There are stories we carry in our bones—experiences too tender, too tangled, too taboo to name out loud. In this episode, we sit quietly beside the grief of miscarriage, the shame of erectile dysfunction, the hush around menopause and lost desire. This is not a conversation about what’s “broken,” but an invitation to meet what’s unspoken.
Because the body always remembers. And sometimes, it whispers when we no longer listen.
When we begin to gently address our shame, to own it, and eventually speak it out loud—we create brave, safe places for others to do the same. This is how we grow stronger. This is how we become a more resilient, connected community.
Join me for a gentle unraveling of what we’ve been taught to hide—so we can feel less alone, more whole, and a little more free.
And if you're new here, I invite you to explore the older episodes too. They may hold even more meaning now, with the world shifting and our hearts hungry for realness.
