After the TED Talks is when I decided that I wanted to leave the confines of the 4 walls of the office.

And now, your world is expanding.ĮP: So, for the first 35 years of my career, I was primarily a clinician in my office.

Her TED Talks on sex and relationships have been viewed 40 million times. But for the roughly 8 readers who don’t yet know who she is, here’s a brief one: Esther is a New York Times bestselling author of books like The State of Affairs: Rethinking Infidelity and Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence.
Esther Perel hardly needs an introduction.
