Show Notes

Welcome to a special two-part episode on sexuality and relationships, where the tables have turned, and I'm the one in the hot seat! I'm thrilled to be interviewed on my show by the incredible Nadia Hughes, a fellow podcaster and the director of Unfair Advantage Accounting. 

Nadia wears many hats, from offering outsourced CFO services to being a licensed Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and Certified Public Accountant (CPA). She has also earned certification as a Divorce Financial Analyst, assisting couples in navigating complex financial challenges. 

In this episode, Nadia and I dive deep into fascinating topics like the impact of culture on sexuality, differences in gender perceptions and communication, one-night stands, the intriguing connection between pain and pleasure, and more. Take advantage of this insightful conversation, and stay tuned for part 2, where we'll uncover even more juicy discussions!
