#387 The Spiritual Nature of Sexuality with Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife

In this episode, Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife and I explored the intersection of spirituality and sexuality, particularly focusing on how societal and religious expectations impact LDS women's understanding and expression of sexuality. Jennifer teaches us about three stages of spiritual and sexual development, including how individuals progress from Stage 1's black-and-white morality to Stage 3's integrated understanding of spirituality and sexuality, and we also talked about self-acceptance, spiritual alignment, and the role of physical pleasure in creating deeper intimacy in relationships. If you have struggled to understand where your spirituality and your sexuality intersect, you'll want to listen to this episode for sure!
