In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Tracy Meyer—a psychology professor, mom, and longtime educator who’s spent over 20 years teaching young adults about sexuality, development, and the things lots of mothers forgot to mention.

We talk about the gaps in sex education, the myths still floating around, and how we can all do better—whether we’re raising kids or trying to understand our own bodies.

Here’s what we cover:

• What many young adults still don’t understand about sex and anatomy
• The surprising impact of using correct language for body parts early on
• How to start age-appropriate conversations about puberty and sex
• Why shame-free education leads to healthier kids (and adults)
• Resources we wish we had growing up

Dr. Meyer brings practical, thoughtful insight—with a good bit of humor—into how we can raise more informed, confident kids…even if we’re still learning ourselves.
