In this episode of Courageous Girls, Terra Mattson sits down with Dr. Nancy to explore the beauty, complexity, and God-given design of female sexuality—both for mothers and daughters. We dive into how hormones, trauma, and societal expectations shape the way women experience desire, intimacy, and self-awareness, and how moms can create safe spaces for honest conversation with their daughters.

Together, we talk about:

🔹 Understanding our bodies – How hormonal cycles and natural sexual desire are part of God’s design, and how moms can guide their daughters with knowledge and compassion.

🔹 Navigating shame and trauma – Recognizing how past experiences and societal messages affect female sexuality, and creating space for healing and curiosity.

🔹 Celebrating individuality – Every woman’s libido and sexual expression are unique; learning to know and honor our own rhythms is an act of empowerment.

🔹 Mother-daughter connection – How ongoing, judgment-free conversations and unconditional love help daughters feel safe, valued, and prepared to navigate relationships and sexuality in a digital world.

With wisdom, compassion, and practical guidance, Dr. Nancy helps us see that female sexuality is not something to fear or suppress—it’s a gift designed by God. This conversation reminds us that our daughters—and we as mothers—thrive when we embrace honesty, curiosity, and grace in all aspects of our lives.
