Talking from morning to night about sex has helped my skiing, because I talk about movement, about looking good, about taking risks.

With comic self-awareness, Westheimer links her public vocation—speaking incessantly about sex—to an unexpected personal benefit: improved skiing. The joke rests on analogy. The same themes she discusses professionally (movement, presentation, and risk-taking) also apply to athletic performance, especially a sport that demands bodily confidence and controlled daring. Beneath the humor is a characteristic Westheimer message: comfort with the body and with taking measured risks can translate across domains, from intimacy to physical skill. The line also humanizes her persona, suggesting that frank sexual discourse is not merely clinical but connected to everyday life and embodied experience.
