QUICKIES: A Modern Sex Column brought to you by Bedside. This week I’m thrilled to introduce a new and improved mini series to the podcast called Quickies. Featuring relationship and manifestation expert Amanda Blair! Each month, Amanda and I will join you in conversation where we merge our expertise and bring forward real life scenarios in the name of sex, love, and relationships. Expect tips and advice on how to navigate what we’re never really taught much about, musing on what we’re witnessing and experiencing within our own worlds of sex & love, manifestation, neuroscience, and more. On this month’s episode Amanda and I will be covering our thoughts on “Getting back into the Scene”.

!!ATTN: A lovely listener pointed out to us a correction on the topic of herpes that we discuss during this episode. HSV1 orally CAN be passed genitally but it does NOT change to HSV2. It is just HSV1 genitally. So if someone with coldsore (HSV1), has oral sex, they can pass HSV1 to their genitals. But is doesn't become HSV2.

On the episode today we cover:

Getting back into the IRL world
Who we've become in the past year+
Re-entry into the dating world
How we can date more intentionally
Unpacking the old blueprint for dating
Disclosing health statuses
Our own experiences with STIs & disclosure
How to have better sexual health conversations
