8 myths about sex and grief
- You just want physical touch, not sex
- If you want sex again it means you didn’t love your person of loss
- The first year is the hardest/you shouldn’t have sex the first year
- If you don’t want sex there is something wrong with you
- You should wait for sex until you are done grieving
- If you want sex then you must be trying to escape your grief
- Escaping your grief is wrong
- You can have sex again until it is “the one”
- You aren’t ready to have sex until you don’t have strong emotions

Empowering women (and the partners who love them) to live their best sex lives. Combining the power of mind-work, body-science and relationships, I joyously smash the societal barriers that are keeping us from living our best intimate lives. Whether you are young or past menopause, single or in a long-term relationship, it is never too late or too early to realize YOU ARE NOT BROKEN. With humor, candor and ease, I break down the stories that we have been told about being sexual beings, to help us play, and normalize our intimacy. Nothing in this podcast is personal medical advice, of course.
