A narrative guide and practical methodology for nurturing and sustaining our relationships with ourselves, others, and the world.

“With intimacy as the foundational principle of our existence, we can build a life based on what we truly need, not what we think we need or have been told we need. By embracing the practice of radical intimacy, I can confidently promise my readers a personal revolution of self-acceptance, appreciation, vitality, and confidence. And without fail, mind-blowing, soul-stirring, earth-shattering sex follows.”Zoë Kors

Part practical guide, part client stories, part personal narrative, Zoë Kors draws on her experience as a sex and intimacy coach, thought leader, and relationship writer in sharing her powerful and practical methodology for nurturing and sustaining our intimate relationships over time. She addresses the essential truth that is almost universally missed in discussions of sex and intimacy: We can meet each other only to the extent that we can meet ourselves. Kors guides the reader on a five‑part journey through nine areas of opportunity for deepening intimacy with themselves, their partner, and their world, inviting them to embrace emotional, physical, and energetic self‑mastery, which is required to skillfully relate with others. At the conclusion of each part, there are a collection of experiential exercises which support the reader in embodying the concepts they’ve just read. Voice-driven, accessible, and with the right amount of tough love, Radical Intimacy takes the mystery out of human connection. From academia and science to mysticism and self-development, Kors delivers a rich and varied understanding of human sexuality and intimacy through the lens of the body, brain, heart, spirit, and culture.

  • “Philosophical and practical, part manifesto and part guide to sexual manifestation, Radical Intimacy is an accessible and unique perspective on the work of relationship. Delivered with exuberance and compassion, Zoë gives us all the tools we need to feel deeply connected, to ourselves, and each other.”
    Ian Kerner, sex therapist and NY Times best-selling author of She Comes First

  • "We live in an always-on, hyper-connected age that disconnects us from ourselves, distracts us from what matters in life, and erodes our capacity for intimacy. But as Zoe Kors argues, all is not lost. Drawing on her experience as a coach and educator, she makes the case for the importance of strengthening our capacity for intimacy, and shows how it can helps us deepen our relationships, connect with those we love, and better understand ourselves. In today’s world, nothing could be more radical."

    Natalie Lue, author of The Joy of Saying No

  • "There’s only one path and we are all on it. We are always in ‘intimate relationship’ with everything in the universe, because everything in the universe is in us. This book is a roadmap through the jungle of our fear and longing for love… into the warm heart of our true being."
    Krishna Das, Grammy nominated recording artist and kirtan wallah
  • “Zoë Kors is a profound listener… and what is intimacy other than the ability to truly listen without bias and without judgement? This listening comes through in her writing and in her work. I am grateful to have encountered, grown, and learned from both.” 
    Christopher Rivas, actor and storyteller
