Guest: Kaamna Bhojwani || Sexuality & Psychology Expert

Show Summary

In this episode, Jon discusses separation and divorce with relationship expert and sexuality psychologist Kaamna Bhojwani, who shares personal and professional insights from her own divorce journey. Key topics include managing stress through healthy routines, and the importance of community support and self-reflection. Kaamna skillfully highlights the challenges men face in co-parenting post-divorce, balancing practicality with emotional availability. She advises listeners to find supportive networks, maintain boundaries, practice self-compassion, and reset personally before entering new relationships. This episode offers practical tips and emotional support to help men navigate separation with resilience and grace - all with a great sense of humor and perspective. 

When Kaamna’s mother accused her of being only interested in soul and sex, she had no idea how bang on she was. Today, Kaamna is a sexuality researcher with a specialization in shame and spirituality. Through 1:1 clients, small group workshops and public events, Kaamna helps people shed the shame and guilt around their sexuality and embrace a new sexual self-identity. Kaamna’s philosophy is simple: Nothing in the human experience is profane, so let’s talk about it. Kaamna holds a masters degree in Spiritual Psychology from Columbia University and a masters in Organizational Psychology from the University of Illinois. Kaamna’s work combines academic rigor with a deep love and compassion for being human – with all its complexities. When she’s not dismantling the shackles around human sexuality, she’s singing by a piano somewhere or planning her next trip to a soulful destination.
