About this episode
When it comes to your sexual style, have you ever thought about your voice? Do you moan? Slow things down? Pitch up or down an octave?
Actor, writer and director Lake Bell is obsessed with the human voice. On today’s show, we’ll discuss her audiobook Inside Voice, which explores this obsession, including the “sexy baby voice” phenomenon - which happens to be her least favorite choice for bedroom talk. We also discuss your takes on dating in your 40s, and why things often get better with age when it comes to the pursuit of romance. All this and more with my amazing guest, Lake Bell.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How your voice can enhance intimacy and authenticity in and out of the bedroom.
Why playful and respectful communication is the key to better sex.
The joys of dating in your 40s, from confidence to self-awareness.
