Episode notes

Vanessa Marin is a sex therapist and New York Times bestselling author of Sex Talks, the five conversations that will transform your love life. She says we fake orgasms because we're taught so much crap about how our bodies work. Her advice: Come clean to your partner and tell them that you have been faking. And then leave the space for your partner to have their feelings about it.

Sex Therapist Vanessa Marin is back on the pod to discuss how we can all make sex more ENJOYABLE. She shares with us:

How we can stop faking our orgasms and experiment with real pleasure;
How to communicate honestly with our partners about what we want in bed; and
Why masturbation can be an opportunity for self-exploration and reclamation.

She also offers empowering advice for individuals recovering from sexual trauma.

Plus, Glennon contemplates writing erotica.
