Praise for Dr. Freed's Sexual Wisdom workbook:
"Sex is not the risk factor, being irresponsible is. This hands-on workbook sums up an entire public health campaign that is wise, educational and bold. For all of you seeking a tool to engage young people in exploring their sexuality, their body, and their relationships, this is it. Sexual Wisdom combines good judgment, connection, and pleasure. Who can refuse?"
-- Esther Perel, Author of Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence
"This workbook is the manifestation of an evolved soul. Jennifer Freed is trying to help kids evolve into their best selves by focusing squarely on instilling emotional intelligence, compassion, etc. These workbooks are both sacred and practical. It is impossible not to be touched by the concrete techniques and the enlightened intentions one finds in these pages."
--Dr. Ron Taffel, renowned expert on adolescent psychology, author of The Second Family, Parenting By Heart, and more
