It can be embarrassing or sometimes produce feelings of shame to talk about sex. But sexual health is an important part of our well-being.

In today's episode, we are joined by sex educator Gabrielle Kassel. Gabrielle is a member of the queer community, podcaster of her sex-positive show Bad in Bed and specializes in working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community. Gabrielle is a journalist (currently working for the Morning Chalk Up) who works to bridge her passion for CrossFit with her passion for sexual health and empowerment.

Some of the topics we go through today are
- sexual health issues we see in the CrossFIt community
- how to have conversations when sex hurts
- opening lines of communication to talk to your partner about sex
- sexual health issues in the queer community
- how to explore sexuality when coming from a sexual health background

Resources Gabrielle and Christina highlighted were
- Pure -Linda Kay Brown
- Come as You Are - Emily Nagoski
-  Principles of Pleasure - Netflix
- Table Topics Esther Perel
- Sex Educator Rachel Wright
