Join us for an insightful and invigorating discussion with Alisa Kriegel, author of From Sexless Marriage to Sex Goddess, A Memoir. We talk all about her experiences and perspectives on fostering a post-marriage friendship with her ex-husband after his coming out. She shares about how Relationships are built on three things – friendship, physical affection, and sex. We discuss how the loss of a relationship has the potential to turn our once-forever partners into “Somebody that I used to know,” according to singer, Gotye. We cover a lot of ground about women’s roles in society, co-Parenting, conscious uncoupling, and the fine line between history with an ex and a friendship with an ex. Tune in for Alisa’s fascinating story and our amazing conversation all about exes as friends.
