118. Sex After Betrayal & Divorce w/ Jennifer Finlayson-Fife

In this episode, I explore the complex journey of healing from sexual infidelity, abuse, and betrayal with Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife, a renowned relationship and sexuality coach. We delve into what healthy sexuality looks like, the challenges of rediscovering sexual intimacy post-trauma, and the importance of self-compassion and self-awareness. Dr. Finlayson-Fife shares invaluable insights from her work with religious populations and her experience helping individuals and couples build stronger, more intimate relationships. We also discuss the nuances of emotional and sexual intimacy, the impact of cultural and religious messages on sexuality, and practical steps for recognizing and cultivating healthy sexual experiences. This episode aims to provide listeners with tools and perspectives to navigate their own healing journeys and develop a compassionate relationship with their sexuality. More From Jennifer: Art of Desire course for women, and possibly her Understanding Intimate Deception mini-course. You mentioned most listeners are divorced, but if they are grappling with making sense of betrayal, that could be a helpful resource that is affordable, a quick listen, and packed with really helpful insight from Dr. Finlayson-Fife.  ______________________________________________________ Women Supporting Women Facebook Group ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join The Facebook Page Here ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/groups/theempowereddivorce ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DATING FROM WITHIN WORKSHOP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ : Next one January 23rd- 25th 2025 Missed it? no worries, find the next Workshop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MONTHLY DIVORCE Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join myself and others who are navigating the complexities of divorce and the aftermath that you may not have expected.
