After taking an unplanned 4.5 month hiatus and embarking on the journey of trauma therapy I am BACK!!! In this just the tip style episode I talk about my decision to start therapy literally a week after I dropped the last episode on the pod! 

In this episode I dive into HER PLEASURE after binge watching Bridgerton on Netflix with my hottie hubby for V-DAY!! I highly recommend the series, and there are a few spoilers in this episode- but it sparked conversation surrounding FEMININE PLEASURE and how we need to normalize it and stop invalidating it. It amazes me how far we have not come from back in the day & the layers of generational shame that has been passed down when it comes to s-x & pleasure.  I also share tips on how to explore you own pleasure & how open communication with your partner leads to hotter s-x.
