Order your copy of The Let Them Theory 👉 👈 The #1 Best Selling Book of 2025 🔥 Discover how much power you truly have. It all begins with two simple words. Let Them.

This will completely change how you think about sex.

You know you’re supposed to prioritize exercise.

You understand the importance of nutrition and sleep.

But no one ever taught you why pleasure and sex actually matter. Until today.

Dr. Nicole McNichols, PhD, is the #1 sex professor in the country and a University of Washington professor who teaches the most popular class on campus - human sexuality.

According to the research Dr. Nicole McNichols shares, satisfying, connected sex isn’t indulgent or optional. When you prioritize pleasure, you don’t just improve your relationship - you support brain health, cardiovascular health, creativity, emotional resilience, and even longevity.

And in this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, Dr. McNichols gives you the science, language, and permission most of us were never given - so you can stop treating sex like a luxury and start treating it like the powerful, life-supporting force that it is.
