I'm so happy to have storyteller and audio producer Allison Behringer on the podcast this week. She’s the creator of a podcast called BODIES. We talk about her podcast Bodies, what the process of making it taught her, and why women telling their stories about their bodies is so cathartic. This is an intimate episode. We've talked about sex a lot on this show but in this episode you’ll hear me let it out on something I was particularly scared to share. I had a lot of shame around the fact that I had vaginismus. It's a condition making sex painful or difficult. Brené Brown says shame can’t exist when it’s shared and I think that’s why personal storytelling are so wonderful. We talk about why telling personal stories is so important, community, the importance of mothers and daughters talking about sex, and much more in this conversation.
