There's no shame in it.... 

Joining Meg for the first half of this week’s educational and inspirational episode is entrepreneur and author Nadya Okamoto. Nadya is the co-founder of August, which provides sustainable, impactful, and inclusive period care; founder of Period Movement; author of Period Power; and host of Tigress Podcast. Meg and Nadya discuss period and sex stigmas and misinformation, along with the dire need and importance of sex education.

Next, Meg welcomes powerhouse Shan Boodram to the program. Shan is a certified intimacy educator, author of The Game of Desire, host and executive producer of Sexology (Quibi), and soon to be co-host alongside Andy Cohen on Ex-Rated, a new dating show airing on Peacock this fall. Shan shares her favorite onscreen sex scenes, stories from her journey as a sex educator, and drops some serious knowledge that you won’t want to miss.
