These days, there is a collective urge where you are told, inspired, and peer pressured into working harder, stronger, and faster, to perform at your maximum capacity at all times and accomplish all your goals and dreams while you're young, and so that your life matches the digital world. That’s burnout culture.

The quality of life that we experience, especially in the West with all of the digital gadgets that we have, it's a good thing. We have many benefits from the Industrial Revolution and it has improved our lives. Technology has given us the tools to be productive, which is an important part of our lives if we want to achieve certain goals. But it's almost like it has now seeped into the internal ecology of our human experience and we correlate our worth as beings to our capacity to produce results, in all areas of our lives, that includes our sex life.

You are valuable, simply because you are alive, you don't have to be productive to be valuable, good or loved, or accepted. This is an invitation for you to build THAT relationship with yourself “I am valuable in my beingness.” And as a sex coach, I am convinced that your beingness includes sexual sensual erotic pleasure.

“Because if you don't have those in your life, those experiences, you're missing out in general, not just with pleasure and sex, but in general. And at the end of your life. Do you want to look back at your life and congratulate yourself for being the most fucking productive person on this planet?” [13:00]
