| DSH #2068 Modern relationships are changing fast, and most people are not ready for where intimacy technology is going. In this Digital Social Hour episode, Sean Kelly sits down with intimacy expert Susan Bratton to discuss relationships, communication, adult wellness technology, long-distance connection, trust, emotional safety, performance anxiety, modern dating, and how couples can build better connection. Susan explains why many people struggle to talk openly about what they want, why honesty and trust are essential in relationships, and how technology is changing the way couples stay connected when they are apart. The conversation also covers AI-driven adult wellness tools, long-distance relationships, masculine and feminine energy, emotional expression, communication, confidence, stamina, and why real intimacy requires curiosity instead of ego.
