Ep 8: 5 Myths About Pleasure & Shame-Shedding Truths


Listen Later

In this solo episode with Marlee Liss, we dive into:

  • The power of community to support you in sensual reclamation
  • Nervous system overload and the essential role pleasure plays in balanced processing
  • Tackling shame re: being easy vs. 'hard to get'
  • Understanding the source of sensual shame through examining women's history
  • Myth 1: Is pleasure indulgent?
  • Myth 2: Is pleasure selfish?
  • Myth 3: Is pleasure dangerous? Risk-based vs. pleasure-positive sex education
  • Myth 4: Is pleasure scarce? A limited resource to compete for?
  • Myth 5: Is pleasure exclusive to privileged bodies? What about marginalized bodies, queer folks, people with disabilities and trauma survivors re: pleasure access?
  • Breaking down the damaged good narratives and claiming our pleasure as radical
  • Breaking free from ‘one size fits all’ approaches to sexuality & pleasure
  • The natural progression of healing: we do this for ourselves and then pass it onto others 


Marlee is a sensual reclamation coach, speaker, author and restorative justice advocate. She is also a queer, Jewish, sparkle-loving feminist. Featured in Forbes, Huff Post & Buzzfeed, Marlee made history in the justice system when her sexual assault case became the 1st in North America to conclude with restorative justice. Since then, she has coached hundreds of women internationally in reclaiming sensuality.
