Unwind with Poppy Jamie

129: Why we fear desire with Charlotte Fox Weber

In today's episode, I am speaking to the wonderful psychotherapist, Charlotte Fox Weber. She is the author of What We Want, a book that takes you on a journey through 12 Universal Wants and Desires from love, power, sex, attention and takes us behind the closed doors of the psyche, an area we don't explore enough. I cried within 20 minutes of reading this book. Charlotte's stories are so relatable, universal and above all else, human. This book truly is a work of art. As a reader, you can identify with wanting and desiring normal things that most of us don't admit and the blocks we often face to truly get what we want.
