We’re back! Rachel and I had a rare reunion in Portland and we couldn’t wait to sink our teeth into juicy conversation. We often wonder why we’re not recording 24/7 Truman Show style. So much abounds from conversation with each other and we always have a blast together. We are perfect mirrors of each other […] The post No more good girl: masturbation as empowerment appeared first on Sophia Treyger.

What an eventful week! Today’s article is a playful conversation between Rachel and I. It’s about hair – love it or hate it. We talk about it all and most people have an opinion. We actually recorded it months ago but last night inspired me to release it today.  Hair, present or absent on the […] The post To hair or not to hair? appeared first on Sophia Treyger.

“I gathered poets around me and we all wrote beautiful erotica. As we were condemned to focus only on sensuality, we had violent explosions of poetry. Writing erotica became a road to sainthood rather than to debauchery.” ― Anaïs Nin, Delta of Venus No matter how you slice it, sex is hard to talk about […] The post Sex positive world: pornography vs. erotica appeared first on Sophia Treyger.

It's an honor to share time with Kendra in this week's podcast. I was intrigued by Kendra's courage and openness to tell her story to inspire new parents and help them feel connected in community. I believe her side of the birth story is seldom told. There is usually an abundance of celebration and welcoming of new mothers who experience birth as joyful. In fact, women and men are told from the outset that pregnancy and birth are causes for celebration especially if it was difficult to conceive. When any other narrative - such as Kendra's - tries to enter mainstream conversation, it is misunderstood, judged, and painful for others to hear.

Oh boy! I’m pumped to share our latest podcast episode with our special guest, Dr. Joylin Namie (listen below or go to Soundcloud).  Joylin is a vibrant, hilarious, athletic, non-conformist, and candid woman. As a secular woman, she experienced the Mormon culture first hand as a former professor in Utah (she now resides in Oregon).  She was […] The post Boob jobs and the pressure to be hot appeared first on Sophia Treyger.
