Self-Led Sexuality: Creating Healthy Intimacy & Connection - with Patricia Rich
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Even if you did receive sex ed in middle school, that education probably did not include information on how to actually relate to your sexuality in a healthy way.
This week, I’m talking with Patricia Rich about:
- What Self-Led sexuality is and why it’s important.
- Why authentically expressing ourselves sexually is often really difficult.
- Internal consent and the importance of checking in with ourselves before connecting sexually with another person.
- The relationship between shame and sexuality.
- How to talk to your partner about your sex life.
- Tips for figuring out what you want— and don’t want— during sex.
