40. Breaking Taboos: Gaining Awareness on the Clitoris, Female Pleasure, and Sexual Health


Listen Later

Today’s episode is a SPICY one, as we’re covering a bit of a ‘taboo’ topic: SEX!



In today’s conversation, we’re breaking taboos and gaining awareness on the clitoris, female pleasure, sexual health, and more. Unfortunately, there is still such a lack of research and education regarding the female body; all of it is shrouded in mystery and misinformation in our society.



Thankfully, we’re finally understanding more about the clitoris (the female organ whose sole function is PLEASURE), and how important it is for us as women!



We know how difficult it can be to navigate painful intercourse and intimacy challenges (especially surrounding female pleasure). It’s vital that you have open communication with your partner, and explore resources like pelvic floor and sex therapy to support you when necessary.



We hope this episode gave you a fresh + empowering perspective on sexual health and pleasure. If you’ve still got questions, we’re happy to dive deeper in future episodes - this is a conversation we’ll DEFINITELY be coming back to!! 



In this episode, we’re covering:

  • Mind-blowing stats regarding the clitoris 
  • Why the clitoris + pleasure in general tends to be ‘taboo’ & uncomfortable topics in our society
  • Navigating painful intercourse + why having a professional to talk with in the sexual wellness space can be helpful
  • Regular communication with your partner about your pleasure & intimacy
  • Assumptions that we have as women about who we ‘need’ to be with intimacy
