65: It’s Now or Never: How Caitlin Moss Left Purity Culture Behind and Found Her Voice in Romance Novels
Today’s episode of Ditch the Ick is one for the books—literally! 🎉 I’m sitting down with Amazon bestselling romance author Caitlin Moss to talk about her journey from purity culture to writing the spicy stories we all know and love. Caitlin dives deep into the unlearning of shame, the reclaiming of pleasure, and how books (yep, including the steamy ones) can empower us to understand our bodies, our desires, and ourselves.
We’re unpacking:
✨ Growing up in purity culture and how it shaped our mindset (and icks)
✨ Why romance novels are more than just smut—they’re freeing, fun, and female-centered
✨ The shame, the rebellion, and the “now or never” moment that got Caitlin writing
✨ Toys, taboos, and the beauty of learning to embrace pleasure (yes, girl, we go there)
If you’re ready to laugh, reflect, and maybe add a few books to your Kindle library, hit play and let’s ditch the ick together.
