We invited Amanda Luterman, psychotherapist with a special interest in sexuality, to take a break from her busy private practice to come chat with us for a Bed Talks Valentine’s episode about erotic confidence and expressing our sexual natures. This Columbia graduate with an MA, MEd in counselling psychology definitely has a knack for talking comfortably around taboo topics, and brings light to very normal, yet often shamed experiences and fears that come up for many of us.

A fascinating take on sexuality from a pro, Amanda introduces us to many new concepts like erotic empathy, autophilia and sexual social capital. We talk about communication and unblocking our throat chakras and the importance of feeling safe with a sexual partner. We share stories about self-betrayal, honouring your body, power dynamics, and how fear and shame manifest in your body and create disconnects that will deeply affect your physical, emotional and mental well-being. 

Our longest episode yet (!) Amanda gives us tons of food for thought around topics we can’t wait to explore further. We want this episode to leave you feeling curious and inspired to connect with yourself and explore eroticism through this more compassionate lens, keeping you on your path towards empowerment and fulfillment. We have a good feeling it will encourage a new perspective and personal growth within any new or existing relationships you have.

Enjoy! And feel free to share this podcast with someone who might appreciate the message.
