We’re proud to bring you this interview with Zoë Kors, a renowned sex and intimacy coach based in Los Angeles, author of the new book Radical Intimacy: Cultivate the Deeply Connected Relationships You Desire and Deserve (Hachette Go), host of the Radical Intimacy podcast and Residence 11 contributor. Her new book challenges conventional wisdom around what we consider “intimacy” to be and offers readers suggestions on cultivating intimacy on a daily basis as well as offering an expansive view of relationships and sexuality. We asked Kors about the different kinds of intimacy, the role of orgasm in sex, and how the pandemic has affected intimacy.
