1. Cannasexual and Finding Pleasure After Trauma with Ashley Manta


Listen Later

On today's episode, we have Ashley Manta (She/Her) who created the term Cannasexual! She is an award-winning sex and relationship coach. She brings a trauma informed approach to combining sex and cannabis. She is also the author of The CBD Solution: Sex and the host of the podcast Elevated Intimacy.

Ashley talks about her journey into the sex education field, beginning with sexual assault survivor advocacy work and opens up about her own history with sexual trauma. We talk about normalizing lube, creating a masturbation ritual, and the benefit of weed suppositories. In this very transparent and honest dialogue, Ashley reveals how difficult it was to find pleasure in penetration and her own struggle with anxiety and panic attacks while using weed. She proudly professes that we all deserve to have amazing pleasure in our sex lives and is an inspiring leader in the pursuit of pleasure.
