1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 In this episode of The Better Sex Podcast, I talk with clinical psychologist and neurodiversity expert Dr. Matt Zakreski about navigating sex, dating, and relationships through the lens of neurodivergence. From decoding consent to building confidence in communication, Dr. Matt offers real talk, deep insight, and practical tools for connection. In this conversation, we go behind the scenes of the social dynamics most people take for granted—like reading the room, picking up on flirting, or knowing how to initiate intimacy—and what happens when your brain processes the world differently. Dr. Matt breaks down why things like anxiety, social cues, and different ways of developing can make relationships feel especially confusing or overwhelming for neurodivergent folks. We explore how to build social and sexual competence through practice, why naming your needs is powerful, and how embracing your unique wiring can lead to more authentic intimacy. If you’ve ever felt like dating is confusing, consent is awkward, or you’re not doing it “right”—this episode will help you feel seen, empowered, and better equipped to create connection on your terms. &amp;nbsp; Connect with Dr Matt Zakreski&amp;nbsp; Website: &amp;nbsp;https://www.drmattzakreski.com/&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The Playbook: https://www.drmattzakreski.com/the-neurodiversity-playbook Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmattzakreski/ Connect with Deborah
