Sex Educator: Taylor Neal - Who Is Sex Actually For? The Truth About Pleasure, Performance & Reclaiming Your Own Experience

from The Space Between · host Bevan Pfeiffer

Most of us were never taught to enjoy sex — we were taught to perform it. Taylor Neil is a somatic sexologist and sex educator whose work sits at the intersection of body-based healing, movement, and human sexuality. In this episode, we get into why so many people show up to sex thinking about everyone else's experience but their own, what it actually means to build a self-pleasure practice (and why it goes way beyond genital touch), and how your nervous system is secretly running the show in every intimate moment. We cover: The question Taylor carried for years: who is this for? Why performance anxiety affects 85% of people seeking sex therapy How your masturbation routine is probably built for efficiency, not pleasure What orgasmic yoga is — and why it might change how you think about your body The concept of "building a context" for pleasure and why it matters Why setting a container is the key to actually dropping in Self-aftercare, curiosity, and what lives on the other side of orgasm This is one of the more honest and practical conversations I've had about a topic most people are too uncomfortable to talk about openly. Taylor brings a rare combination of clinical training and lived experience that makes this genuinely useful — not just interesting. Expect to think differently about your body by the end of this one.   Bevans Website:   www.theembodiedmind.com.au   Taylor's website:    www.taylorneal.ca
