Welcome to episode 362 of Sexology Podcast! Today I am delighted to be speaking with Dr. Tara Suwinyattichaiporn. In this episode, we discuss Yoni Massage, how it enables women to relinquish control and gain a profound understanding of their bodies, redirecting the emphasis towards exploration instead of climaxing and the crucial importance of sexual communication in attaining sexual liberation. 

Dr. Tara is a tenured professor of relational and sexual communication at California State University Fullerton (recieved her tenure at the age of 33), an award-winning researcher, a sex and relationship coach, and the host of Luvbites by Dr. Tara Podcast that focuses on sexual wellness and sexploration.  Her work has been featured in KTLA News, Cosmopolitan, Women’s Health Magazine, Insider, and other media outlets. She's also on the advisory board for the MŌN app and Superstars app. 

In 2022, Dr. Tara gave a TEDx Talk titled Become Sexually Powerful that highlights her 5,000-participant study examining predictors of sexual satisfaction, and her journey from an anxious immigrant to a confident Sexpert. Her life's goal is to normalize sex talks, and help people live a more passionate life and feel more sexually fulfilled through confidence and communication coaching.
