Episode notes

Tiffany is speaking about an experience that we had in Nigeria where people struggle to speak about the positivity of their sex. So thinking about, obviously I come from an extremely high privilege place here. And yet I still personally feel so much fear and discomfort when it comes to talking about sex and bodies. You know, I loved your book, Quarky Quick Guide to Having Great Sex. One of the things I think is so powerful about it is you really address that of like, it can feel weird to talk about it, can feel uncomfortable and it's worth pushing through that.

Sex is a normal part of human life, but it can also get complicated–whether you’re having it or not! The way we approach, think, and engage with our sexuality varies widely our culture, community, identity, and more. But one thing we can all strive for is healthy and safe sex. Siphumeze Khundayi and Tiffany Mugo are two sex educators and the co-founders of HOLAAfrica (HOLAA!) a Pan-Africanist digital platform that focuses on creating spaces that deal with safe sex and pleasure. Today they share insights on the kinds of mental and emotional tools we can turn to in order to have great sex, why it’s ok to take small steps on your sexual journey, and why it’s important to take ownership of your pleasure.
