Episode 13: Reclaiming Pleasure: Unlearning Shame & Embracing Adult Sex Education

In this powerful and necessary conversation, we explore what so many of us never got: a real sex education. From the absence of accurate information to the impact of purity culture and abstinence-only messaging, many adults are left navigating intimacy, desire, and pleasure through layers of shame and misinformation. This episode dives into what it means to reclaim our bodies, our curiosity, and our pleasure—without stigma. We talk about the healing that happens when we unlearn the shame and begin to see sex, intimacy, and connection through the lens of empowerment, embodiment, and truth.My live zoom workshop Unclenching: Accessing Abundance Workshop is on July 20th from 11:00am-12:30pm PST.
