Sue McGarvie
Sue has been described by The Ottawa Citizen as a “creative thinker, and outstanding achiever”.
Sue McGarvie is an internationally recognized sex and relationship therapist based in Canada. With extensive credentials—including degrees in Psychology, Education, Sexuality & Family Life, Broadcast Technology, and New Media—Sue has made it her life’s mission to improve sexual health, libido, and intimacy worldwide. She is the founder of innovative platforms such as Nookie College and Over40CONNECT.com, and co-hosts the widely acclaimed “Turned On with Sue and John,” a top 25 podcast on relationships and sexuality.
Sue’s influential career spans hosting multiple successful radio and TV series, including “Sunday Night Sex With Sue,” “Sexual Solutions,” “Unzipped,” and “Love and Lipstick.” As founder of Passion Media, she championed mainstream sexuality across digital and broadcast mediums, earning prestigious recognitions including Woman of Distinction, Business and Professional Women’s Association Woman of the Year, and the Province of Ontario Award for Women in Community Leadership.
In leadership roles, Sue has notably contributed as past Chair of Canadian Women in Communications, past President of UNIFEM Canada, and as a driving force behind the Shirley E. Greenberg Women’s Health Center at The Ottawa Hospital.
When she’s not professionally revolutionizing relationships, Sue indulges her passions: exotic adventure travel, fearless culinary experimentation, and the occasional crocodile feeding. At home, she collects fridge magnets, fearlessly runs with scissors, proudly owns exactly 25 red dresses, and knows every lyric to every Dolly Parton song ever written.
