We are drawn to relating so that we can enjoy giving and receiving...the very foundation of what makes a relationship. And yet, these are areas that we are not taught about in our education, and indeed there is a lot of confusion about it all.

One of the leading voices on this topic is Betty Martin, who created the Wheel of Consent. This is a practice and a model for exploring the intricacies of true giving receiving, both as the "doer" and being "done to". Once we start to takes these pieces a apart, only then can we begin to understand all of these dynamics.

In this interview, you will learn:

* Why doing and giving are not synonymous
* Why being done to and receiving are not synonymous
* Understand more about how to take pleasure
* Why receiving is so challenging
* How to learn what you really desire
* How to activate your senses to really take pleasure from touch
* Why even long term couples can benefit from consent and agreements
