What It Really Means to Be Asexual: Desire, Intimacy & Attraction | Love Matters S6 EP1

Can you be asexual and still be a sex and intimacy coach? What does asexuality mean when it comes to sexual attraction, desire, relationships and intimacy? And can the way we understand our sexuality change as we get older? In this episode of Love Matters, sexuality educator Leeza Mangaldas speaks with Aili Seghetti, intimacy coach and founder of The Intimacy Curator, about asexuality, sexual attraction, desire, intimacy beyond sex, and the ways we navigate relationships. The conversation explores common assumptions around sex, sexuality, intimacy, desire and relationships, and how we can find more authentic ways to understand what we want, communicate our needs, and connect with our partners.
