Good news ladies! If you haven’t figured it out yet, there’s sex of all kinds for us to enjoy, and it’s not all about His parts. There’s much more to sex than penetration, his pleasure, and the nonsensical pressure to perform like a porn star in the bedroom every night.

This episode is dedicated to a happier, healthier sex life for the empowered badass woman that’s prioritizing her health and well-being.

Depending on your background, religious beliefs, and parental tolerance for the conversation of sex, you may not realize the sex-pectations society has pushed on you or the reason your sex drive is non-existent some days.

Dr. Jolene Brighton is the sex-ed doc we all wish our younger selves had (but you’ve got her now, so pay attention!) She’s the author of the book we all need to check out, Is This Normal? Judgment Free Straight Talk About Your Body. She’s a clinical sexologist helping women, a.k.a. “vulva owners” get answers to the questions they dare not say allowed or in mixed company.

In this episode Lisa’s putting aside all the shame and embarrassment to get the takeaways every woman needs to hear today:


Why sex drive is the top complaint women have, and all the things we do to ruin it

If you didn’t have a big enough reason to practice mindfulness, having orgasm may be the best reason yet

The unnecessary shame for women around pleasing their partner and having to make their own lubrication or else

What Arousal Non-Concordance is and the fight between your brain and genitals

Why size does actually matter (a lot)


Male centric messages about sex have been screwing up our sex lives, our pleasure and our health.We’ve got a lot of messages wrong about porn, about orgasms, and about intimacy. You can start here and now with an upgraded sex-ed class that prioritizes your sexual pleasure not his!

QUOTES:

“Working on your hormones is easier than working on your relationship.”

“Because we put that word sex drive on everything makes people feel like no, but this is something I have to be doing. And that pressure alone, that puts a lot of women out of the mood. 

“It's going to take stimuli for your brain to start registering sex for you to start getting into the mood.”

“body image issues can not only put you out of the mood, but it can stop your arousal.”

“The secret to living longer is good sex and lots of pleasure.”

“It's very short sighted for us to only be talking about hormones. I say that as a hormone doctor, in that women are much more complex than that.”

“If your body's in survival mode for any reason, even if it's just because you have a stressful job, you're not going to want to be in the mood, you're gonna have a harder time having pleasurable sex…”

“If she orgasms before penetration, she is more likely to have an orgasm during penetrative sex.”

“As women we are challenged with almost an impossible task, which is loving ourselves and being confident in our bodies and being confident in our relationships. Well, we are inundated from messages in our society that constantly tell us that we're not good enough that we are the problem.”

“In anything you do, consent can always be revoked.” 

“if you think about just how much people are shamed about their bodies in general, and then you take it to the genitals, and it's a whole next level”
