Overview

An acclaimed sex therapist's practical, playful, and inclusive guide that teaches you how to discover your deepest sexual desires, communicate your wants and needs, define your boundaries, and have the sex you want. While popular culture is saturated with sex, the gap between informed sex education and satisfying sex is vast, and it often leaves LGBTQQ+ individuals out of the conversation entirely. Hot and Unbothered bridges that chasm, giving you explicit permission to talk about, think about, and achieve the pleasure you desire without shame or secrecy, no matter your sexual identity or gender. In Hot and Unbothered, Yana Tallon-Hicks provides a roadmap to empower yourself and improve your relationships, sharing the unique programs she developed for her therapy clients and workshops. She begins by shattering myths about good sex, which is seamless, satisfying--and nearly non-existent. Once you let go of unreachable ideals, you can start to truly identify your own unique desires and fears and build the safest space to fulfill your most pleasurable sexual experiences. Yana guides you to discover your own hang-ups and overcome barriers such as shame, secrecy, misinformation, low self-esteem, lack-of-motivation, and unhealthy relationship patterns. When the path to pleasure is cleared the fun begins! Yana helps you decide who you really are as a sexual being and how to set sexual goals. What do you want? What do you like? What have you yet to discover? And how do you want to explore? In answering these questions, you can establish and set your limits, clarify your needs, and communicate your desires to your current partner. Yana reminds you that whether your partner is a lifelong companion or a casual hook-up, your pleasure, comfort, and identity should always be supported. Yana unpacks common stumbling blocks, troubleshoots tricky conversations, and addresses potential backslides to ensure long-lasting success. Complete with worksheets and exercises, Hot and Unbothered will help you understand, pursue, and fulfill your sexual desires now, and for the rest of your life. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Author Information

Yana Tallon-Hicks, LMFT, is a sex therapist specializing in LGBTQQ+, kinky, and non-monogamous relationships. She is also a consent, sex, and sexuality columnist and educator. Whether written or with clients, her work centers around the belief that pleasure-positive and consent-based sex education can positively impact our lives and the world. She lives in Western Massachusetts. Kristin Condon began dancing from a young age. She later found her niche onstage after her family moved to Massachusetts and she began studying and performing with Boston Ballet and Ballet Theatre of Boston. Dancing eventually led her to acting and an MFA from the University of Southern California and beyond. Kristin's first movie role was in Being John Malkovich, in which she played a ballet dancer--not a huge stretch! She has since gone on to appear in several films and TV shows, and has recorded several audiobooks including Ashlynn's Dreams by Julie Gilbert and Zac and Mia by AJ Betts.
