Welcome back to the Owning Your Sexual Self podcast! I am so excited to have Dr. Aly Ash back on the show today! Aly is a Stanford lecturer, an author, and the founder of TurnON Love, and she has such a natural way of bringing clarity and compassion to topics that people often feel confused or ashamed about. In this episode we are talking about anorgasmia. What it actually is, why it shows up, and how much more is possible when we shift the focus toward pleasure and safety instead of pressure. 

In this episode:

  • What anorgasmia is and why it is more common than people think
  • How orgasm works in the body and why it is a full body experience
  • Some factors that can affect orgasm
  • The nervous system’s role in pleasure and why safety matters
  • Ways to build more pleasure, comfort, and sensitivity in the body
  • When it might be time to seek professional support
  • A fun lightning round answering common orgasm questions

Thank you so much for listening!  Don't forget to share on your social media and tag me if you loved this episode!

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
