EFR 912: How to Have the Best Sex of Your Life and Why Optimizing Your Libido is the Missing Key to Being a High-Performer with Dr. Susan Bratton

This episode is brought to you by Joymode, Strong Coffee Company and Cured Nutrition.

In this high-energy and revealing episode, intimacy expert Dr. Susan Bratton, PhD joins us to explain why great sex is not just pleasurable — it's powerful. We explore how optimizing your sex life is the "fourth health factor" that most high achievers overlook, yet it plays a critical role in cognitive sharpness, hormone balance, longevity, and emotional resilience. Susan breaks down the science of pleasure, the importance of blood flow and nitric oxide, the difference between male and female arousal timing, and why communication is the foundation of great sex. From libido botanicals to red light therapy to "sexual biohacking," this episode is a no-BS guide to upgrading your health, relationships, and self-confidence — inside and outside the bedroom.

"Sex is the fourth health factor. The longer you have hot, orgasmic sex, the longer, healthier, and happier your life is."
