That changed with Emily Nagoski’s pioneering work, which offered a new perspective rooted in groundbreaking research on mindfulness, desire, stress, and pleasure.

At the heart of Come As You Are is a simple yet radical truth: the key to a fulfilling sex life is not about anatomy or performance—it’s about how you feel about yourself, your body, and your experiences. Stress, mood, trust, and body image are not secondary concerns; they are central to sexual well-being. By addressing these factors, Nagoski empowers women to embrace their sexuality with confidence, compassion, and authenticity.
