And if they're so 61 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: inclined and are willing and ready and feel comfortable, then 62 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: they are you know, as to go ahead and practice 63 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: these exercises. And one of them is about sexual energy 64 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: and connection and I dazing and synchronized breathing and copying 65 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: of genitals, all that included. 66 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: It's all about the correction and do you in your 67 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 2: own relationships. Is it intimidating for a partner to know 68 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 2: what you do for a living because I think I'm 69 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: you know, hype on a ride, I'm good at it. 70 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it can be very intimidating. In my case, 71 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: not only am I as astrologist, that I am a 72 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: public figure and I do this very public work in 73 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: all these different countries, so there's a lot of like 74 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: everybody knows. It's not just them knowing, it's them knowing 75 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: that the world grows talk about this, and that can 76 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: be very intimidating for a lot of men. And to 77 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: be quite honest, it's a nice It's kind of like 78 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: a nice alert for me because I'm not interested in 79 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: people who would be intimidated by my profession. If somebody 80 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: can't see past my profession to see the woman that 81 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: I am, then you know, that's just not cool, not 82 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: good enough. So it helps me e gauge whoever's intimidated 83 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: or whoever, on the contrary, is like I say, maybe 84 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: salivating a little bit too much because she's a six slogy, 85 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: she's gonna be in me, and so that turns me 86 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: up too, because there's too much pressure on me. So no, 87 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: either way is not good. It has to be somebody 88 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:54,799 Speaker 1: that likes me as a person. 89 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 4: Well, you could be like a mechanic, Like a mechanic 90 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 4: at home.
