Show Notes
As most of us have realized by now, sex education is sorely lacking in the US and most of the rest of the world! What we learn from most religions is a sex negative message—that there are a lot of rules about who you can have sex with, when you can have sex with them and what kind of sex acts are ok. Schools typically try to scare us into abstinence with talks about STIs and unwanted pregnancy. And then add in legislation in the US that targets LGBTQ people and women in a way that makes sex and love more difficult.
It’s no wonder we’ve got some baggage around this topic, huh?
If you’re ready to drop your sex-negative suitcases in the trash and relearn intimacy from a sex-positive perspective, listen in!
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Ways in which Heather (and maybe you too!) experienced sex-negativity in her upbringing
- The beginner’s mind: Wiping the slate clean of sex-negativity
- Building your own sex-positive belief set and putting it into practice.
- Self-Coaching Model of Life Coach School: How to apply thought work to create change in your sex life
