I had sent them a recent news story I was quoted in and had been met with\u2026 silence. Eventually, I nudged a little bit and they responded, saying \u201cI\u2019m sorry, I just can\u2019t be proud of someone who talks about sex and sex toys for a living. It\u2019s embarrassing.\u201d As we unpacked this statement, it became clear that they were unable to see the good\u2014any good\u2014in my work. As a therapist, as a writer, as an educator\u2026 my work was shameful in their eyes.\u00a0 In that moment, I understood my clients in a way I never had before.<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Sprinkles on Top <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was already finished by the time this occurred, but if it hadn\u2019t? This conversation would have inspired me to write it. It can be incredibly painful to have someone you love tell you that \u201cWhat you do is wrong. Who you <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is not OK.\u201d Many kinky people are afraid that if they share their innermost selves with the ones they love most, they too will be rejected, written off as broken or creepy or wrong. I wrote <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sprinkles <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">because I believe deeply that every single human being deserves to feel loved and worthy and whole, to know that their innermost desires are not just valid but beautiful, and to find others who can celebrate this beauty and their relationships together with them.<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sprinkles<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is also written for the partners of these kinky people, many of whom tell me that, if their spouse had just been willing to share their desires, they would have happily explored with them. For the spouses who don\u2019t understand the fantasies or intimate practices they\u2019re learning about and who need a guide to help them navigate these new relationship waters. For the men and women who call my office afraid\u2014afraid that there\u2019s something wrong with their partner or something inadequate in themselves.<\/span><\/p><p><b>They want me to \u201cfix\u201d them. I want to celebrate them.<\/b><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Sprinkles on Top<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is not a \u201chow to\u201d book. It\u2019s a \u201cwhat now?\u201d book. My goal is to celebrate the things that make each person and each relationship unique and delightful\u2014and to help them discover new unique qualities in themselves and new ways to delight one another. I want to celebrate vanilla relationship values while also normalizing and affirming kinky identities. I want to help my readers find new and exciting ways to enhance their own core sexual and relational \u201cflavor\u201d through interactive activities they do by themselves and with their partner.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Differences in desire represent an exciting opportunity to strengthen and reinforce the bonds of intimacy and trust we have created within our relationships, while also expanding the erotic playground we enjoy together. We don\u2019t have to change who we are. We don\u2019t have to be ashamed of what we want or embarrassed to talk about it. Sexuality, desire, and intimacy are, to me, sacred gifts. I\u2019m honored to be able to help my readers, my clients, and others to build happier, healthier relationships with their bodies, their partners, and themselves. I hope you enjoy the process of finding your sprinkles and using them to communicate, explore, and connect with the one(s) you love.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kol Tuv,<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stefani Goerlich<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-908ab7c elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"908ab7c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0bef11e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0bef11e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c83ce36\" data-id=\"c83ce36\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d657b4d elementor-position-left elementor-vertical-align-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"d657b4d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><figure class=\"elementor-image-box-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"396\" height=\"594\" src=\"https:\/\/resources2.soundstrue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stefani-Goerlich.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\"><b>Stefani Goerlich, PhD, LMSW-Clinical, LISW, LCSW, CST<\/b>, is a certified sex therapist and master social worker who specializes in working with gender, sexuality, and relationships.
