Ep 5: How to Actually Talk About Sex
from Sovereign Self · host Megan Phippen, MA LPC
In this episode, I’m dropping you into the heart of what it actually takes to talk about sex without abandoning yourself. As a sex and relationship therapist, I see over and over that most people aren’t struggling because they don’t care; they’re struggling because their nervous systems were never given the conditions to feel safe enough for honesty.This conversation walks you into the foundations of conscious relationships, sexual embodiment, and the real work of staying connected to yourself while bringing your desire into the space between you. If you’ve been wanting deeper, clearer, more embodied intimacy, this is where it begins.Here’s what we explore inside this episode:Why most communication “tools” don’t work without nervous system regulation in relationshipsHow cultural conditioning and shame shape our sexual expression long before we ever have sexWhat makes desire difficult to name and why somatic curiosity is essential for somatic healingA simple, powerful framework for navigating vulnerable conversations about sexHow honesty, attunement, and shared language create the conditions for intimacy that feels realFollow me on Instagram: @sovereignself.loveJoin my email list: https://sovereignself.myflodesk.com/emailsignupWebsite: https://www.sovereignself.loveExplore my “The Way We Fight” course: https://www.sovereignself.love/the-way-we-fight
