Her life right now: WINNING. Luuvie chats with Yolanda and Cori about her blogger beginnings, hooking up with Hollywood go-getters and why even when she’s judged, she’s gracious. Plus, ESSENCE's resident intimacy expert, Abiola Abrams, is in the house to answer reader's sex questions and offer advice for some of those "sticky" situations that occur between lovers. She's keeping it all the way real!
