In today's episode of The Root Cause Medicine Podcast, Dr. Carrie Jones sits down with Dr. Saida Desilets, a thought leader, educator, and pioneer in women's psychosexual health. You'll hear them discuss:

  • Why 40-70% of women struggle with low libido

  • How pleasure extends beyond sexuality into everyday life

  • The role of nervous system regulation in women's wellness

  • Simple daily practices to reclaim sensuality and pleasure

  • Why beauty and joy are essential nutrients for wellbeing

Dr. Saida Desilets is a leading authority on embodied psychosexuality and women's wellness. She developed her approach after noticing that traditional sex therapy often didn't produce positive results. Through her work with thousands of women globally, she helps them reconnect with their bodies, reclaim their sensuality, and support women in reconnecting with their bodies and rediscovering a sense of sensuality and pleasure. Dr. Desilets is the author of "Emergence of the Sensual Woman" and offers programs through her platform, Dare Your Desire.
