Publisher's Summary

Did you know that there is an orgasm gap of around 30 percent between heterosexual couples when they have sex?

In Mind the Gap, Dr Karen Gurney, a clinical psychologist and certified psychosexologist, explores not just this gap but the gaps in our knowledge of so much of the most important new science around sex and desire.

In this audiobook, you will learn that nearly everything that you've been led to believe about female sexuality isn't actually true. And that, despite what you might think, it is possible to simultaneously feel little to no spontaneous desire and have a happy and mutually satisfying sex life long term.

Exploring the mismatch between ideas about sex in our society and what the science tells us, Mind the Gap also explains how this disconnect lies at the root of many of our sexual problems.

Combining science with case studies, practical exercises and tips, this is an audiobook for anyone who wants to better understand the mechanics of desire and futureproof their sex life, for life.

Rewrites the female desire script

Dr Gurney confirms and articulates well what I have long thought about female desire, arousal and pleasure, but about which I've only gleaned anecdotal confirmation from the outside world. Armed with information from her years of experience working with women and couples, I feel normalised, capable, supported and validated. A very useful book.

A real relationship reset

Dr Gurney is very pleasant to listen to. After having two children recently, life has been very busy. This book has helped me realise the importance of repriorotising myself, my wife doing the same and spending quality time together.
Well worth a listen.
