Today, I’m sharing two deeply personal and intimate sexual experiences. There’s almost a decade difference in timelines between events, so you can learn that confidence, expression, boundaries and embodiment can be birthed FROM the hurt and the pain of being silenced.  Listen to hear: How I got to the point that I am unafraid to stop a man during sex when I’m no longer enjoying it The shifts I made that led to relationships with men who respect me more when I communicate my boundaries Why ignoring your guilt and shame will keep you stuck in toxic relationships My hand-written journal prompts so that you can reflect on your personal boundaries, self-worth and limiting beliefs and finally move forward Prefer YouTube?
