo/?email_address=   Maca https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lepidium_meyenii   Cacao https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theobroma_cacao   Citrulline https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrulline   L-Arginine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arginine   Tribulus Terrestris https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribulus_terrestris

Diabetes/Pre-Diabetes Neuropathy Loss of sensation Anorgasmia Heart disease Plaque in your arteries/veins Not enough blood flow to your penis   Supplementation It took you this long to get sick, you’re not going to get healthy in a matter of days. We’re always working on our health because we’re always trying to reverse anti-aging, we’re trying to do anti-aging, we’re trying to reverse atrophy. Everything external is a reflection of internal, including our genitalia. Adaptogens/plant-based botanicals Support hormones Lower cortisol Increase testosterone Increase estrogen Manage aromatase expression of over-estrogen in men Supporting herbs Maca – libido support Cacao – polyphenols Nitric oxide precursors Citrulline L-arginine Arugula, dill, beets, spinach, cabbage Supplements Tribulus Terrestris Fenugreek Tongkat Ali Give it 90 days to build in body. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy Some hormones actually help you with things like hearing, like aldosterone. DHEA is a precursor to testosterone and estrogen. Typically, men feel good in the 700-1000 mg/dl. For women Combination of estrogen, bioidentical estrogen, as well as progesterone. Testosterone in coconut cream (used intravaginally)   Herb Cycling Over time, your body actually adjusts to having herbal formulas, and then, they’re not as effective. Each month use a different herb to see what works for you best.   Engorgement It means being filled with blood. It means to nest. When we’re born, when we’re in utero, we all start out as female. And about 16 weeks in, we get a, depending on the XY chromosome, we get a hormonal bath that turns half of us into boys. But we start out with exactly the same genital material.

Ready to put serious sizzle back in your relationship? Today, we’re talking about your libido, we’re talking about sex drive, and we’re talking about how to have fulfilling lovemaking with your mate, because it is vitally important. Learn the difference between testosterone driven and estrogen driven approaches to intimacy. Listen in as Susan teaches us how caring for and nurturing the sexuality that is your divine right as a human being on this planet, leads to the intimacy and connection that we all deserve to have.   * * *   About Susan Susan is a champion and advocate for all who desire passionate relationships.

We don’t really get a sex education, we get a procreation education, or a “How to not procreate” education. Abuse Adult programming is so prevalent now, that people are getting “their technique” from adult programming, which is complete fantasy, primarily degrading to women. Embarrassment Shame Religion   Why Don’t Our Parents Talk to Us About Sex? They don’t know. When they try to talk to us, we roll our eyes and like “Oh god, I don’t want to talk to you about this!”   Fundamental Thing About Libido Men are testosterone-driven, and women are estrogen-driven, and they make us wildly different in good ways and in ways that confound each other. So, we come to our connection from different perspectives.   “Revive Her Drive” Men ‘do’ to women what they want her to do to them because that’s what they know. Once you teach a man how to approach a woman the way estrogen needs to be approached, then all of a sudden, everything breaks open for the two of them.   Role Reversals There are people at this end and this end that are the minorities, but the general majority is heterosexual, monogamous, masculine/feminine, but there are people where there are reversals. And it doesn’t matter if it works for both people if there’s what is called polarity.   Polarity The masculine/feminine magnetic attraction of opposites.   Getting Over Your Mental Block Surrounding Sex Education is number one.   The Soulmate Embrace Technique Instead of trying to go from 0 to 100 miles an hour in your intimacy, start with the real foundations, like resetting your polarity. Why not just start by holding each other again? Holding and being held sets that polarity in. For the masculine, his job is to help the feminine get out of her mind and into her body. Our bodies are a temple, they are sacred. We can have sacred sexuality if we can connect at that level of intimacy, pleasure, limbic connections, soul connection, looking in each other’s eyes, syncopating our heartbeats, slowing our breath. “Setting the Lover’s Space,” having water, some strawberries and grapes, organic lube. Put in place all these little things, and hold her, and stroke her, and calm her down. Arousal and pleasure are actually the toggling of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Testosterone is “Full speed ahead!” But estrogen is like “Doodily-do, doodily-do, do, do.” Slowing down does so many things. It’s the touch of oxytocin. It’s the engorgement of our genitals. It’s the reconnection with each other. It’s the polarity that gets set in. Women need full body touching and stroking, they need their entire proprioceptive grid of cells really smoothed and touched and loved.   The Sexual Soulmate Pact “Okay, how about if we have this agreement where every time we’re intimate, I’ll tell you all the things my body is telling me she needs, so I can clue you in so you can be a winner in the bedroom with me.” Men are ruled by their hormones the same as we women are. When she blurts out any course corrections, and you can go both ways with this, of course, but this is very masculine/feminine, when she blurts out “Go harder,” “Go slower,” “Oh, you’re on my hair,” whatever she’s needing to say, and the only thing he does to respond is, “Okay, baby,” or “Got it,” or “Is this better?” or “Thank you.”   Sex Drive and Libido You need good hormones to have a libido, but that’s only a small amount of it. And it’s all of these touch techniques, and calming your nervous system, and feeling safe, and your other areas of your relationship being met and supported, that are also a big part of your sex drive, what makes you want to be with a person. That’s beyond libido, that’s actually your interest in sex, not just the fact that you feel like having sex, but that you actually take action and want sex.   How Females Can Approach This with Their Partners When you download my e-book, and you print it out, or you send the PDF to your husband or boyfriend, or you go out on date night and you read it together, or you read it in the car together, or you read it over dinner together, or whatever it is, or you leave it under his pillow, whatever you need to do, have him read it so he gets it and follows it, and say, “Could we make this pact? Could we have this pact in our bedroom? Let’s try it.”   What Makes A Strong Libido?
