I’m sitting down with Lorena Rodriguez Banda, the powerhouse behind The PFILES, and we’re getting into it about sex, pleasure, and breaking those tired generational cycles that keep us silent. Lorena’s story is so relatable—strict upbringing, endless rules, and no real conversations about owning your body or finding your joy. But she flipped the script, and now she’s out here empowering women of color to do the same.

We’re talking about the things that really matter—how we can own our sexual health, why BIPOC communities carry so much shame, and how to let go of all that noise to find freedom. Lorena also breaks down the connection between sexual wellness, politics, and cultural pride. Trust me, this is the episode you didn’t know you needed!
