Most of us weren’t taught how to talk about sex — not in our training, not in our workplaces, and often not even in our own lives. Yet sex is one of the biggest issues couples struggle with, and one of the hardest topics for healthcare and therapy professionals to raise.

In this first episode of Our Patients Are Having Sex, Couples Therapist and Sexologist Isiah McKimmie shares why avoiding these conversations comes at such a cost — and what changes when we begin to have them.

You’ll hear:

• Why so many professionals avoid talking about sex, and what the research says about it

• The impact silence has on clients, patients, and their relationships

• The benefits of healthy, connected relationships (and why sex matters for wellbeing)

• Isiah’s personal journey from “shy country girl” to therapist and sexologist

• What to expect from future episodes of Our Patients Are Having Sex

Because the truth is, people everywhere are having sex… or they’re struggling with it. And it’s time we started talking about it.
