Scared Stiff: When sexual initiation goes wrong!

Episode 9 begins with a story of a sexual encounter gone terribly WRONG! What started as a sexy tryst quickly turned to terror! Trey and Lauren will have you cackling or groaning as you recall similar encounters of your own. WARNING: this episode uses anatomical terms and describes sexual positions. Have you ever have a major stumble midway through a sexual escapade? Have you ever had difficulty initiating a lover's tryst? Then Episode 9 is for you! Without giving away the story, Trey shares just exactly what was going through his head when the disaster occurred and how Lauren was able to hold space for his fear then laugh with him to release the tension that had been built up in his body - BECAUSE of her. Lauren expounds on WHY she did what she did and all the work it took to stay present in the midst of her major failure. Then, at minute marker 31:06, she outlines Dr. Petra Zebroff's Seven Styles of  Sexual Initiation and how knowing what turns ourselves and our partners on can be such a cool party trick! This episode is a prime example of our desire for this podcast to be a "how we" instead of "how to!" We are messy, flawed, and at times downright dysfunctional. We hope your bedroom disasters feel more normal after you've watched/listened! Sexual Initiation can be hard and Lauren would love to walk you and your partners through this tough conversation.
