• Why Do People Have Sex? The Science and Psychology Behind the Why. 15.06.2026 14min

  Why do people have sex? A 2007 study identified 237 distinct reasons humans engage in sexual activity, revealing that our motivations extend far beyond pleasure, love, and reproduction. Researchers grouped these motivations into four major factors and 13 subcategories that help explain the "why" we have sex.In this episode, Lauren unpacks the science behind these four factors and 13 subcategories, exploring how different sexual motivations shape our relationships. You’ll discover what drives your motivation, how your reasons for having sex may differ from your partner’s, and why these differences can create both connection and conflict.By understanding your own sexual motivations, and those of your partner, you can gain valuable insight into your relationship, improve communication around intimacy, and identify practical ways to create a more fulfilling and satisfying sexual connection.-------Host: Lauren MuratoreGet FREE Sex & Relationship advice sent to your inbox.

• When Desire and Arousal Don't Match, Understanding Arousal Non-Concordance with Haley Krenzke 25.05.2026 46min

  Why does your body sometimes respond sexually when you don’t actually feel desire, attraction, or consent , and what does that mean for relationships, communication, and intimacy? Alternatively why does your body not respond when you're mentally into the experience?In this episode, Haley Krenzke joins me to unpack arousal non-concordance: something many people experience, and something we regularly hear in clinic. We explore how expectations about how our bodies “should” behave can create confusion, pressure, and disappointment in sex and relationships.Together, we discuss what “normal” actually looks like, how to communicate more openly about desire and consent, and why better sex often starts with removing performance pressure, letting go of rigid expectations, and reconnecting with playfulness and curiosity.Host: Lauren MuratoreGuest: Haley Krenzke | www.luxsextherapy.comGet FREE Sex & Relationship advice sent to your inbox.

• From Sex Work to Sex Therapy: The Making of an Expert. 14.04.2026 26min

  I didn’t learn about sex in a textbook. I learned it in the real world.Before becoming an accredited clinical sex therapist, I worked in the sex industry as a private independent sex worker (escort). It shaped everything I know about desire, intimacy, and why sex stops working in relationships.And while most people expect that to be a chapter I’d keep quiet on, it’s actually where I learned some of the most confronting truths about desire, power, and performance.In this episode, I’m not here to shock you. I’m here to show you what most people get wrong about sex. Because what happens in the bedroom isn’t just about technique. It’s about psychology, identity, safety, control, and vulnerability.And after a decade in clinical private practice, I can tell you this; the struggles couples face behind closed doors is not that different from what I witnessed long before I had a clinical framework to explain it.This is the story of how I went from living sex, to studying it, to helping people transform it. And why the truth about intimacy is far more uncomfortable and far more powerful than we’ve been taught.

• Is Porn Really Addictive? The Truth & Science behind Porn Addiction with Silva Neves 26.05.2025 31min

  Is porn really addictive? This episode explores the science, psychology, and controversy behind pornography addiction and its impact on sex, relationships, and the brain.Silva Neves is a world-renowned psychosexual therapist from London. We dive into the misconceptions of porn addiction. As Silva explains, frequency of viewing porn provides zero indication if porn is the problem. So why are so many people self diagnosing themselves as porn addicts? Hear what Silva describes a tsunami sex negative messages and the stories that provoke fear and shame. Another common issue we discuss is when one person in a relationship is anti porn and the other person enjoys it, what's next? Solo sex is part of an individuals sex life, how to integrate that into a couple dynamic is the trick, especially because people don't usually discuss their porn values early on in dating.I asked Silva what the science says- and it will surprise you! Science did not find causation but it did find correlation. Listen in to hear how that ties into misogyny. What about porn for education? Silva sheds light on how helpful it could be for the queer community, as sexually is often depicted in the media as heteronormative.The porn debate could still be up in the air for you, this episode will get you thinking about it in a different light.Host: Lauren MuratoreGuest: Silva Neves | https://silvaneves.co.uk/Get FREE Sex & Relationship advice sent to your inbox.

• The Clitoris Was Only Mapped in 1988 , Here’s Why That Matters with Anita Brown-Major 18.11.2024 49min

  Why do we still know so little about female anatomy and the clitoris, even in modern medicine? In this episode, I speak with Anita Brown-Major, member of the International Cliterati Committee and director of Thrive Rehab, about the shocking gaps in research surrounding women’s sexual health and pleasure. We explore the anatomy of the clitoris and vulva, why sexual response is far more complex than people realise, and how diversity in female bodies is completely normal.
