In this profound and tender episode, Lauren Elise Rogers—Certified Holistic Sexuality Educator and Embodied Intimacy & Relationship Coach—invites us into the raw, human process of healing sexual shame, reconnecting to our bodies, and reclaiming pleasure.
With honesty and grace, Lauren shares her personal journey from a purity-culture upbringing and a traumatic marriage to becoming an internationally recognized voice for embodied sexuality and emotional liberation. We explore the healing power of self-pleasure, somatic practices, attachment cycles, and how to gently reconnect with your body after trauma.
Whether you’ve struggled with sexual shame, religious conditioning, or feeling disconnected from your own body, this conversation is packed with compassionate tools, empowering questions, and reminders that you are not broken—and healing is always possible.

"Healing sex—partnered or solo—is a restoration of right relationship, a return to wholeness."
