In this episode of Founder’s Story, Daniel Robbins sits down with Dr. Tara to explore how technology, intimacy, and human connection are colliding in ways we’ve never seen before. From sex robots and AI partners to ethical non-monogamy and the myth of “natural” sexual skill, Dr. Tara challenges the biggest assumptions about love, relationships, and pleasure. Her new book, How Do You Like It?, gives people the tools to discover their sexual identity and build stronger connections. Key Discussion Points:Dr. Tara shares her perspective on why robots and AI will become a normal part of relationships, and how our fears mirror the same resistance society once had to the internet and porn. She explains why the real issue isn’t the technology itself, but how people choose to consume it. She also opens up about living in an ethical non-monogamous relationship, the skills needed to make it work, and why communication—not monogamy—is the foundation of lasting intimacy. Beyond the taboo, Dr. Tara breaks down why boredom is the number one relationship killer, the role of “erotic solutions” in reigniting desire, and how sexual meditation can transform both individuals and couples. Takeaways:Listeners will learn why the belief that “sex should come naturally” is one of the most damaging myths in relationships, and how adopting a growth mindset in intimacy can be life-changing. Dr. Tara emphasizes that sexual competence is a skill—something that can be learned, practiced, and improved. She also shows why communication, novelty, and education are the secret weapons to long-term happiness. Closing Thoughts:Dr. Tara is on a mission to spread sex-positivity and shatter the stigma around intimacy. As she reminds us, love, sex, and connection are not static—they’re evolving. And with the right mindset, they can evolve into something extraordinary. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
