Over-Scheduled Life, Underfed Souls: Reconciling The Erotic and the Domestic

Never before has the survival of the family so depended on the happiness of the couple. Yet, all too many partners live in a state of emotional deprivation and chronic time crunch. While the kids get ample playdates and extracurricular activities, the couple slogs it out with the same-old, same-old. The children get the latest in fashion, but the adults walk around in sweat pants that have lost their original color. The kids get languorous hugs while the couple subsists on a diet of quick pecks. In this talk, Esther Perel shares the science behind thriving relationships and the art of nourishing the soul. Audiences will come away with fresh insight on how to reconcile our need for safety and security with our quest for novelty and adventure. They will also gain actionable tools to cultivate erotic intelligence —an intelligence that embraces aliveness, vibrancy and vitality.
