Herpes... A sexual death sentence or an invitation for sexual liberation?

Annette & I vote for the latter, and in this conversation, we go all-in on the how & why.

Shaking that herpes stigma and owning your story is a bold and courageous move. So to celebrate Annette coming out of the herpes closet, we decided to share this hugely powerful, intimately insightful, and downright liberating convo on all things sex after herpes.

In this interview we discuss:

- Herpes, what it is & what it is not.
- OCD "clean culture" & why it's toxic to humanity.
- Why you should never Google "Herpes"
- Shame & its effects on the body.
- How to release shame & end shame cycles.
- The energetics of shame & why you won't attract the right person until you deal with it.
- Reframing herpes and ending the blame game.
- How to be responsible & have vulnerable conversations.
- How to be supportive of yourself & others with herpes.
- Ending the stigma and contributing to a shame-free culture (this is so important!).

A worthy watch regardless of your herpes status. It's on all of us to change the way we view and respond to the diagnosis of either ourselves and/or our loved ones.

If you resonate with this interview I encourage you to share it with any friends & family who may need it too. This topic is SO important and the more people's ears we can get it in the better.

Now, listen away my love, and comment with a !! if you're ready to say BYEEEE to the herpes straight jacket and start living a wildly free & abundant sex life - shamelessly.
