What if your desire isn’t broken — it’s just been misunderstood?

 In this episode, Dr. Ginger Garner sits down with Dr. Laurie Mintz, psychologist and author of Becoming Cliterate, to talk about women’s pleasure, desire, and the science behind feeling truly connected to your body.

They explore why so many women feel disconnected from sex, how shame and stress impact desire, and what it really takes to feel safe, present, and fulfilled in intimacy. If you’ve ever wondered why pleasure feels out of reach or why your body doesn’t respond the way you expect, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, informed, and empowered.
