Hello! Welcome back to Owning Your Sexual Self! This week I’m so excited to welcome Brianna Carey back to the show! Bri is a certified relationship and intimacy coach, a sexual health educator, and the co host of the Intimacy Evolution podcast, and she brings so much to conversations about desire and communication. She’s the person who first introduced me to speaking from desire, and every time I’m in her energy I walk away seeing relationships a little differently.
In this episode:
- What it means to speak from desire instead of blame or pressure
- Why direct requests can sometimes feel demanding
- How desire based language creates more openness
- The difference between desire and expectation
- Simple everyday examples of speaking from desire
- Why assumptions create disconnection
- Common blocks like fear of being too much or rejected
- The importance of practicing this skill over time instead of aiming for perfection

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.
