Hi Friends!

This episode we're continuing our discussion of the book Come As You Are by Emily Nagoski and we're tackling some tough topics. Did you know that 1/5 women will experience a form of sexual assault in their lifetime? That means we need to talk about sexual trauma & boundaries. Listen this week as I share what some experts say (and my own 2 cents) about consent, coercion & healing from sexual trauma.
