In this episode Karen discusses the often misunderstood concept of sexiness. Inspired by her recent trip to Portugal, Karen shares the lessons she learned about confidence and sensuality from observing how Europeans engage with life. She challenges the typical perception of sexiness, offering a different perspective.
