In this episode of Front Porch AF, Kelli and Sue welcome sex therapist Dr. Emma Smith to demystify sex therapy, explain what it addresses, and correct common misconceptions.

Dr. Smith also shares how she works with couples and individuals to heal, grow, and rewrite their stories. But of course, there’s also Drinks of the Day, Neighborhood Notes (a bush-hogged phone? yup), and more. Come grab a drink, pull up a chair, and let’s solve all the problems of the world. Cheers!
