Honest Sex: A Passionate Path to Deepen Connection and Keep Relationships Alive

Some say we are outgrowing marriage as a culture. However, the problem that author Shana James regularly sees as a relationship coach-and through her own divorce-is that many of us have not matured enough to create the emotionally-connected, sexually-satisfying relationships we long for. Honest Sex teaches us what kind of honesty is effective for creating closeness, what sex actually is (rather than what we've been taught), and how to communicate desires and upsets to create more intimacy. By examining new ways to sustain connection with a partner, author Shana James illuminates a framework for relationships to start strong and get more intimate and exciting over time.James is the creator and host of the Man Alive podcast and has a TEDx Talk, "What 1,000 Men's Tears Reveal About the Crisis Between Men and Women." In this book, she uses her Master's in psychology, DISC, and Positive Intelligence certifications to guide readers. As a relationship coach for 20 years, she humbly discovered the causes of disconnection and distrust in relationships, as well as how to build trust and keep passion alive.
