Redefining Us
This podcast is all about redefining what it means to be a woman in today's culture where women are breaking those glass ceilings and coming into their own. In this podcast we will be exploring womanhood in all its facets, including sexual desire, parenthood, relationships with one another, pregnancy, postpartum, our relationships with our bodies, the media, and more. So if you're like me and want to learn, grow, heal and break those freaking ceilings please tune in and join the conversation ladies.
Tune in every other week to hear our guests and myself share information about mental health, their personal stories and other interesting topics that relate to being a woman.
Your host Stephanie Konter-O’Hara is a mom, an entrepreneur, a therapist, a woman that enjoys exploring new things and ways of thinking.

12. Embracing Pleasure and Redefining Sexuality with Dr. Rosalyn Dischiavo
What does embracing pleasure look like as a woman whether your a woman without kids, a mom, a woman in menopause, a grandmother, etc? In this conversation with Dr. Rosalyn Dischiavo, founder of the Institute for Sexuality Education and Enlightenment and author of The Deep Yes: The Lost Art of True Receiving, she shares her personal and professional journey into sex education and therapy, exploring the profound intersections of sexual health, mental well-being, and personal identity. She dives into her story of overcoming infertility, pursuing a doctoral degree, and the importance of integrating pleasure and desire into our holistic health practices.
Rosalyn reflects on how societal messages, like the Madonna-whore complex and hustle culture, inhibit our ability to truly experience life’s joys like enjoying a sunset or embracing intimacy. She wants us to rethink our relationship with pleasure and provides actionable insights for cultivating deeper connections with themselves and our partners.
This is a conversation that goes beyond sex. It’s about reclaiming wholeness, honoring our bodies, and redefining how we show up in the world.
