Ep 74: Knowledge is Power: Retell your Narrative No Shame. Eve Eurydice w the Shameless Psychiatrist

Eve Eurydice speaks with Dr. Lea Lis, best known as the shameless psychiatrist, author of the book “No Shame: Real Talk with Your Kids.” Dr. Lis shares healthy ways out of our fear & shame. Our discomfort with sex is the result of the narrative of shame that tells us that sex involves loss disease trauma; this narrative leads people to self-medicate in order to be sexual with each other because all our formative cultural messages tell us Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t (often in the voices of our parents!) even though we are all hard wired to be sexual & to experience consensual sex as pleasure. Society puts up barriers to adulthood. Sexual initiation feels unsafe throughout a person’s life. Systemic change requires not only individuals seeking therapy or coaching or advice, but us as a society to make a mass change that eliminates peer pressure, generational prohibitions, intersectional disrespect etc. For more, go to https://speakwithEve.com or http://www.youtube.com/speaksexwithEveEurydice/ More about Dr. Lea https://www.drlealis.com  Support Eurydice at https://anchor.fm/speaksex/support?ref=radiopublic --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/speaksex/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/speaksex/support
