Show Notes
This is Part 1 of a 2-Part series.
Part 1 is about (Episode 7) The messages we receive about sex when we're young and Part 2 is (Episode 8) Tips on initiating sex and dealing with rejection in relationships. Both of these episodes were born from a place of frustration with Ellen's own libido, sexual shame, self worth and vulnerability. They contain her experiences and tools used for growth in sex/pleasure and also the things she's learned from listening to others experiences.
In this episode we talk about libido (sexual desires), shame around our bodies, and unpack the messages Ellen received about sex at a young age. Ellen has also created a tool that she will walk through, in order to help listeners uncover their own messages — in hopes that they give up their own sexual shame.
