In this episode, I drop into one of the most foundational pieces of sexual healing: learning to stay with yourself. As a sex and relationship therapist, I see every day how our nervous systems, our conditioning, and our silence shape the ways we relate to desire. This conversation explores why talking about sex feels so hard, what lives underneath that discomfort, and how we begin reclaiming our erotic truth from the inside out. Whether you’re here for conscious relationships, embodied intimacy, or deeper nervous system regulation in relationships, this is where the real work begins.

Together we explore:

• Why cultural conditioning, shame, and avoidance make sexuality one of the hardest conversations in intimacy

• How your nervous system organizes around desire, vulnerability, and perceived relational threat

• The difference between performed desire and felt desire, and how somatic inquiry becomes the doorway to authentic intimacy

• What it means to build erotic sovereignty and trust your inner erotic knowing

• Why “tips and scripts” fall flat without embodied self-awareness and emotional regulation
