Show Notes

Dr. Colby Zongol, a sexologist who specializes in sexual health and communication, is back for part 2 of our conversation on sexual health.  This week, the topic switches from kids to adults.

What kinds of conversations should partners have about their relationship and sexuality? How can someone broach these topics with their partner, even if they’re uncomfortable? Download this week’s episode to learn more.
