Wonderful conversation! Thank you!

[@boristepavcevic3323]

This woman's observations are priceless..........particularly when she was explaining opening and closing of a woman based on what you are doing to her!!!

[@chrishnah]

Ha! When she talked about the house being lit up immediately I was like "turn off the lights" lol

[@katedean936]

Could totally be projecting here obvi but I’m catching vibes btw you two ⚡️

[@almaosmeni-olaveson1444]

Okay i love the example of asking “are you willing to do that?” And if they say no. What are the steps to follow?

[@IceBlossomRecording]

There is so much depth here in understanding female self-protection mechanisms, and all the ways in which women constrain and deny themselves because of feeling unsafe or unloved. And the male-female polarity discussion is awesome.

[@carl8568]

It felt like she was just getting started. I think that could have easily gone on for another 45 minutes.

There's always time for another podcast with Kelly in the future!
