Shana James featured Elizabeth Anneka, a touch and intimacy coach, on her podcasts 'Practicing Love' and 'Man Alive' to discuss strategies for deepening understanding of women's pleasure and building confidence. Anneka's approach advocates for slowing down, paying attention to a partner's breathing, lightening physical touch, and acting with intention, which can fundamentally transform intimate experiences by moving beyond standard techniques. The discussion highlighted that desire can fade not because of a lack of interest, but due to the quality of touch. When intimacy feels disconnected or hurried, emotional and physical satisfaction diminishes, whereas attuned presence fosters connection. Both podcast episodes explored the psychological barriers affecting sexual connection, including performance anxiety and the cultural pressure on men to view intimacy as a binary outcome. The conversation emphasized that being a better lover relies less on memorizing techniques and more on cultivating curiosity, vulnerability, and presence in the moment. Elizabeth Anneka, the founder of How To Touch Women, is a touch and intimacy coach who works with men, women, and couples to enhance physical connection by interpreting subtle bodily cues with curiosity and confidence.
