I don’t know of any parent that says, “I can’t wait to have the sex talk with my kid!” So, I’m gonna have the moms from Birds & Bees on the podcast to help us navigate all that discomfort. 

They’re going to tell you this: you’re not alone in your dread. But they’ll also share why and how we need to take the pressure off of having ONE BIG TALK. 

This conversation is going to be so helpful for you and your crew. And, it’s just Part 1. They’ll be back next week to answer ALL YOUR QUESTIONS, ranging from when kids should stop bathing together, being naked around your children, and how to talk about sex when they’re a bit older. 

Finally, make sure you check out their BIRDS AND BEES course, which is now 20% off with the code “PAULA.”

SUMMARY: 

In this episode, we are delving into the pressure and dread parents feel around the sex talk, why parents need to initiate conversations about our bodies and sex, letting go of the pressure to be perfect parents so we can be purposeful parents instead, and how you can give your kids good information while giving yourself the grace to try again if a conversation doesn’t go the way you hoped it would.
