Relationships and connection are such an important part of being human, this has been highlighted now more than ever with social isolation due to the coronavirus.

It's also important to remember that the most important relationship we will ever have is with ourselves. Love is not two halves coming together to make a whole, love is two people who accept and love themselves, forming a relationship that enhances who they are with another person.

Today's podcast guest is passionate about women learning to practice self-love and become empowered. With a large community on Instagram, Jessi Abass says "it's all about community and bringing women together to love and support one another instead of comparing ourselves to each other. "

You guys know I'm all about the self-love and the body positive movement to help empower women but we can't always pretend everything is rosy and perfect - that's just not realistic.

Sometimes we look in the mirror and don't like what we see and THAT'S OK! When loving yourself feels out of reach start by trying to reach a place of body acceptance; here's how.

Being empowered and feeling self-confident are some of the many benefits that go along with taking back your body. However, even in today's society, we're taught from a young age that our bodies and sexuality is taboo, but why?

Sexual Empowerment, Confidence Coach and host of the Taking Back Slut Podcast, Jenniffer Doan is calling out the BS when it comes to these "taboo" topics. Jenn believes virginity and gender are social constructs, that sexuality is as fluid as her iced coffee and that everyone deserves to feel empowered by sex.
