In this episode, Dr. Jenn sits down with Dr. Diana Hill, a modern psychologist, dynamic speaker, and expert trainer. Together they explore wise effort—a Buddhist principle—applied to sexuality. They discuss where you focus your energy in intimacy, relationships, and self-connection. Is it serving you? Is it where you want to be?
Dr. Diana Hill is redefining what it means to live with vitality. As a leader in psychological flexibility, she empowers individuals to reclaim and focus their energy in meaningful, sustainable ways. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), behavioral psychology, and contemplative practices, Diana bridges science with real-life application to help people cultivate resilience and well-being.
She is the host of the Wise Effort podcast and has interviewed over a hundred experts in evidence-based and integrative approaches to living well. She has a knack for unpacking complex, science-based concepts and making them applicable to clinical practice and daily life.
Diana has also authored several books, including I Know I Should Exercise But…, The Self-Compassion Daily Journal, and ACT Daily Journal and the upcoming book Wise Effort. Her insights have been featured on NPR, Mindful Magazine, Woman’s World, Real Simple Magazine, The Wise Brain Bulletin, Psychology Today, and Mindful.org.
