What do you do when you haven’t had sex in years, you’re living with an ostomy, and suddenly a gorgeous, wealthy, semi-famous man starts giving you serious attention? In this episode of Rewired & Desired, Trina Ricketts (The Intimate Ostomate) walks co-host Nicole Richards through a live intimacy coaching session about:

  • dating with an ostomy
  • self-worth and “why would he want me?” thoughts
  • fears about being ghosted after sex
  • how long celibacy shapes your choices
  • whether to wait for “the one” or seize the moment
  • reframing power so you choose how your body and intimacy are shared
