This episode is for you if you’ve tried tantric massage, yoni eggs, crystal wands sex coaching, or all the toys... and it just didn’t work. I explain possibly why they didn't, why you're not broken, and how I work instead.

In this episode I cover:

• How frustrating and shame-inducing it can feel when sex becomes a chore instead of a source of pleasure.
• How seeing all the “multi-orgasmic tantric goddess” content on Instagram can make you feel even more broken when your body just says “nope.”
• Why these tools or techniques might not have worked for you -- especially if you come from purity culture, a religious or traumatic background, or just years of feeling disconnected from your body.
• My own experience with chronic illness and how I learned to listen to the part of me that resisted healing.
• How resistance, numbness, or shutdown are actually protective responses, not failures.
• How your body may still associate sex and pleasure with danger, and why advice like “just masturbate more” often misses the point.
• How so many of us — especially women — were conditioned to override our needs and to ignore our “no.”
• Why learning where your true yes and no live in your body is foundational for sexual healing.
• I invite you to befriend your numbness, to listen to the silence, and to trust that it’s full of information and wisdom.
• How purity culture, misogyny, and a hyper-sexualized society both feed our shame and distort what “liberation” should look like.
• Why being told to do things like go to a swingers club or buy a crystal wand can feel off -- and why that’s okay.
• Agency, consent, and reclaiming your sexuality on your own terms.
• Social media censorship and how women’s voices around sexuality are still being silenced.
• You are not broken, your body holds deep wisdom, and your pleasure is yours to reclaim.

Quotes:

"The part of you that resists healing is not your enemy—it’s where the gold is.""Your numbness, your shutdown, your freeze—they’re not failures. They’re your body trying to keep you safe.”
