Revvell Interviews Author Adina Nack
My guest today ia author Adina Nack. Adina is also Associate Professor of Sociology at California Lutheran University and has been involved with sexual health education for more than a decade as an outreach worker, health educator, researcher as well as a professor of sexuality studies.
STD’s and HPV are sensitive subjects for many and unknown to many so, it’s way cool that Adina has put it out there to be discussed. I wanted to do this interview and promote her book because many older women are getting out and dating again after their children have grown, divorce, death, etc. and thought this extremely important to get out.
Some of the questions I asked:
How did this book come about?
How are women more negatively impacted than mend?
Are there a lot of women with incurables?
Can a woman who has had only one sexual experience be infected with an std?
Do condoms prevent occurrence?
Does one actually have to have sex ~ i.e. penetration ~ to get an std?
Welcome back to Celebrating Your Potential. It’s been awhile since we aired a show yet, I’ve been receiving so many requests for interviews, felt I had to breathe some fresh air into it.
Todd and I chatted about the early stages of development and how it is so many get divorced or have basically “dead” marriages where the people involved don’t really participate. They don’t talk to each other; they don’t look at each other. How did they get this way?
Dr. Goldberg is the author of numerous books many of which deal with male/female relating, money, and men and women in general. As the show is called Celebrating Your Potential I really wanted to find out about how he got from fleeing the Nazi’s to becoming an expert in personal relationships.
As this program is about Celebrating Your Potential, I chose to interview this marvelous young woman who has taken her life in hand and is stepping into her power and living her passion of being an actress and as a sit-down comedienne. She had quite the jet-set life in England with a fairytale marriage, quirky parents, siblings, and a hot job as production manager for the BBC. Wood worked as an actor in her early twenties before launching a career behind the camera at the BBC including stints in News, Entertainment, Children’s, Live and Documentaries – but she can’t lift a pint of milk. She can’t walk, either. She has a neuromuscular condition called SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy). Sometimes through tears, her story is an empowering, humorous, one-of-a-kind take on life, love and lingerie – with a little disability and love of firemen thrown in – that inspires others to live as large as Wood does on a daily basis.
This is a really fun chat. We talk about Arlene’s childhood, the Law of Attraction, Karma, how to go from reacting to responding and what is the difference.
